I just love aprons–I truly do not own enough of them! But they are the sort of thing that I don’t tend to buy for myself terribly often. I should, and in the future I probably will, but so far, I’ve been too practical. (Ironically! LOL!) I tend to own aprons that I can toss in the wash, because I use aprons for their original purpose–to attract the splatter. (I’m a bit of a messy cook.)
Anyway, while toodling around on Etsy, I came across these beauties. They are probably too cute to survive my kitchen for long, but I do love them… and thought I’d share a few of my favorites. (If you want to see where to buy them, just click the photo.)

I own two aprons much like this one–pastel pink and pastel yellow. They have survived surprisingly well, but whatever shirt I wear with them, doesn’t. ๐

I don’t know why, but this one makes me feel happy just looking at it. ๐ Maybe it’s because it looks like it’s been starched.

This one is so pretty that my morbid imagination immediately goes to my splattering, simmering spaghetti sauce.
Would you use a pretty, frilly apron? Or is it not practical enough to survive your kitchen, either?

I love these. They’re too pretty to use when cooking.
Thanks for the reblog! ๐ And I totally agree.
I’d definitely use one.
Some I’d be afraid to use for messy cooking, but I’m going to have to buy myself a really nice apron for making muffins, or something. ๐
When I was a little girl, I used my grandmother’s aprons to play “dress up.”
Such a sweet memory! ๐
