Fabulous Apron Finds Friday

Yes I know, posting late in the day seems to be becoming a trend. *sigh*

Anyhoo, today is all about aprons! :o) Have you noticed how much aprons have come back in style? It's not just for us "vintage apron fanatics" anymore. It's become soooo "tres chic"! I've always liked aprons myself. I have some vintage ones including one that is made out of a flour sack and hangs in my pantry. Hmmm, guess I should have taken a pic? :oP

So without further ado, here are some of my favourite new apron designers.

Heavenly Hostess has so many wonderful apron designs from halter to cocktail to gardening, you just have to check them out! Here is one of my faves which happens to be a gardening apron, however I don't have a garden and I'd buy it anyway. :o)



Sommer Designs doesn't have as many choices but what she does have is simple, classic and fresh. I find it hard to choose a favorite since most of her aprons are made from my favourite designer fabrics!



Another apron designer I love is Megan of Creative Outlet Designs! I've been coveting her cherry polkadot apron for some time now. Drool!




And last but not least is Carolyn's Kitchen. Carolyn West(as seen in Adorn) offers vintage-inspired aprons and matching glove sets. How fun is that! Don't miss the giveaway to win this fun Dorothy apron & glove set over at The Apronista!



Other places to find hip handmade aprons are ETSY & eBay. Have fun and have a fantastic weekend! :o)

I love the aprons!!!

I was born in Honolulu - so my parents thought it'd be a good idea for me to take part of the islands with me always. My first name (Ariana) - was because my dad saw it in Time (it was an article on the French rocket - Ariann) and thought it sounded cool. You have no idea how much flack I get b/c I live in the Rocket City (Huntsville,AL - von Braun started the US rocket program here - and the Space & Rocket Center and Space Camp are here).

Sorry for the long post. :)

I love the aprons you posted pictures of.
I keep meaning to make myself an apron - I love making fairy cakes and I keep throwing the flour down myself!!! It's not good lol

When I was a young adult, I wore aprons regularly. Loved them. But after I started a family it seemed I was just gonna get dirty all the time anyway, so why bother. My entire wardrobe was just one big "apron". Now that I have no little people (well, 'cept grandkids) any more, I've rediscovered aprons. Or rather, I keep rediscovering them. I wear them for a while and then put them away and forget, and then find them again and...

Thanks for stopping in and commenting. The Wizard of Oz was and still is one of my favorites, too.
