Garden Gloves & Aprons

  • Learn More About Garden Gloves & Aprons

    A garden apron is a short apron that helps keep your clothes clean from dirt and typically provides pockets for commonly used gardening tools. The shortened length is designed for easy kneeling and mobility. Oftentimes, a garden apron is made of waterproof material or something durable like canvas to protect you from the elements or scrapes from beautiful yet biting plants like rose bushes.


    On Etsy, you’ll find specialized aprons for different types of outdoor chores. An egg-gathering apron has many small pockets designed to hold single eggs so your breakfast doesn’t break before it hits the pan. Fruit-picking aprons have one large pocket that can hold dozens of apples and stone or citrus fruits.

    When it comes time to choose from the bouquet of gardening gloves available from sellers on Etsy, there are a few things to keep in mind. Garden gloves should have a durable palm to guard against cuts and scrapes from thorns and branches. They should be fitted for dexterity, but not too tight to be uncomfortable. An adjustable closure at the wrist helps to keep out dirt when you’re wrist-deep in soil. Waterproof gloves are ideal for planting seeds in spring showers. Long gardening gloves go from fingertip to elbow for maximum coverage, perfect for repotting deep roots or carrying trimmed branches. Leather garden gloves are durable, long-lasting, and offer waterproof protection to help you through many annual blooms.

    Many Etsy sellers make custom garden gloves and personalized garden aprons, which make special gifts for the gardener in your life. Grandma will feel like the best in show when she puts on garden gloves inscribed with her name, and Dad can confidently head to the shed with an embroidered garden apron with pockets for all his tools. Get a pair of matching aprons or one-of-a-kind gloves for your favorite gardening duo as a housewarming present. Choose from unique designs that have a place for each type of gardening accessory for all of your sunny days tending to the yard.
