I found another use for our aprons. My Mom has to use a
wheel chair and I have to load that heavy bugger into my
car. Well I was getting a dirty shirt leaning that thing
on me to try and push it into the car, so I figured I might
as well carry my apron with me and everytime I have to take
the wheel chair in and out my shirt won't get dirty. Toni |

What great uses, I use my apron as an egg holder when gather eggs, a sweat rag when cooking(if needed) sometimes a hot pad holder. So many uses what do people do with out them? Blessings,Karen

Heather: what would we do without pockets in EVERYTHING! Love that toddler and give her a hug for me. Kids grow up to fast!

I love an apron with big pockets because my toddler is constantly picking up gross little bits from who knows where and either she's handing them to me and I have to grab and put them somewhere or fish them out of her mouth all while holding my infant. I love, love, LOVE those big ol' pockets!

I have aprons for everything. I use one that is plastic when I am painting on paper or fabric. I have another I use for making lefse (a thin Norwegian potato taco-like flat bread) one for sewing (a half apron with lots of pockets) one for gardening, etc. I can't eat without a bib because I seem to "drop" things lol. They are great.

Antoinette, that is great. Jessie, I don't think it's a shame at all, aprons were worn outside the house at one point--my mama said she would do gardening and even scrubbed the floors in it, to make sure the clothes under her apron weren't splashed by dirty water!

Great idea! Mine is usually used for a toddler tissue, much to my shame, but at least it keeps me clean and toddler tissue-eque free! :) lol
