A Manly Apron For My Dad

This was a project I made for my dad for Father's Day but it's a great and easy apron to make for any time. Especially summer time barbecues.
And its not fussy or corny.

My dad loves to grill.

I love my dad!
He and his wife Rita, my stepmom, are so much fun.

Busy pretending to read Rachel Ray....

It was a great Father's Day!

Would you like to make someone in your life a Manly Apron? 

This apron was super simple to make. I used a free printable you can find here on Lovely Indeed, and then opened it up with my Silhouette cutter software and fed some freezer paper through the cutter, using a number one size blade because the freezer paper is very thin.

I bought a basic apron sent from Fashion Art Projects so I didn't have to do any sewing which was great! Because I started the apron on Father's day morning and needed it by the afternoon.

I ironed on the freezer paper to the apron and used black paint to paint the stencil.

My dad loves his apron!
