Default Apron Made from Tux Shirt
While I was browsing through GW looking for a shirt to make an apron for my DGD I saw several tux shirts. Hmmm, I thought, that would make a cute apron for when you have a dinner party. So, one followed me home and this was the result. The picture isn't the greatest but you get the idea.

​Looking classy! I used a men's black shirt last year to do an apron also, works great and guys don't mind wearing them.

I picked up a black one too. It has a white collar and cuffs. I'm thinking of making it for my DGS-in-law. He and my GD both love to cook and entertain.
