Cleaning apron?

[SnoopsCaliforniaRoll]

Can anyone recommend somewhere to buy a good cleaning apron? I am sick of dressing in my scroungy, bleach-splattered cleaning outfit (it makes me feel like a slob!).

I just use a kitchen apron. I have one for baking and one for cleaning.

I don't think a tabard is long enough to avoid bleach stains on your legs.

@snoops ive got my eye on these not sure how practical it would be (and this exact one is a bit long for me) but i love the style!

I got a waterproof apron from a local store that sells variously things - like and old fashioned home bargains!

I've got an oilcloth one with puppies on the front for wet jobs and a navy chef's apron with handy pockets on the front for stashing cloths and dusters and random crap.

An old fashioned nylon overall a la Hilda Ogden might be good though

I would love an old fashioned nylon overall!! My granny had them and they were great

This is absolutely lovely! Thanks for the link

Yes, that's the problem with the tabard-style ones I had looked at - I had visions of my knees and legs getting wet or stained with particularly mucky jobs.

Thank you all, appreciate the suggestions

I Iove that but think I'd need pockets.

@allthatglitters it has pockets! Ive just gone and bought one 😁

I'm very confused, had an email to say Happycow had mentioned me in this thread but I can't see my name anywhere 😂

😂 not sure what that was about unless youve namechanged recently?

@Happycow pockets! Now then!
