These are absolutey AMAZING!! I have only been decorating cookies for a year and have been in business for only a year and still do not own one apron. I just had my 40th birthday and yesterday received an order for 1100 decorated cookies. Because of cookies I have met amazing people from customers to fellow cookie artists and I feel so incredibly blessed. I would be honored to wear one of these amazing aprons! Thanks for a great giveaway!!!

I would love to recieve one of your amazing aprons as the one I have is made of a stiff denim material. I would show the ladies in my guild the amazing gift I won and would be proud to wear it every time I made anything whether it be cakes/tarts or sugar flowers that I make. I have never seen anything so beautiful.

I'd love to win an apron as I always wear one when selling my cookies at bake sales, craft fairs, etc, and YOU HAVE MATCHING MOM/DAUGHTER aprons, and now my daughter's apron does not match mine, so a matching set would be WONDERFUL!!

I would love to win one of your creations because I always bake/cook in an apron, but they are all just functional. I would love to be able to wear an apron that is so "girly" and beautiful!

Your aprons are lovely. An apron is as much a part of a kitchen as a stove. My grand mother never stepped into the kitchen without one. They were always practical yet pretty. In remembering her and her aprons a whole host of fond memories are aroused. I would love to win one of your beautiful aprons and maybe start a new trend in Greece!

Wow - Beautiful! It would really be a shame for me to actually wear this while working in the kitchen, but I of all people really need one with a bib. Seems like whenever I work with chocolate or something greasy, it always ends up on my shirt. Actually... I need a long sleeve apron most of the time! Got one of those? :-)

What a lovely giveaway! I would definitely love to win an apron since I don't even own one myself! And these aprons are beautiful

I'm not an apron "girl" at least until now, but wouldn't mind to start using a so girly and pretty one. I think, an apron like that turns a person happy and therefore, it will reflects on cookies.

Cheers, Marta

I browsed the apron website and LOVED them all--the mommy and me sets would be so cool. (sigh) I don't have a daughter. I'm sure my 17 year old son wouldn't wear it, but I could always ask. (I can hear his attitude filled silence and feel his "my mother is insane" gaze on me now as I type this LOL)

HeatherWNibbler

I love aprons!! I wear one everyday, even when I'm done baking, I still have it on. I'll run to the store wearing it! Eek!! Yours are truly beautiful and unique! I'd love to have a special apron for my new non profit online business that helps other veterans in need, so that I'm instantly recognizable! What a dream! I'll keep my fingers and toes crossed! Good luck everyone!!

Thanks Tracie and Julia for coming up with such a great idea. I am starting my cake decorating journey next week and would love to enter the class with the most beautiful apron !
