Measurement Conversion Apron Saves Time in the Kitchen [Stuff We Like]

If you're a master in the kitchen, you may not blink an eye when it's time to figure out how many tablespoons are in two-thirds cup. For the rest of us, there's this handy measurement conversion apron.

(Click the images for a closer look.)

Once you've got the ball rolling in the kitchen, nothing puts a damper on your head of steam like an unwieldy, unfamiliar unit conversion. Sure you could use Google's conversion calculator, but your hands are covered with flour and your keyboard's already dirty enough as is. That's why we love the idea behind this clever apron. In addition to sporting a simple conversion table between cups, ounces, tablespoons, and teaspoons, the apron also offers common substitutions for various baking pans.

As you can see in the picture, the conversion table is upside-down, making it easy to read for the wearer. The apron will set you back $19 on Etsy, but if you're not keen on the price, you could surely steal the idea for your own DIY version. Thanks Gil!
