Vamp it Up! Apron


For Christmas, I was given the most beautiful Cath Kidston rose patterned tea towel. It was just too nice to use. A week in my kitchen and it would be stained with tea and chicken jalfrezi. The one thing I did need was a cute apron. The only apron I had was a washed out (too much cake decorating) Woolworths Christmas special with dancing reindeer. Not exactly sexy for a dinner party. So I decided to turn the tea towel into an apron.

Materials
Tea Towel
Crystal beads
Ribbon
Elastic
Feather fluff on a string

Instructions

1. To make the shape of an apron, turn down both top corners of the tea towel and stitch into place.

2. Measure a loop of ribbon around your neck. Sew into place.

3. Measure elastic so it is roughly half the width of the tea towel. Sew at waist level.

4. Measure two pieces of ribbon around waist so they may be tied. Sew into place at waist level.

5. To make apron really special, adorn motifs with crystals.
