So I’ve posted about my Mom’s handmade pottery aprons before…
but then I must admit that I got distracted, overwhelmed & slid right into holiday frenzy mode! I know some people expressed interest in them then… so I’m posting them again! This time I am not so busy… I promise to follow through this time!!!
It was a bit reassuring to see that there weren’t really any good pottery aprons at the NCECA Expo. Not that we’ve “invented’ the apron or anything… but I do think we’ve designed a pretty sweet apron. It “works” in all the right places! Many of the potters at Lillstreet are already rockin’ a durable “Mom original” apron.
Here are some quick details about the aprons…
*Â durable & washable heavy broadcloth fabric
*Â lower section splits into two panels to cover each leg as you sit at the wheel.
*Â patch pockets on the back of each hip.
*Â straps actually go over the shoulders to avoid neck strain & fatigue.
*Â three buttoned height adjustments.
*Â three buttoned width adjustments.
*Â “one size fits all”… for the most part.
Here is my friend & potter Greg Schultz throwing a large pot on the wheel…
and keeping his clothing clean all at the same time!
The following shows the current apron inventory. I have them for sale in my studio at Lillstreet. If you are interested in purchasing an apron – please send me a quick e-mail to “secure” your choice.
