    Can anyone recommend a source for ordering personalized aprons? Not ordering in bulk, just want to screen a logo on maybe half a dozen aprons. I know there's CafePress, but I've been disappointed by the flimsy quality of their non-apron products. These aprons will be worn by folks who actually cook. (And, no, I don't need these in time for Christmas :))

    Thanks in advance for any thoughts--
    Sharon

    Culinary Classics manufactures all types of chef wear, including aprons, and will happily sell six aprons or six hundred. Odds are if you order from a specialty shop in the area they will simply send it to CC. Ask for Johnathan.

    Check out Zazzle, but I've only ordered personalized postage stamps them. They frequently have various coupon codes.

    Would you be interested in embroidered aprons? I have a friend who has a business (I'm sure she's not the only one) that can take a paper design, digitize it, and embroider it on an apron (or anything, really). She did this for two groups I'm involved with and they came out great. Let me know if that's of interest and I'll point you in her direction.

    Thanks for the recommendations, all. Hopefully, I'll have some pictures to share in the next month or two. I'll definitely call Jonathan. Sharon, can you please send me (or post here) your friend's info? My budget is decent, and I want a good quality product--just don't want to spend a fortune. Thanks, Pucca, for reminding me of Zazzle. I've gotten stamps I liked from them, too. I'm just generally wary of these big, we'll-personalize-anything businesses.

    I'd check Etsy.com. There are plenty of cute ones there, and many vendors will customize per your specs.

    Hi Sharon,

    I'll send you a PM with her information. I'm not sure where she gets her apron stock from, but when she embroidered some shirts for me, they were from Lands End, so she provides quality textiles for projects she undertakes.
