Strolling Down Memory Lane
January 25, 2008|Comments (none)
Only a few moments before I must rush off to deliver bread to a friend down the road but I couldn’t help but post a few vintage commercials (before there were wardrobe malfunctions). I have apron photos to add but will have to do that later. Have a blessed day! — Am back and have added some photos of my progress. So far, I have one apron made (minus the strings) and four more are cut & pinned. Four of the five have a striped side with a floral pocket and the reverse on the other side. I ended up with more floral fabric than striped so I decided to make one apron with a green side and pocket. Check them out and tell me what you think!
I took the picture before sewing the pockets on or pinning the sides together to be sewn — thus you could see how it begins.

Please leave us a comment. We love reading them and feel that they are the best part of the site. Thank you!
Thanks for the trip down memory lane. Commercials were so much better back then. I wish I would have known about the Luster Creme and I would have stocked up on it since I have trouble getting my hair to have any body. LOL. I will be back to check out your pictures of the aprons! Have a great day!
I especially loved the commercial by the National Association of Broadcasters. Where have the simple days gone and the societal concern for the well being of our children? Oh my, we have hit one of my hot buttons and as Lips of an Angel points out, ranting does not do anyone any good.
True that, Tia Julie. Josh and I really wish our society could embrace more of those values. I watched the NAB commercial and felt a real sense of loss — why isn’t our society as concerned with protecting our children as we once were? When did we confuse “socially aware” and “open minded” with overexposure to sex, cursing, and violence?
Yes, Sami — Luster Creme would be nice to have about now, eh? I hear you! I’m eager to read what you think of the aprons!
