I am very excited for my 8 year old daughters birthday party. It’s a Santa’s Workshop with crafty projects! There is going to be a lot of paint and I really don’t want our guest clothes to be ruined if we spill a little paint! I wanted to get everyone an apron but realized that could be really expensive. I figured plastic tablecloths would work if I could make them look cute! They are really easy and fast to make.
Supplies
1Plastic tablecloth= 8 aprons
Child size apron for template
3 spools of Black satin ribbon 7/8” x 18 feet
White glitter paper for buckles
Hot Glue Gun
Sewing machine
Black thread
Step 1-
Fold your tablecloth so there is 4 layers. Place your apron on top and cut out the aprons. Don’t cut out the straps. You will sew ribbon for straps.
Step 2-
Cut out the ribbon for the neck and waist straps as long as you need. Pin the ribbon to the apron and sew on. Cut out a buckle and hot glue on to the apron, to complete the Santa look! You are done!

You could simplify it even more by using black electrical tape instead of sewing ribbon since it is fairly disposable anyway… Put the sticky sides of two pieces of tape together for the straps. Just a thought from a non-sew-er :). Love this site and all your great ideas! Thanks!
