Etsy Custom Order - Personalized Age Doesn't Matter Unless You're Wine Apron

Earlier this week we had our first custom order on Etsy!  A customer requested that we personalize the Age Doesn't Matter Unless You're Wine apron.  It was a bit of a challenge to figure out how where to place the name.  Since it was short, we placed it above the wine glasses.  We are quite happy with how it turned out.  It was shipped off yesterday and we look forward to hearing from the customer.

Grill Sergeant Apron Gift Pairings
This past October at a craft fair a customer came up to us and told us the following...

"We are so happy you are here.  Last spring we saw your Grill Sergeant apron and wished we had purchased it then. We want to get the apron for our son for Christmas and plan to get Omaha Steaks to go with it."

The timing was great because I had been bouncing the idea around in my head of gift pairings for our items.  This was a great idea and I so appreciate them thinking of us and sharing their idea.  Here are some ideas of items to put with the Grill Sergeant Apron for a great gift.  Pick one, or some, or all and wow a lucky Grill Sergeant.

Cooking Birthday Party with Aprons for All!

The birthday boy will wear black and all his sous chefs in white aprons.
How fun for a soon to be teen's birthday party, a cooking theme!  We have just finished personalizing and creating aprons for all the invitees.  The birthday boy has a personalized black version of our Chef Extraordinaire apron.  His sous chefs will all be wearing white aprons with black embroidery of their names and the outline of the same chef hat as the guest of honor.

The rest of the family all has new aprons as well.  The other younger brothers will be wearing their Chef in Training aprons.  Mom choose the Savor apron for herself.  Dad will be wearing the navy Lord of the Manor.

Shared Tooth Pillow for 3 Boys

A Mom of 3 boys ordered a Tooth Pillow for the 3 of them to share with all 3 of their names embroidered on the back.  She just picked it up yesterday.  And one boy already has a loose tooth.  I guess he will be the first to use it.

New Product - Eiffel Tower Bon Appetit! Apron

Reversible Apron with towel bar and pocket
Just out of the sewing room is our latest apron.  One side has adorable Michael Miller Eiffel Tower fabric in light pink and the reverse side is a white scroll print on white.  The pink side has a towel bar and pocket at hip height.  We have created a coordinated microfiber towel to match the apron the Parisian Bon Appetit towel which can hang on the towel bar.  Across the bib and bottom of the apron is a charcoal ruffle adding a bit of Parisian flair.  The white side has an embroidery across the bib with "Bon Appetit!" capped with a chefs hat and an Eiffel Tower.  It turned out really great and would be an awesome gift!
