Help me pick an apron, please!

[JennifersLost]

I've narrowed it down to four choices, but can't decide - which one do you like best????

#1. It manages to be both vintage and hip.

Added: If I were picking for myself, I think I'd pick this one:

[Mom2legomaniacs]

I'll vote for #1 too. I love the cherries on one of them. I've had my eye on that one for a while now!

[BeachGirl]

I love number 1:iagree:. It looks very retro. All of them are cute though. Good luck with your decision.

[chickenpatty]

I like #2 in red/pink!

[RebeccaC]

I have never ever wanted an apron until I saw your page and Oh my :ohmy: I want one now :D Just in time for my bday too.

Anyway I like #3 the pink purple but I like the sunflowers too....... and I like # 2 and looked at their site and could drop a fortune there if I had one;) and sadly I don't but oh what fun looking.

[Amy loves Bud]

Another vote for numero uno. Though number two has a very cute Rosie the Riveter look to it.

I like #4 the sunflowers. Pink and apron just don't go together in my mind, my first thought on #1 was that it looked like lingerie(did I spell that right?) and the 3rd one looks more like a sundress. The vintage set of three looked looks cute if you are leaning towards something vintage.

I have purchased aprons from World Market.

Let us know what you decide you may have started a trend here.....

[Once]

Three for me! Very cute.

#2

[Laura in VA]

but they are all cute!

[JennifersLost]

If I was smart I would have done this as a poll!

[Rich with Kids]

I like #1, as well. It kinda says "Naughty Cook".;)

[Jean in Newcastle]

#1 and #4. Can't you just get 4 aprons?!!!!

[Old Dominion Heather]

#1... It is the best by far.

[Tami]

I also like this one or the one Abby suggested. I'm just not a fan of pink fabric and bows. I'd leave the bow off this one. :001_smile:

#2

[Peek a Boo]

I'm more in favor of something like #2 --only i want a DENIM one w/ lotsa pockets, it needs to come UP further to cover MORE of my chest, lol, and I would really like for the shoulders to fan out a bit more and cover my shoulders a bit more. But I'm a MESSY person!!


For someone who doesn't cook much, I *want* an apron! but I will hafta find someone to sew a custom one i think. I have a $300 paperweight sitting around the house called a "sewing machine." I don't even know how to load the bobbin. I look and look at it and read and read the manual, but just don't "get" how it works. There's a WALL, lol.

anyway, happy shopping!

[Peek a Boo]

oh! how funny!

i went to check a few results I had saved when googling for aprons a couple years ago. Your #2 pic was the EXACT same one I had saved listed as "closest i like", lol.

i did find this that is pretty close to what i want:

i think mottled denim w/ a few yellow roses would be cool....

form fitting. lotsa darts and pleats ;)

I found one right up dh's alley....

Bwahh, why not be less subtle and get something from www.nakedaprons dot com. Very XXXX rated aprons. YIKES :lol::lol:

[pixelroper]

#2 is vonddurful

[Audrey]

#1 looks très Chanel.
#2 reminds me of saggy grannies.
#3 & #4 are both cute.

I'd go with #1. For. Sure.

[Audrey]

Ooo! I like Tami's choice, too. Chic!

[JennifersLost]

I added a couple more for laughs. I can't get that naked apron link to work, though.

[melissaL]

all the aprons look like they are from the same pattern. why don't you buy the patern and make some? it might work out cheeper.

I tried making an apron last year but it didn't work out too well. I'm not great at sewing.

Okay, there's time for a last few votes! I'm going to place my order tonight.


Apron Choices (http://jenniferseverywhere.blogspot.com/2008/03/decisions-decisions.html)

[Mary in NJ]

#2 the Red one. It seems that red stains are the ones that have ruined my pastel aprons. I vote for a red one!

that's because she didn't link the entire URL :-)

ya gotta type in the "dot com" part too ;)

[Jenny in Atl]

I like the Sassy... um pink goes with everything, don't you think so?

[Pencil Pusher]

Well, #3 is my favorite, but doncha think they're all going to look just *fine* if you wear them like they're modeled--a la carte? I'm just sayin'...

The only thing about aprons is you seem to have to have a waist. *sigh* Goes for dresses, too. (Hey--where'd the sad smiley go?) :( I guess that'll have to do.

Anyway, my mom was making me an apron when dh & I got married. She finally gave it to me last yr & said I had to finish it. IT LOOKED RIDICULOUS. There was a piece missing, I'm sure, because the straps pulled it up *really* high, to where it EMPHASIZED my, er, deflated womb. But not very deflated, mind you.

So I'm hesitant to fall in love w/ an apron. But...I do have some cute fabric...& a sewing machine...patterns are going on sale somewhere soon...& I bet Peek would come help me load the bobbin....;)

[JennifersLost]

I'm hoping I look good in an apron, too. I don't know if I will, but I thought the ones I chose looked flattering. I still haven't made up my mind. I'm all headachy and hormonal today and have mostly surfed around the web today, although I did do a bunch of editing, too.

Tomorrow! Tomorrow I shall purchase an apron.

Do, though. And I'll make one. It will take me forever, but we can post pics. But not naked.:eek:
