Random question about badge guards....

[misscherrypie]

Sisters,
I've discovered that I have an issue. My Ritual of Jewels badge has an attached torch guard, and when I received my Corresponding Secretary guard last Founder's Day, I attached it to my pledge pin (since I was still a pledge at the time... and it had no guard) and then moved it to my new badge when I got that. Now that I am a City Council officer and have a corresponding guard for my office with them....I can't figure out what to do with the new guard. I've read the instructions on the sister's only side of the website on how to wear the badge and where to position *ONE* guard, but it doesn't have any information on where to position *multiple* guards!

Do we just wear the "highest ranked" guard or only the guards for the offices that we currently hold on our badges, or is there a way to situate multiple guards without it looking gaudy? I know that I'll be given another guard at next Founder's Day for the new chapter office that I am being installed into shortly and this will be an issue. I love them all and am proud to wear them....but I'd like everything to look neat and tidy as well.

Thanks!

Could you get a badge holder and pin your badge, guards and dangles to it? That way you could just attach the badge holder to your clothing instead of individual pins et al. I feel like I have seen this before in photos of BSP members.

^I will look in my crafting box and see if I have some felt and a pin to create something like this. It would definitely save my clothes from being pocked with pin marks!

You could also give it a magnetic backing, similar to name badges. That way you wouldn't even have to mess with a pin.

I do have a roll tape of magnet strips! As well as the necessary materials.

Thanks for the idea.
