The Hostess with the Mostess

If your family is like ours, everyone seems to gather in the kitchen to help get the holiday meal on the table. If you are the hostess, it is a good idea to have several aprons on hand to loan out for meal prep. SpiceRak Designs has several that we think are especially darling. These make great hostess gifts, too!

A Project to Beat the Winter Blues...

We can take no credit for this post whatsoever. Consider us to be the ones merely pointing you in the right direction! Abby Welker, from the blog A Feathered Nest, has posted this beautiful tutorial on how to make the simplest, chicest aprons. We would be remiss to let it slide by and not pass it on as it's a very cheery way to beat the January blues! Thank you, Abby!
(Pssst! Wouldn't these be great hostess gifts? Whip up a whole bunch in an afternoon and then store them away...you'll have a chic, homemade hostess gift to bring with you the next time you're on somebody's guest list!)
