follow the arrow.

If you weren't already aware, I was totally in a sorority. Did you like that use of "totally?" Good. When I was in school, Pi Phi's were known for halo-ing each other and were referred to as "angels," but recently I've started seeing the girls use the official symbol, the arrow. I've always loved the arrow, but honestly, I could not remember why it was our symbol or what it stands for... I know, bad member!

Pi Phi's symbol, the arrow, is worn on a badge and always aimed up and worn over the heart to represent Pi Phi's permanent place in a member's heart. This arrow can also be found on Parker pens and Wrigley's gum, displaying Mrs. Wrigley's and Mrs. Parker's dedication to their sorority.

I obviously don't wear my arrow badge on a daily basis, but I recently bought this bracelet from Stella & Dot as a little reminder of my college days, and all of the fun that was had & the friendships that were made. How cute would this bracelet be as a napkin ring? 6, please!

Stella & Dot - $39

Got me thinking, how can I incorporate more arrows into my home? I've see lots of interesting arrow-themed tattoos circulating on Pinterest (yuck!), but I do admit they are inspirational. Here's what I found!

These rustic and vintage-inspired metal arrows would be so much fun hanging on a wall or sitting on a bookshelf - $40.
