does anyone use an apron when cleaning and cooking

[Deleted User]

Yes I do and have done for years, normally when I'm baking as I'm a bit of a messy pup.I have three ,one of which I have had for almost thirty years .

I have a couple of plain cotton bib aprons hanging up in the kitchen. I tend to find that when I wear one of them for cooking etc it is perfectly clean when I come to take it off - so it seems a bit pointless wearing it. However, when I don't wear an apron, that is when I spill something or splatter my clothes. It seems as if wearing an apron makes me less careless!

Yes, I am like that. I have a pvc apron which I will put on to do some cooking or something, take off when I have finished only to find the apron is absolutely spotless however, when I don't wear one I can guarrantee I will splash my top with something that stains like tomato or something.
I have ruined too many tops so I tend to wear my pinny for most potentially messy jobs.

I have 2 cooking aprons. They come in handy if and when cake batter goes flying or greese decides to spit at me when I fry something. I don't use any for cleaning though. Just throw on some old clothes so even if I spill some cleaner on me..i won't mind.

I have a confession to make - I ordered two patterns online the other day for some really nice frilly aprons, and a 1940's style. One of the patterns arrived and I'm awaiting the 1940's one. I have loads of fabric to choose from and can't wait to get started. DH reakons I have an apron fetish now..lol

I follow a strict schedule of house chores on a daily basis. I live alone in a small flat so 20-30 minutes ad day does it I don't really create a lot of dirt etc. . For wet tasks such as washing, mopping etc, I wear a PVC apron, and latex gloves.

Found this site. Certainly a diverse range of aprons.

I have an apron I got from a garden centre - PVC on the back, cotton on the front - loads of pockets including a mobile phone one. I can wear it when gardening, cooking, everything - and I do -I just need to adjust the neckstrap a bit.

I'm forever going from one thing to another with my boys, so keeping my clothes clean is quite useful - but I have been known to go on the school run with it still on!!
