What would we do without the hostesses in our lives? They manage to have flowers on the table, candles lit, amazing food in the oven and, most importantly, a sixth sense for when your wine glass is down to the last sip. My life would be a blur of Top Ramon and microwavable mac ‘n cheese if it weren’t for two of my favorite hostesses – my mom and my good friend Heather.
A great way to thank those dinner party divas is with an adorable apron, like the pretty hand-sewn creations in the photos above by Lori of Domestic Dream. If you live in town, you’re in luck! Her aprons will be on sale for $35 this Sunday, Dec. 13, at 1076 Normandy Hill Lane in Encinitas. If you’re interested in a custom order and/or you can’t make it to the sale, contact Lori at lori.domesticdream@gmail.com, and keep a lookout for her upcoming Etsy shop!
