Thanksgiving aprons...can't wait to cook!

Our girls like any excuse to get together so each holiday we pick a craft or two and get together for a girls night!  With Thanksgiving around the corner we decided to take simple orange aprons from Amazon and make them our own!  

Each girl brought fabric, ribbon, decals and anything else to make them pop! We sit around, eat yummy food, drink wine and get ideas from each other! This time there was even some bartering going on:)

I chose to cut my square apron to round out the bottom and the scoop the top.  Then I took basic off white silk ribbon and bunched and glued it around the bottom and a skinnier version around the top.  This gave texture and cleaned up the ends.  

Then I hand sewed a pocket in the middle using a corduroy zig zag.  Also used that fabric to cover the ties in the back.  Lastly I added a flower to finish it off.

All of the girl'saprons looked great and our photo shoot on Jen's really awesome pallet coat rack was perfect!

Such a fun night with fun and wonderful friends!  Next time, Christmas craft night!
