Default Garage Sale Aprons

We are having our first ever family garage sale in a week and I thought it would be nice if we all had our own aprons to identify us as family members available for questions, sales, negotiations, etc. I had bought an apron at a church sale that was completely serged so I used it as a pattern to make these. One of the easiest projects I've ever done and I did 4 of them in just 1 day (including the embroidery)!

Did you put velcro on any of your pockets for your big money?

I go to a lot of garage/estate sales and anymore the hosts/hostesses of the sales wear aprons of some sort. They never have a cash box. This is a great idea and uniform. When I go I try to have only small (ones and fives) bills and never take more than fifty $ with me. This is just a great apron period. Great to wear at a retreat.

That is a great idea and the pockets will be so handy to use for everything from money to tags and paper and pencils.
