I cut the top half off to make a square block with the logo, set aside. Remove the bias tape (it goes around the edges of the apron), set aside.

Sew the bottom half into a tote (nothing fancy, just a shape that holds something, I think I did a taco and sewed the sides up), sew on the patch made from the logo, then see the bias tape as long handles.

I live in a city known for influencers and I make up some story of it being a limited edition bag from the grand opening of the Chicago roastery or the 500th sbux or whatever. Whatever insanity that seems plausible to someone obsessed with sbux gear to try and find one

Edit: I turned two into a sexy costume by basically sewing the bottom half to a full one. Not much work and a big Convo starter at Halloween parties. I have one or two for cooking too, and a few left in my closet...after donating extras to partners who wanted more when I left

My gave mine to my mom. She likes wearing them while cooking, she thinks it’s fun. I think it’s kinda cringey, but my mom is having fun and I love her and like to see her happy.

Take them to literally any Starbucks. U don’t even have to say anything. Just set them down near the registers. They’ll take them.

If you’re on good terms with the store you came from you can always wash them and take them there. But I also like what the other posts are saying about repurposing them.

I donated mine (some) to the ceramics class at my college

well i only have one green apron from when i was hired so if you’d like to send them my way i wouldn’t mind paying for shipping 😅

The technically correct response is, you’re supposed to return them to Starbucks when you quit.

honestly i’ll take ‘em if you don’t want them

I sold mine on eBay lol

Congratulations!! I see a lot of suggestions here, one more is to give them to some kids to play “Barista” with! I know I would have loved to have one when I was a kid!

burn them in a bonfire. Not really, that would probably be messy…

Burn

I had a GIANT bonfire and sacrificed them to the gods. It was great.

Sell them online to all the fanatics

before i left i just messaged the work group chat and gave them to my old coworkers! everybody always wants an extra apron. if you're still in touch with anyone i'm sure you can ask them to message for you or something like that.

Drop off at a store or fire pit

Technically, you’re supposed to turn them back in to your store when you quit. But most people don’t. If you see or know someone who does I bet you could make a cool quilt out of it.

I took all my aprons and pins, ebay'd em and made a couple hundred.

You could try to sell them on ebay 😂😂 im being serious, not sure how much luck you will have but when I was looking around on ebay one day, people were selling them !

Also how’d you get so many we struggle to keep one

Burn it

i burned mine lmao

My old store had a few extras stored in the back in case a partner forgot their aprons, or spilled something on theirs while on bar! Maybe you can give it back?

On the other hand, using them as regular aprons while cooking is also a good idea. My dad likes to wear my old aprons around the house when he's cooking :)

[removed]

i would gladly take a couple

wait you guys take them home?? here in canada we just throw them into the dirty apron bin and they bring us washed ones every couples days…. we never take them home lol. except red ones we keep those

see if there are any baristas online who need new ones but can’t afford them!! either that or donate them

I’ll take them

Burn it

My coworker who got fired gave me all of their aprons so now I have a ton!

I would take a few off your hands lmao

ill take one🥹
