    I am in love with these from of all places, Paper Source!  And wanting to give them and/or a matching tote bag with notecards in it.

    Likey or no likey?  My friends mostly like to cook and I know I'd love this if somebody gave it to me.  One of my bm's would probably only want the tote and notecards, as she's not a cooking fan. However, my sis will go over the moon for the apron.  I'll only have four bm's btw.  I'll gift them some coin pearl jewelry for the big day but that will be later!  Likey or no likey?

    Love the tote. SO cute! Not so sure about the apron, but that could easily be because I'm not so sure about cooking either!

    I love the pattern!

    I voted "likey" with reservations: I *love* that the apron is a V-neck, as the ones with the straight-across neckline always seem silly to me. Or maybe I'm just overly enthusiastic with the flour. But I want some clothing protection up near my neck! I also really love the colors and brightness. However, I'm not thrilled with the pattern change - I prefer the upper half and am less fond of the bottom portion.

    They have a few other aprons too there.  I have three bm's who love to cook and adores dressy aprons.  My other bff is not into cooking, thus I'm not going to get her one.

    I just know Redherring, it doesn't matter WHAT apron I'm wearing when the flour comes out..b/c it's always goin' in my hair.  Somehow it gets always in my face and hair!  lol!

    I initially liked the first apron in the previous post b/c it matches the tote and stationery.  But all these 3 are cute!

    My thing is, the other apron is matching the tote, has a few of my colors for the wedding in it, and also matches the stationery.  In real life (I've seen it) it's really cute!

    But the Minerva halter apron (the one in second picture) kinda matches this PS letterpress stationery too:

    see it with apron here!

     I may end up going with this combo!  But finding a tote might take some work.

    OMG! Can I be one of your bridesmaids? Those are adorable! Love the stationary/ apron combo. I saw these at PS when I was home and seriously considered buying one, but Mr, KM was anxious to leave.

    Wow I can't believe 12 said no likey.

    I am about 100 percent on going with the Minerva halter apron and the lettterpressed stationery for gifts! 

    I'll send them out in a hat box in hopefully an expresso color and have some chartreuse and pink matching tissue paper inside to wrap the gifts in.

    I have their cards too that I've created which will be cute.  And they're pink.

    PS has cute aprons.  They really do.

    And my sis wears dressy ones when she's entertaining over her outfits.  So I know she's gonna just be over the moon over the Minerva!

    I'm not big on the first apron, but I love the last two! The middle one looks like a dress!!! Crazy! But I'm really loving that one with the ruffles...If I had to pick one for myself, I'd def. go with the ruffles!

    so, I know it is cute for gifting that it matches the tote, but it's not like they'll be wearing them at the same time, so maybe do different aprons for each BM

    there are also some gorgous ones on etsy, and they might be willing to make other things into a set!

    for all my damask girls!

    SOOOO cute!!!! I love them all. If your not sure which to get based on tote design, why not search for totes elsewhere that will match a color in one of the apron designs (or if your crafty, find a fabric and sew a basic one) and add a cute ribbon or fabric flower to it. Plus, you could always give these as gifts to those that enjoy cooking and get a diff. more personalized gift for the ones who don't. Super cute idea though. Sounds like a for-sure idea for your sister.

    @jacqi- I love the anthropolgie aprons! They are my favorite.

    @belle- This may be a little late in the input-game, but I like the second 2 aprons you posted better. The first one's pattern makes me nervous. :p

    I've actually been on the lookout for a cute apron, so thanks for all the links!  I'm trying to find one that is black/white/red and I think this might be a winner from Flity Aprons! Thanks for posting the link traichuoi!

    I am seriously thinking of gifting these to my bm's! :  wedding W SB Front

     

    P.S. My sewing box matches the floral print exactly, so it just might be a sign! :)

    My BMs would not like aprons (okay, one may) but if you know yours like fun aprons, you picked some cute ones. Personally, I like the one with ruffles best!

    i think they're adorable, but you know your girls best. my only problem with pretty aprons is that i tend to not want to wear them to mess them up. my cousin sent me one as an engagement gift and i have yet to wear it. that doesn't mean i don't wish to own it though.
