Call it Nostalgia but Aprons are Making a Comeback!

On this page you will find patterns for aprons to make yourself. You will also find aprons for painters, nail techs, candle makers, children, boys and men. There are frilly aprons already made and links to mother daughter aprons. Mostly it is designed to show art aprons. If your an artist, a gardener, a baker or just looking for aprons for kids to do crafts you come to the right place. Aprons and paint smocks are great for gifts too. I love the frilly aprons for the kitchen and easy to get into aprons for painting. There are lots of patterns available for vintage aprons and a unlimited supply of childrens aprons.

As an artist, I am constantly using aprons when I paint, work with clay and for various reasons. When I have little one over and we get ready to make art I noticed there is a rush to get to the apron tray to pick a favorite one. That reminded me that aprons are important. So I put together this page to help make some apron choices. Let's take a look at a few shall we?

Conjuring Up An Apron

As soon as you mention the word "apron", grandmother comes to mind. The words are inseparable. Little girls in the kitchen wearing grannies apron or the memory of grandma wearing her apron as she prepared meals and did things around the house.

Aprons have come a long way since grandma wore them. But never doubt the aprons grandma wore were the top style of the day. Handmade, sack cloth or made of towels. They served their purpose.

Todays aprons for ladies are a little sexier. Many are worn for much more than cooking in the kitchen. We are going to talk about artist's aprons but they may be used for whatever you can imagine.

Aprons Will Make You a Superwoman!

I wear my aprons mostly every day now. I collect them, in different colors and configurations so as to be pleasing to my senses. I have come to believe they are a like lacy bits of lingerie, only worn on the outside, and a quite a bit more respectable.

When I put on my aprons the children mind me better, wandering visitors immediately know my role as a mom. Door to door religious missionaries assume I am a virtuous woman and cheerfully move on to the next house. The hubby gives me extra hugs and kisses and says I'm the cutest granny he knows, and grandchildren hug me so much more often.

I like my aprons. They have changed my life, raised my standards, inspired me to greater feats and make me more effective as a artist! My! Whoever thought that a few dollars worth of fabric and lace could effect so many changes on one woman and one family? Since my success with aprons I have become a true believer. Aprons have made me a superwoman!

Good Uses for Aprons

www.FlirtyAprons.com

Feeding Your Children: We put bibs on them and protect our floors, but you know as well as we do, that spaghetti doesn't always stay on the plate!

During Arts & Crafts: You could be doing a project yourself or helping your little ones, either way little bits of string, glue, paper, feathers and glitter and markers are kept at bay when you've got yourself covered!

While Doing The Dishes: Having kids in the kitchen for clean up is a great way to learn responsibility, but it can lead to other messes. Be ready for water over sprays (or an "accidental" water fight!).

In The Garden: It's a great way when you're on your own in the garden, but even better when you have little ones at your side with little (and usually muddy) fingers just waiting to be wiped... somewhere.

During Bath Time: Keep the bubbles and splashing down to a minimum with an apron in the bathroom. It's also a great thing to put on when washing the family pet, inside or out!

While Cooking and Cleaning: This is when you would normally put on an apron and for good reason! It's nice to know your new jeans won't receive any extra overspray from cleansers or even non stick spray in the kitchen!

    I like the blank ones that you can decorate yourself. I have a wonderful apron with the handprints of my children on it.

Custom Designed Chile Apron

This great silk screened apron features pockets all along the bottom. They were born because they matched the chile candles and other chile items that are so popular in New Mexico. "Mama and Papa Chile Apron" is an original design by Pat Hostetter of H & L Biz and Arts. She designs the aprons and images and screen prints them herself. She sews all that fabric into something actually wearable and makes them one size fits all! Good Lord! I'm already out of breath! Did I mention she is in her 70's? She has a lot more apron designs you can see here:

The Apron Museum

"Aprons are art and history and reflect the economic times," says Terry, 60, who has collected 2,200 vintage aprons and honors the practical wraps at The Apron Museum in downtown Iuka.

I'll bet you had no idea there was an apron museum. Gosh! That's great! I hope I am in her will.

Silk Screened Kachina Apron

A Unique Designed Kachina Apron from the Southwest!

This silk screened apron is made of durable material and has a lot to offer in the way of color and contrasting designs. These handcrafted treasures are made in silk screened designs are a glitterly color that sparkles! The aprons come in lots of colors and features pockets on both sides with little petrogyph images dancing around coholing you to, "Make something, make something!" Gosh! I feel guilty already!

I have one in a dusty rose color and I get so many compliments on it, but that is what I get for wearing it out in public.

You won't find this at the local walmart because they are custom made and created by H & L Enterprises of Albuquerque. They manufacture and design lots of great stuff for Southwest Art Collectors and unsuspecting tourists.
