Party starts at Fri night and ends Sunday 11pm, so you have all weekend to join.
I LOVE to highlight inspiring posts during the event on the sidebar, so make sure you check in several times over the weekend. You may be next. :)
Flirty, I should say!
The center is scooped at the bottom so that the apron does not shift while you work, sit, or climb. The waistband is adjustable and snaps together for better stability. The waistband is slightly scooped at the top so that it fits a woman's hips better.
Ohhhh I like this! Love the colours.
Ain`t she a beauty! The first thing that caught me off guard was the weight and quality of the fabrics. This is not a tea towel, folks! Polly`s asked for a photo of me wearing this. Well, I never feel I look good enough to do the apron proud, so I`m hoping this craziness you`re about to witness will compensate for that.
Here`s my reaction on the day I received it.
BIG disclaimer. I look awful in this video, but how was I to know? :) So in the name of art and doing this in fun for a friend... here we go! (wince!)
Dear Vimeo, you are TOTALLY fired from ever taking a still shot of me again! Quick, play the thing!
Told ya. :)
Now that you're totally feeling the apron love, how about a little giveaway event?
Look and see what Polly made especially for THIS EVENT.
This Weekend's Feature
Miss Polly is back! And isn't she cute? She makes my blog look so... cute!
And she's outa apron control. She`s flipping out new creations for her Etsy shop quicker than I can shake a rusty upside down sewing machine (that would be mine) at! Here is just some of her current line.
The button apron is a new addition to the Make Mine Beautiful line. This darling little muslin apron is adorned with bright orange checks and a graceful, flirty ruffle. A fun selection of orange and blue buttons are an added bonus. Great apron for the general crafter or for use at the flea market.
Doesn't the button detail seal the deal on this sweetie?!?
This darling little muslin apron is adorned with fresh grass green checks and a graceful, flirty ruffle. The unexpected treat of a little birdie with a rhinestone eye is an added bonus.
This is the perfect work apron/tool belt for the DIY gal. These are sturdy work aprons, designed to last.
Ohhhh I like this! Love the colours.
This apron has two large pockets for toting your necessities, a zippered pocket for storing your valuables, and a business card pocket. Made of home dec weight fabrics for stability. This apron is flattering to any shape. Apron may come with pleats or a ruffle at the bottom, depending on the weight of the fabric in the combination you select.
I adore this style! I can see how it would flatter any shape.
These full body aprons give your clothes the protection you need when working in your craft room and provide you the right amount of pockets to tote all of your things. Fully lined, adjustable neck line, and personalized name badge. Name will be stamped with a coordinating paint color.
I`ve always loved this classic style. The mix of fabrics in this one is so cool!
Goodness... how is one to choose as they`re all great!
And here is mine...

Now that you're totally feeling the apron love, how about a little giveaway event?
Look and see what Polly made especially for THIS EVENT.
Isn't this the sweetest ever?!? This is another variation of the Farmer's Market Apron and this one's up for grabs!
BUT! If you don't win, I have some other great news. This little number is going to be on sale for an entire week at only $35!
And in other news, Polly's putting the rest of her line on a special pricing just for this event as well. You can find them in her ETSY store. Happy shopping to you!
