    how about a little lace?? Even though we sometimes have to wear an apron, we still want to look "soft"......

    I did shirt aprons for the gds for Xmas 2012, and they LOVED them. So I have to do them again this year; last year's were in their favorite colors. This year I think I will find some far out psychedelic (SP?) LOL shirts and make em. They liked them cuz they fit their trim figures and were just there like some of the aprons are so they told me !LOL

    Thanks for the idea of the something around the collar.. I left mine last year the color with nothing else on them.

    Aren't you a cleaver one! I really like "thinking outside the box" when repurposing things. I agree the white apron needs a little more . . . please post the updated look

    I'm with the bow tie! You can use the left over cuffs and collars for it.
