Retro Revival Giveaway-Choose Your Favorite!

What a week Apron Goddesses.... In brief, I am packing for vacation and will be on the road and in Idaho and Montana for the next week. But before I depart I can offer up this lovely giveaway sponsored by Retro Revival!

Owner Cindy has told me that you can pick your favorite from her store and win it. I love her wide variety of fabric patterns and styles to choose from. My favorite is this vegetable themed apron pictured to the right. As a botanist I am a sucker for the greenery.... This veggie pattern accented with the green and white polka dots is adorable to my plant loving eyes.

Other aprons that caught my attention were the cherry patterned varieties like this one. Our cherry trees are not yet blooming here, but will probably start breaking bud in about three weeks. I don't have a cherry patterned apron yet so I'm thinking I need a new addition to my apron assortment.

And this cutie-pie cherry apron caught my eye too. It reminds me of an Apron Goddess take on the standard tennis outfit except with lots of great cherries on it!

At Retro Revival, you can find vintage-inspired aprons that will provide a colorful barrier between your frock and your soufflés. The apron styles are all handcrafted from original patterns, designed to evoke a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era! You may find kitchen towels, full and half aprons, tote bags, and shower caps.

I happen to have two of the wonderful totes and LOVE them! Click HERE to see my Retro Revival TOTES. They are amazing.

So, onto the giveaway instructions...

To enter the giveaway for the apron of your choice from Retro Revival, visit the web store and browse the selection. Come back here to TAG and make a comment about your favorite. That will give you one entry into the giveaway.

For five extra entries into the drawing create a blog post about this giveaway, leaving your permalink in your comment. Be sure to mention this in your entry.

And for 10 extra, bonus chances at winning send in a picture of you or a family member wearing an apron. Leave a comment that you are sending in a photograph too! (Contact is above) No headless apron wearers please!! We will write up your "apron-ography" in the weeks to come.

Giveaway Closes 3/25/2010.

There are so many wonderful ones to choose from. I really liked the Strawberry Field Authentic 1950s Vintage Fabric Apron! I'm sending you an email of my favorite nephew in an apron at Christmas. Does this count?! He's just so cute, I couldn't resist. For Christmas when we (my siblings and I--all grown adults) exchange names we usually do a "theme" for the gift exchange. One year it was gifts from "As Seen on TV". My favorite, however, was the one where your gift had to be homemade. The picture I'm emailing is of my nephew wearing the apron one of my sisters made for my brother (who likes to bake, believe it or not!).
