How do you ladies store your aprons? I have mine all rolled up inside a kitchen drawer. I decided to iron them this morning (boy, do they look better!) but now I want a better way to store them so they don't get wrinkled again. I just had a baby and none of my clothes fit me- I just want something to look neat, even if it's only an apron! Someday when I'm skinny again, I dream of having an apron for every outfit. Then I'll probably just hang them in my closet next to my clothes. Right now I only have a few aprons and most of them were made for someone taller so they hang funny on me. I wish one of you amazing seamstresses could come to my house and teach me to sew for my body size!

Whew! All that complaining to ask one little question!

I hang mine on large cup hooks in my pantry.

What about having them on hangers in a coat closet?

I found one of those clippy things that the stores hang small bags of chips from. It hangs from a hook by the fridge and each apron has its own clip. Since it hangs vertically, it doesn't take up a lot of room.

I have a few aprons and I hang them on the knob of every other lower cabinet in my kitchen.

i have aprons hanging in several places .. behind the pantry room door .. over a cupboard door .. in the laundry room (hanging) .. and i always put a bunch on the 'clothesline' when company comes! if they are 'shut away' .. they are less likely to be worn i find. aprons also look very cute as kitchen curtains .. and i saw kitchen CHAIRS dressed in the bib ones .. and it was ADORABLE!!

I hang one up in the kitchen on the side of my baker's rack. That is the one I put on and use until it becomes soiled.

I hang the rest (the clean ones!) in the coat closet that is a few steps away from the kitchen.
