Aprons

Filed under: Crafty — Joy @ 8:39 pm

I have finally recovered enough from Christmas (I always try to make to much) that I thought that I would post two of my favorite projects that I made for our niece and nephew. I knew that I wanted to make an apron for our niece and decided on the same for our nephew. I know that it is not so much a “guy thing” but I decided that he too could help mom in the kitchen and he could use it while painting etc. I just bought a craft apron from our craft store and used it as a pattern. The kids craft apron was pretty small so I ended up adding a few inches to all the sides. It also turns out that the adult apron is pretty small and it worked great as a pattern for our 8 year old nephew. Just a little FYI there for you! I ended up backing the aprons so that they would have a more finished look especially after I monogrammed them. Ciara’s apron was definitely a little bit more fun to make since you could add the ribbon and tassels just to make it that much more girly. For Austin’s I just stuck with the fabric since it was guyish! Enjoy the pics!
