It’s already time to start thinking about what you’ll be crafting for the new apple of your eye: your Little. If you’re like me, you already have a spot in your heart for them just waiting to be filled. That being said, you would want them to have the best possible big little reveal. Thinking outside of the box to take the ordinary to a new level will make all the difference.
Tile Mosaic Picture Frame for All the Future Adventures.
A picture frame is a must-have in any reveal basket. This project is time consuming but the result is a beautiful, handmade frame that is completely personalized.
You’ll need a plain frame that is preferably flat, mosaic tile glue, grout in any color you’d like, and of course tiles. You can purchase pre-cut tile or make your own by smashing anything ceramic. Your first step is to place the tiles one-by-one and tightly together with a dab of the tile glue. You can create designs using the different colors or textures of tile. I recommend letting the tiled frame sit to dry for at least a day to make sure everything is completely dry before you start grouting. After your grout is prepared, completely cover the tiles with a thin (or non-existent) layer over the tiles and a thick layer between. The end product should not have dried grout over the tiles but a damp washcloth or paper towel will get everything off.
‘Emergency’ Kit to Make It Through the First Year.
The first year, whether it be at WSU or the first year in the sorority, is always hard. You don’t have as much time as you once did and you’re a million miles away from your hometown. You can go full out and get a big plastic container, or you can try a smaller version with a pencil container. Good things to include are airplane sized deodorant and perfume along with chapstick and makeup. Don’t forget to include the morning-after-a-hard-night-out cures such as Advil, Pepto-Bismol, and whatever other goodies you can get your hands on. Tape inside some encouraging notes or an explanation of the contents of the kit.

Quick and Easy Wall Planner for Sorority Events.
Out of all crafts, this has to be the least time consuming. All you need is a seven-frame picture frame, scrapbook paper that fits in the frames, and dry erase markers. You can easily get scrapbooking letters and add the days of the week. Simply put the paper into the frames and you have a seven-day calendar that will fit on any dorm wall. This is perfect for those who are a little OCD about their events, or even those who need a little help planning their week.
