J bought me some really lovely aprons for Christmas last year that I love! But they are always stashed in a drawer and I never remember to use them! I had pinned a few “dream kitchens” wherein the aprons were hung in some fashion. So they not only were handy when you needed them, but they added character to the kitchen décor too! So I … Continue reading Hanging Apron {or coat} Hanger
