Wearing an apron, especially an old apron, always connects me with the past in a strange way. I have memories of my mom and grandmothers, as far back as great-grandmothers, in the kitchen preparing meals, making snacks, washing dishes and hanging clothes on the line, all with an apron tied around their waste. So when I wear one, I feel like one of them and I like that.
I was given several as gifts when I first got married and have collected more through the years. The old ones are always handmade and have their own personalities, reflecting those who created them.
Here are a few of the ones I've collected for my Etsy Shop. I love all the details.
Cotton Prints...
Scalloped boarders...
Ruffled pockets...
Gathered waste bands...
Rick Rack...
Hand Embroidery...
They're all so fun!
Grab an apron! Cook something yummy for someone you love and conjure up some memories!
Hoping you have a great day and wonderful weekend!
