Do you wear a pinny?

When I’m working in the kitchen I do. Especially when I’m baking, but for other jobs too.

I do, in the kitchen and while cleaning. I save my older ones with stains for cleaning the bathroom. I've ruined many clothes with bleach stains while scrubbing the tub.

Just the other day I took my apron off too early, and managed to get an oil stain on a nice sweater while prepping for book group. Had a blob of oil right in the middle of my chest.

Yes I do it's a Sophie Alport Trees at the moment. For Christmas I bought Bubbles and Fizz last year I shall wear that. I have blue and white striped one too.

I do and they have to have a large pocket so I have pen and notebook to hand.

Yes, always and also when doing art. It’s saved many a grease mark or bleach splash on my clothes 😊

Wear aprons, but not pinny's.

Like others, I am a messy person and i have a whole wardrobe of them.The one I put on for cooking, one for cleaning, worn far less and I have a custom made one for the garden.

It was made by DD and is in three layers with a waterproof layer in the middle and a whole series of different size pockets scattered down the front so that opened and empty seed packets can go in separate pockets, ties in another and secateurs in a third. very useful.

I have some full pinafore type of aprons, one is a flowery Cath Kidson one, one is green stripes, one is a plain burgundy one.
Depending on how messy the recipe is depends on which one I wear. I don’t like chilli sauce on the flowery one.
I don’t wear them for anything other than cooking, they were all gifts from the children as they noticed the flour/oils splashes on me!

Yes, when I am cooking or baking. I am a messy cook and it has saved many of my clothes from greasy or oily stains.

Never owned or worn one since I left school.

I have worn mine since I got a tiny splash of bleach on a new, and expensive, plain coloured dress.

I wear an apron when cooking and baking as I'm very messy and tend to have flour bedecked boobs otherwise

The same here, it is not the best look when answering the door either.
Always wear where bleach is concerned, it is so easy not to notice a tiny splash on clothes.
I have four aprons, and now we are talking of them would like a Christmassy one.

I’ ll wear a pinny to protect my clothes when cooking and always for baking. It depends on which clothes I have on and how messy the cooking- yesterday I was wearing a dressy top that was a gift ( and may be difficult to wash) so on went the pinny. If I was wearing old washable clothes I would only don a pinny for baking.

I wear a pinny for cooking it is blue and white material, until recently I always wore a PVC one until Dh pointed out my slippers that were wet and covered in flour. For 40 years I had not realised water runs down PVC.Silly me.
My grans wore enveloping pennies that covered all their clothes and for really dirty work had something called a coarse brat which was like a sack hung from the waist. Why brat I haven't a clue.

pinny not penny

Only when cooking Christmas dinner. I once bought myself a nice Christmassy one with a robin on, and left it at dd’s house nearly 3 years ago - Gdc3 was arriving any day so I was cooking - and I’ve still not remembered to retrieve it.

I really ought to wear one for cleaning (when I do any, that is) - I’m still furious with myself for splashing bleach on a newish linen SeaSalt tunic. £69 or so down the drain. 🤬

yes when I am messy cook like me I need a pinny or I would be washing my clothes every day!

'I always wore a PVC one until Dh pointed out my slippers that were wet'

😅 I bought a PVC one for Mr A for when he cooked dinner. I once saw him spill some oil, which he wiped up from the table, but when he turned around later he had a stream of oil running down the front of his pinny and onto his shoes.

I have red quilted one, which I noticed has a slight burn mark down the top. I can only assume that I leaned too far over the gas hob at some point, so I am very glad I was wearing it - could have been very painful.

My pinny is a part of my daily outfit. It spends more time on than off. I have requested DH to bury me in my pinny and bicycle clips!

I do at work but not at home

I sometimes wear an apron when cooking/baking, but I also have of those wrap-around overall? types, which was originally my granny's although never worn. Think Hilda Ogden - she probably wore one. When this comes out it is a sign that serious cleaning is about to happen!

Yes, yes, yes! Both DH and I wear aprons. We have a large (shared) collection; most have pockets. I can't imagine us doing any cooking or cleaning effectively, without an apron. (But I have to change into my gardening clothes, if using bleach!)

My daughter made me a Christmas apron. It has a large Christmas tree on it with small decorations at the end of each branch.

The bicycle clips make my mind boggle. What are you expecting to run up there? My DH used to tuck his trousers into his socks when we had a rat, bicycle clips would have been handier.

My latest pinny was a bargain from Tesco just before the pandemic, heavy twill for the bargain price of £1.50 reduced from £15.
