Apron

CONTEST HAS ENDED!! CONGRATULATIONS TO MRS. PETRIE OF CASA PETRIE ON WINNING THE HANDMADE APRON!!

It's Hooked on Fridays and I'm hooked on APRONS!! So much so, I recently started making them!! See that one up there? It's an original design of mine!!

You know, aprons have been around for a pretty long time, but they are now making a huge comeback! Back in the day I don't know that they weren't just for looks, but nowadays you want something that isn't just pretty, but FUNCTIONAL, too!!

That's why I opened an Etsy Shop and can now offer you those FUNCTIONAL and pretty aprons!! Today is my Grand Opening! Check it out here!

In celebration of all of this, I'm offering not only free shipping through Sunday, June 14th when you purchase something from my store, but also, leave a comment to this post and register yourself to win the Apron pictured above!! No purchase necessary and the winner will be drawn at random and annouced Sunday!!

In your comment, tell me why you love aprons!

In the mean time, visit Hooked on Houses and Fifi's Fashionable Friday to see what everyone else is lovin' on this fantabulous Friday!!

Nice design. The pocket is necessary and the towel looks to be very handy. Good luck on your Etsy store. I admire your gumption!

I have a couple of aprons. I love them. They are both sexy and Mrs. Beaver-ish in a way aren't they? Oh and they keep food off of you!

I love Italian food, but it obviously loves me too, because I always get tomato splashes on my clothes when cooking (and I obviously stand too close to the stove!).

I think I need to wear more aprons - especially when the look this good!
