Gardening Aprons and Tool Holders

This year I have found 3 trowels when emptying and spreading my compost heap. I am not claiming that a tool belt or pocketed apron would have prevented me loosing them in the first place but you never know.
Apart for comments about the small size of this apron it gets good reviews from Amazon buyers. They are particularly happy with the price (£8.25) and the functionality.

I have no discernible system and carry my secateurs, string and bits and pieces in numerous pockets of an old gardening jacket. When I get warm the jacket comes off. As I say no system.

There is a wider range of Aprons available from Amazon. There are some Laura Ashley ones for ladies and some more robust ones that the picture above. Have a look at the range.

If I was investing in an apron I would want it to:

carry tools but also a mobile phone and note book and pencil in a dry zippered pocket .
protect me from sharp prickles and cutting leaves and stabs by my own tools.
keep my gardening clothes protected from the worst of the dirt.
keep out of the way of my activity and actions.

Tool Belts and Holsters

I am not sure about tool belts that hang in front of me when I am gardening but there is a range of products available in garden centres, Homebase and B&Q
I like the look of the Felco holster and will put one on my wish list. amazon

Looks like I will have to belt up!
