Apron love

February 14th, 2009

I have meant to blog about these for a while now, but it wasn’t until I learned a new word yesterday that I remembered. Pinnilet – meaning a half apron or mini-pinny. Love it! Not sure what score you would get at scrable with that one, but nevermind!
I have uploaded some of my aprons to Flickr – if you want to see some more, go and pop over there.

This is a detail of one of the first aprons I was given – a lovely birthday present from my best friend Rach. Daren’t cook much in it in case I stain it!


I love this one – it’s plastic and quite discoloured on the trim, no matter how much I have washed it. But the poodles….. got to love them!


I actually thought this was a bit of fabric, and was quite prepared to cut it up, then saw how nice it was and couldn’t, despite the fact that I am too tall for most of the full length aprons I have – the waist ends up being rather empire line…

I love this fabric, and the pointy hem, and huge pockets!

Another pretty one, and I think the nicest thing is the amount of flare it has.

Pretty Geisha pockets on one I found for 50p….

And my favourite – love the window boxes on the pockets, and it’s so comfy with a long tie at the waist.

I don’t care if people laugh at me when I wear them – when they’re as nice as this, and protect your clothes, with pockets to carry round little bits, who cares! xoxo
