DIY Big/Little Crafts On A Budget
Her Campus

If you're taking the time to read this article, I'm sure you understand how expensive being in a sorority may be at times. Taking a little is such an honor and we all want to spoil them as much as we can, so I put together a short list of crafts on a budget to give them!

1. DIY stitch

I watched a few youtube videos, picked my favorite fabrics, and started sewing! These cost a total of $4.20.

2. Cork board!

I have a cork board in my room that I use almost daily so surely my little needs one too! You can find these for $8-$12 dollars, add a little paint, or slap some flowers on it from the dollar store at there you have it!

3. SHOEEEESS!!

Who doesn't love shoes, right?! Walmart sells plain white shoes for $5, add paint and then you have personalized big & little shoes!

4. Reveal day shirts!

Let's be real you'll probably only wear these once, theres no need to spend an arm and a leg to make your family match. I got shirts from Walmart for $4 each, and you guess it, added paint!

5. Tie Blanket

My big gave me a tie blanket and I use it ALL the time, it was a must for my little! In total for two yards of fabric I spent $11!

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
