New Apron Swap – Garden Aprons

Hi Apronistas!!!

Lucy and Shawnee of the Sassy/Flirty Apron Swap are very proud to announce the start up of our newest apron “club” swap.
Busy Bees Apron Swap
With spring in full swing in most parts of the Northern hemisphere, we would like to do a Garden themed apron swap. This swap is meant to be a little “Green”. With a tight economy we are focusing our attention this round on how be a little more self sufficient. A garden is a great way to save a few bucks and help produce some lovely fresh food for your self and your family as well. We will be posting garden tutorials and links here from big gardens right down to things you can grow on your counter top. Everyone should be able to find something to grow. :o )

The aprons to go along with this theme are Gardening aprons. These can be multi pocketed bib or half style aprons for holding seed packets, gardening tools, gloves, and such. Or it can be the big gathering aprons for bringing in produce, collecting eggs, carrying weeds to the compost and more. We have also included a garden party apron category if you would rather swap that type. So when you sign up be sure to let us know what kind of apron you are interested in swapping.

As the Apron Turns…

I think I need to host a contest to name my weekly Aprons around the web post. Any suggestions?

Gorgeous ruffled Apron to benefit the Hope Clinic from Splendid Minta (pictured above).

I am a real lame – O. I completely missed telling you about Kim Hendricks’ giveaway at Olive Juice & Co. Her Aprons are beyond adorable, and if you wanna know a secret (shhh) – Kim was the person I was writing about when I thought up the name Apronista – Hey, maybe I should have a trivia contest too!!

EllynAnne has begun her book tour – check out the dates here - I know she would be SUPER thrilled if you stopped in to say hi to her while she is on the road – and if you wear your Apron, she would be over the moon. Tell her the Apronista sent you! If you go see her, take pictures and send them to me and I will post them here!

Another great Carolyn’s Kitchen Giveaway at Frugal and Fabulous.

I am totally bummed she only makes Little Girls Aprons – Mad Bird makes adorable wallets and business card pouches too!

Over at Domestic Chicky – I am giving away a shmancy Kodak Printer – I can’t wait to use it for Appliques!

Have a great week Apronistas!!
