Very cool Carrie!! Love the apron, but I have NEVER cooked in on. Not sure why...I don't wear one when I design floral arrangement either. Most florists do...guess I gotta buck the system.

Cannot wait to see what else you have COOKED up!!! lol
OK...got you posted & linked on my blog!! Let's get this party started!!!

ReplyDeleteA cool giveaway does it include cookies?? ha ha! I am a follower:)
ReplyDeleteI own one apron, a vintage gingham checked half skirt.
So cute. I already follow you, and I posted about your contest at my blog,
ReplyDeletewww.thisthat-n-tother.blogspot.com
As far as aprons go, I have owned many and used many, but somehow, recently I haven't been using them much. With an apron as cute as this, though, I'm sure I would start using them again.
I think that my favorite apron is the white Christmas apron that a friend and I made out of a bed sheet (trimmed in lace) when I was a young girl in Ukraine. It is white, lacy, and has green and red ribbon through the bodice. The best part of it is all the happy memories it brings when I wear it.
OMG! I LOVE THAT!! So adorable and retro! I can just see myself whipping up something good in that!! Ooooh, I want...I want...I want...lol...
ReplyDeleteHa, you know I'm following you already!
That is super freaking cute! I have never used an apron, but know just the person I could give this to. Count me in!
ReplyDeleteThis is so pretty
ReplyDeleteThat apron is adorable. I have been married for a year and a half and have been having to change my clothes when I am done cooking because I do not own a apron. I would love to own this cute one. I just started following you blog also.
ReplyDeleteI posted about this contest on my blog with a link to your blog.

I LOVE aprons. My obsession started a few years ago when my mom gave me some of my grandmother's old aprons. I like vintage and contemporary ones. I try to cook in them as much as possible but some are so cute that I don't want to ruin them. I have seen Carolyn's aprons and absolutely adore the.
ReplyDeleteI love cooking, and while this valentines day is going to be hard (as i'm going through a divorce that I don't want) i'm hoping to keep cooking and stay cute in the kitch! I also LOVE vintage/pin up itmes, it's right up my ally! adorable!
ReplyDeleteI love that apron!! I always cook with aprons on because I hate getting anything on my clothes and I seem to make a big mess. So, pick me pick me!!
ReplyDeleteOkay, an apron... that's orange??? and hearts??? This would work for two holidays for me:

I am a follower and love these cute aprons. I'd be cooking up a storm in this little cutie especially for the hubby. :)
ReplyDeleteThat is just too cute! I love aprons, being the natural (a-hem) house diva that I am. They are just too cute! Now if only I cant make them into a fashion statement and wear them everywhere.....
ReplyDeleteThese are absolutely adorable! My daughters and I love cooking in aprons. It's a cute scene, I'll have to have the hubby catch us all in the kitchen with our aprons.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the lovey dovey contest!
I am a secret apron lover. Why secret? I do not want my husband to know I can cook....(jk) I have a few of my moms and some of my great grandmas and I cherish them. If I could sew (on a to do list) I would make apron after apron.
ReplyDeleteI think wearing an apron makes the food taste better!
:D
I am a follower! Yippy!!!!
ReplyDeleteAnd, I posted your contest...linking back to you, :D

I love aprons, especially vintage aprons. I cannot imagine not cooking in an apron. I have been wanting one from Carolyn's Kitchen for a long time.

Hi! I found you on SITS and I am now a follower! This is such a cute apron. I am embarrassed to say but, I don't have any aprons so I'm not sure if I would cook in it or not!!! As cute as it is, I would probably just wear it around the house!!!! Thanks for entering me into the contest, I am off now to read up on some more of your blog!
ReplyDeleteI'm following in Google reader. Love your site! I just found you via CopyCat.
ReplyDeleteAprons...I like them for cooking, but this one seems almost too nice for that! Kinda frisky!
I'm having a giveaway for a book about blessing your husband. Seems to go well with you lovey dovey theme! http://missmouthy.com/the-husband-project-giveaway-giveaway/
*I hope this isn't spammy...I'm new to the blogging world!*
I blogged about the contest on my "giveaway post". You can see it here.
ReplyDeleteI love aprons. I actually use them. I like the full ones as I get more splash and dust on top than the bottom. I usually just wipe my hands on the bottom. I never use pockets
ReplyDeleteI'm now a follower :)
ReplyDeleteADORABLE aprons!! I LOVE wearing aprons and anything girly!! Thanks for the chance to win!
Posted a link on my blog back to your contest.

ReplyDeleteHi there! I'm following you now! I love those aprons. Sooo cute! I only have one apron that I only wear occasionally but for some reason I'd like to wear them more. Is that Donna Reed of me?
ReplyDeleteI'd love to be entered in the giveaway. I am following. :o)
ReplyDeleteI love aprons, but mine certainly aren't as cute as that! I need a cute one! All of mine are very plain, and well, boxy looking. I wear mine more often than I don't, so pick me so I can look cute at least, lol.
ReplyDeleteWow, what a great time to find your blog and not only do I love aprons, but living here in 1955 I need them, believe me. And, I am just now learning to starch the little devils as well. Even if I don't win I am glad I found your blog.

I'm a romant-iac too! I'd follow you just for that. And the vintage goods too. I heart for real vintage and faux vint too. I'm built like an old school pin up (with a bit more fluff than I'd like) so I'm always looking for a good buy.
ReplyDeleteI have one of her aprons already. I cook like crazy and simply love to sport it when company comes. I think there is a little kitchen vamp in us all! IF I were lucky enough to win one.. wowza! I'd save it for.. um.. private time with the hubby..he he he
Hey if you dig a give away stop by and see me. It's sort of become a new pass time for me. I still blog but I try to tie in a give away with a theme. It's a hootananny. Thanks for the op!
I love Orange...my fave color. I'm a follower and I'd love to be able to wear this when I cook dinner or bake things.

GOSH these aprons are cute! I love the trim. I use aprons like crazy when cooking so I think a girl can never have too many cute aprons.
ReplyDeleteLove the aprons! I have seen them before and would love to wear one when I cook. I usually wear one when I am into big time cooking or baking.
ReplyDeleteI am following you.
I commented on your Valentines Day ideas
ReplyDeleteI commented on your vegetable sprinkle/dip
ReplyDeleteI just followed your blog! Hope you'll also do the same!
ReplyDeleteTo be honest, I never cook. But I really want to try cooking because it seems fun. If I can win the apron, I will start to learn cooking immediately!

The aprons are wonderful. I would love to win one. My mom made me a cupcake one that is really cute as well. I just came upon your blog through bakerella. I really like your site. Count me in as a new follower!
ReplyDeleteI'm a baker, and this apron just fits the bill to complete my wardrobe for my Valentine's Day bake-fest in bed for my hubby! I'm now a follower and will do my best to lead others to your site by posting your first-ever give-a-way on my blog!
ReplyDeleteGood Luck to each of you ladies. I am so excited I can hardly wait until Sunday to do the drawing.
ReplyDeleteCheck back then to see if you won.
I will also be posting the first Cookie Club Cookie Recipe!
Yummmy!

What a cute apron! I'm not much of a cook, but I love to bake. With the flour and chocolate flying around I like using my apron I sew myself in junior high I think it was, lol. I'm not that old of a lady, but I think it might be time to upgrade and I just fell inlove with this one. Mine is a lepard print and the ribbons are bigger lepard prints. Quite cute, but I'm ready for something new.
ReplyDeleteI'm a follower. Thanks for the chance. Your blog is very retro, I like it a lot.
