Maybe it is the hope that when I put these on, I too will become a "Susie Homemaker" or "Martha Stewart".
I won these darling aprons on eBay and they just came in the mail today so I thought I would share them with you. I have a lot more but they are in storage right now. Maybe someday I'll get them out and show you.
Isn't this a darling one! I love to wear the full big aprons the most as I'm a pretty messy cook!
This pretty purple rose one would put a smile on any girls face as she put it on.
This one and the one below are vintage Victorian/Edwardian aprons that are handmade.
Now if that doesn't conjure up great stories I don't know what would.
This one has beautiful fine lace sewn into it.
This one is so cheerful and bright. I love it.
This one that reminds me one that would be an everyday type apron the ladies would wear in the '50's.
I think this one was a souvenir one. It has ladies all dressed up in there native style dresses.
This one is also home made and has a sweet little tea pot embroidered on it. There are not ties to the neck area though. The seller thought the women would just pin it on to their clothes. I think some ties need to be put on it.
Now, I have a question for you. Some vintage linens have spots or stains on them. I know several of you have ways to get these out. So, would you share your tips and ideas. What kind of soap do you use? Do you starch your linens? Do you let them sit out in the sun to bleach out whites?
There are all kinds of hints and tips for linens and I would love if we could share the ones you have tried and that worked here.
Hugs,
Joanne
