Isn't it just tooo retro?! And, yes, it is plastic! I was doin the 'Happy Dance' in the aisle.
Here are some close-ups of the detail...........
The pocket hangs from the waistband. I love the little white flowers and leaves
that are on the plastic material.
This is the red rose under the pocket and
this bouquet of mixed flowers is on the other side.
More of the little white flowers are on the waistband and apronstrings.
Pink plastic ruffles frame the apron at the hem which accentuates those little white flowers
that create a border along the hem too. Can you believe it was only $8! I really didn't look to close at the detail of the apron til I got home..hehe...I saw no stains, so home with me it came 8o)
Sorry this will not be available on any of my websites this one goes into my personal collection. I just couldn't not share the pics. Ya know this is also gettin me to thinkin. I said I'd find a plastic apron......well I've been sayin, Today I'm gonna win the Lottery...sigh....how come nobody up there listens when I say that!
Don't forget to visit..........................................

That is a great find! I always pick up children's aprons, but to find it in plastic is worth the happy dance!
That's a great find.
I bought The Apron Book some time back. I really want the green one she has in the book and on her blog.
Thank you for stopping by my blog!

Hi Melody!
Thanks for stopping by the blog the other day. Great find at the antique mall!
I saw a magazine at Joann's this morning called Apron-ology and thought of you. I did not get a chance to look at it, but the cover looked like it was probably pretty cool.
Check it out when you get a chance!

Ooo, love your darling retro plastic apron, Melody! That does bring back memories :) I sorta* collect aprons but don't have a single one that's vinyl? What a find~

Hi Melody, Thank you so much for visiting my blog today, and absolutely please do use the Ideals cottage. I just knew readers would enjoy it as much as I do. I love visiting your gingham cabin in the woods. It is particularly lovely this time of year! PS Your embroidery basket is right up my alley - wonderful fabric! Elizabeth

And its in such nice condition. Sometimes the plastic ones I find have yellowed a bit.

I love the Apron Book. It brings back so many memories of my mother, my aunt and my grandmother who always wore aprons. Beautiful post.
