Vintage Thingies Thursday
I found this apron at a thrift store. I’m not sure how vintage this is. The tag said it was old and collectible, and it only cost $3, so I figured why not? I thought at first it was homemade on a sewing machine, but taking a closer look I think it was factory made. I thought one of you might have an idea of how old it really is. Anybody have an idea?

What a fun and colorful apron. I would say late 1960’s-1970’s. also!
Great find!
Oh, you know I’m loving this apron! Love the colors!
I remember seeing this one in the late 60s and 70s. A lot of the aprons then had the “3″ food group patterns and colors in them. My grandmom wore a yellow (pinK) one like this.
My I-talian MIL wore these kinds of aprons. She passed away 4 years ago, wish I had gotten my hands on them. My guess would be it is from the 60’s

I’m not sure but I LOVE it! Thats a great find at $3 too!
I am no expert mind you, but that just screams 70’s to me. Lovely in color and pattern in the fabric. I think you got a great deal for only $3.00. This was really cute.
My mom had aprons kinda like that. But she kept things forever, so it could have been from anytime.

I like it. These days I love to wear an apron with pockets so I can keep my bloggin camera close by :0)
I can’t tell you how old it is but I absolutely love it!
Thanks for sharing!
I don’t have any clues about your apron, but it’s pretty! I love vintage stuff, so I wanna play too. Gonna check out Apron Queen and get in on the fun.
Hmm, from the colors I think maybe late 60s or early 70s? I’m not sure.
Cute!
