I have been searching the internet to look for some "special" ideas and things that my daughter and granddaughter would like for birthdays that are coming up in July and September.  I look forward to Tipnut.com's daily e-mail especially when it offers some crafty ideas!!!  Today's was about aprons that looked  just like my grandmother Naya used to wear.  If she was home, she was wearing an apron.  

For Valentine's Day my mom gave me a beautiful crochet apron that she made before I was even born!!!  It is still beautiful and in perfect condition.  

Anyway, back to the subject, I went to look at the aprong directions and found another fab site that has some great "give-a-ways" and tutorials.  http://grosgrainfabulous.blogspot.com/2009/03/cottage-chic-apron-tutorial.html

I added some other links earlier for some give-a-ways that look perfect for my free-spririt daughter & granddaughter.
