I am Starting to give away Aprons!
I am so EXCITED to announce that I am starting to give away one of my favorite aprons each month! I have collected aprons for years and now I have the challenge of choosing what aprons to make for myself.
When I started this business my husband jokingly told me I was only allowed 12 aprons a year. He said a year! I took that as 12 new aprons every year. I'm not sure if that was exactly what he was meaning but he did put up more hooks to hang my aprons.
In honor of him making me have to choose carefully I am sharing my top 12 picks. The even better part is I am going to be giving away one of those each month.

Go comment on the most recent post and I will randomly choose one person to receive each month's featured apron.
