I would like to find a cute, well made kitchen apron. Does anyone know of a great Etsy seller or a commercial brand? I'm thinking vintage style, but perhaps modern. I'm grateful for any suggestions!

I don't own any of their aprons, but I remember a magazine mentioning anthropologie for aprons. Some of them are really cute!

I got a cute one at Ikea, and saw some at World Market that were adorable!

Oh my gosh, those Anthopologie ones are TDF. They are $$, but now I think I *need* one, maybe two because it would be so difficult to choose. Perhaps I'll have to wait and ask for it as a Christmas gift! Thanks for all of the suggestions.

In case anyone's interested, I searched high and low for my ideal apron and finally found Callie Micks. I look silly in aprons that are flowery/ruffly, etc. so I had to find one that was a bit modern. I ordered the Lucy apron in Brown and the ties make a super cute red bow in front. It's adorable IRL and very well made. Make sure you look at the other aprons on the site if you don't like my color combo.

I also ordered the Stockholm Floral Apron in green from Anthropologie. I LOVE it too. I know, it's got a big flower on it, but it's modern enough that I don't look silly in it.

It may sound silly, but having a cute apron motivates me to do my housework. Whatever works, right?!

Another vote for Anthropologie here ;-) It wasn't cheap, but I love mine! I've also found several adorable yet functional aprons at antique stores. They're generally less expensive, though not all of them may hold up to long-term wash and wear. Also, Simplicity (the pattern company) just issued a bunch of pre-made aprons based on their own vintage patterns. I bought several at my local Hancock Fabrics store, but I'm pretty sure they've sold out. You might find some on ebay or something, though! They are very cute and very retro, but possibly more flowery than what you want.
