Vintage Aprons

I am totally in love with everything that is 50’s housewife related this definitely doesn’t exclude aprons. In fact, I absolutely adore aprons of all styles, shapes, and colors. I wear them all day long. Aprons make me feel more like a housewife than any other article of clothing that I wear. Being pregnant the aprons help protect my clothing from the horrible stains accidents that happen when I’m not wearing my protective clothing. Aprons motivate me to stay busy. It is like an absolute transformation whenever I put my apron on. I go from lazy, don’t want to do anything to ready to clean the mansion with one tie of a bow. Whether I’m in the kitchen, folding clothes, playing with p-nut, or getting ready for baby the simple tie of an apron around my waist makes me feel like “Supermom”!

You can imagine my excitement when my mother brought over these vintage aprons…


The aprons above were hand sewn by my Great-grandmother. Although some are tattered, torn, or falling apart they are such a great item to have. I never knew my great-grandmother but can see how much she loved cooking in the stitching of these aprons. My mother found them when she was cleaning out my grandmother’s house and thought that I might want to have them. They are so great! They have to be almost 100 years old.

    Oh, now I am so jelaous of YOU :) I want to be a 50’s housewife so bad it hurts. I love stuff like this. To have something made by your family makes it even better!

    I love your site! As for reviews, I am still waiting for the magical Roomba company to contact me ;) That would be the best! The electronics are great, but seem to be more for my hubby than me ;) Ha! Hang in there, the big ones will come. I have been doing this for almost three years now and I am just starting to really get some of these.

    Have a fabulous day!
