It’s time for Tipnut’s Weekly Update! Today you’ll find a *BIG* update for free apron patterns (including 3 free pattern booklets to download), a free ebook download for how to make crepe paper flowers plus a fresh batch of crafts, DIY projects and clever ideas for you to check out. Have fun!

About Tipnut.com

  • 50+ Free Apron Patterns You Can Make: A much overdue undertaking but I’m glad I did it! I decided to remove all the vintage patterns from my personal collection that I published here on Tipnut and compile them into three separate ebook downloads for you (free of course!). They are sorted into Full Aprons, Half Aprons and Assorted (Men’s, Children’s and Crochet). These may take a few seconds to load since the files are pretty hefty, but they’re worth the wait ;) .
  • 40+ Free Apron Patterns & Tutorials: A makeover from top to bottom, this features a large collection of free apron patterns that I’ve found around the net. I’ve kept several of the tutorials from the original collections I had published previously but added a bunch of new goodies too. Lots of nice stuff!
  • I made an ebook for a vintage tutorial showing how to make crepe paper flowers and added it to the page 50+ Paper Flower Tutorials & Templates: {Free}. It was previously on its own page here on Tipnut but I decided to remove it and publish it in this format instead (a site decluttering effort).

    Thank you so much for taking the time and effort to make this website! I look forward to every weekly update. So much fun stuff to do!

  14. Sharon says:

    Like so many people I look forward to receiving your weekly updates. I have learned so many interesting tips, etc. from your website! I had a rusty stain on a pair of light coloured shorts and got it off with mixing lemon juice & water and letting it sit til it dried. You can’t tell where the stain was. Thank you so much for that tip! Another one of my many favs is cleaning the floor of my oven. I had sugar baked on and couldn’t use oven cleaner because it is a self-cleaning stove. I used your tip and sprinkled baking soda on the stain then sprayed vinegar on it and let it sit over night. I couldn’t believe how easy it was to wipe up the mess the next day. I can’t say enough good things about this website. It’s gratifying to know that there are kind people out there sharing so many interesting things! You truly are a very special person!!!

  15. Mara says:
