However when I am at home wearing a pvc apron I too get hot and sweaty but I prefer that to getting my clothes ruined.

I'll bet you do!

OMFG this thread is a mix of peeps who wear aprons to protect their clothing and peeps who get their kicks out of wearing aprons. Some of the posts here have made me :rotfl: Keep it coming it relieves the boredom. :cool:

Someone mentioned Cath Kidston earlier. Am I the only person in the world who is sick to death of CK stuff? No offence to the person who mentioned it but I am bored stiff of seeing turquoise backgrounds, big red cabbagey flowers etc on anything for the house. Flipping peg bags, coasters, tea towels, aprons, garden tools and so on :eek: I know there are other patterns/colourways but I don't find any of them very inspriring to be honest.

Still she's making plenty of money from them!;)

I know what you're saying and I have to agree with you - I think it's been done to death now. Having said that, I do have 8 CK mugs hanging under one of my shelves in the kitchen , but that's it, I promise!

So, why do you wear one?

Just got back from a short break up in Northumberland, bought 2 new aprons while we were away to add to my collection. The first one is a RNLI apron with a picture of a lifeboat on it the second has a picture of Alnick castle on it. Both are PVC coated aprons and both seem to be of a nice quality. I have just counted the aprons I have in my spare wardrobe and there is 86 now including the 2 new ones I have just bought but not including the aprons my husband and I use day to day. I might stop collecting when I get to 100

Do I "use" an apron? Like a cotton one for drying the dishes?

I wear one. I have several, all PVC.

I guess that makes 88 in total, quite a collection, me and my wife just have 2 each. One each for cooking and one each for cleaning.

So, do you carefully consider which one you're going to wear each day?

The aprons in the wardrobe never get worn, we have a few aprons hung up in the kitchen which me and my husband use day to day. We have an apron each which we use for cooking and there are 3 or 4 older aprons that get used for cleaning.
