I’m am currently in the wonderful state of Wyoming, I’m a Melanoma survivor, wife of a wonderful man, and mommy of twin girls and another little girl who I swear is a 14 year old in a 4 year old body. We are currently expecting our first little man to our bunch and cant wait for that adventure. (He has to come out sometime right!?) We just finished building our first house and I cant wait to make it into our home. I have so many ideas running through my head sometime I cant sleep!

Stars and Stripes Pant

By 1 Comment

It has been a wonderful, hectic, crazy week for me. I gave birth to our little man over the weekend and he is the most beautiful baby, but he is not ready to come home right away so with all that and my healing and hormones going whack, I am posting a project I did a year ago. (You guys will give me a break right!?)

 I really liked how easy it was to put together and I know I am the kind of gal that looks for projects that turn out cute but take the least amount of effort and time. So here it is… my stars and striped pants.

So I have been wanting some ruffle pants for my girls,

I mean they are so stinkin cute, but I was not about to pay $60.00 for an outfit!
I thought maybe I could do it myself.
Now I am NOT a sewer, I can do a hem and sew in a straight line and all, but that is it.
Growing up my sisters and I all got a sewing machine’s when we turned 14 (I think)
So I have had this machine for a while and I am so grateful to have it. Thanks mom!
This is what I came up with.

Dresser Transformation

By 2 Comments

This dresser has had many faces and it has been well used and loved.

With this new baby coming we needed a changing table and this was the perfect height for it, so again we gave it another face lift.

My Framaholic Dining Room

(Happy Dance!!!)

My home is slowly but surely coming together!

I think I am a frame-aholic.  I collect them, I guess. So, when we built our new home I knew I had to come up with some way to transform our blank walls and to use all my frames at the same time. I have to admit I had some help. Being 8 months pregnant getting up and down is not so easy (shocker!)  My wonderful mother was here to help us unpack and she helped me arrange my frames.

Hello!!

Hello Readers!

I’m Jessica, the oldest sister of our Polkadot Poplars, the hugely pregnant one. (Yes there is only one in there!)

I’m am currently in the wonderful state of Wyoming, I’m a Melanoma survivor, wife of a wonderful man, and mommy of twin girls and another little girl who I swear is a 14 year old in a 4 year old body. We are currently expecting our first little man to our bunch and cant wait for that adventure. (He has to come out sometime right!?) We just finished building our first house and I cant wait to make it into our home. I have so many ideas running through my head sometime I cant sleep!

I love all things classic. Movies, clothes, music etc. I channel women like Doris Day, Debbie Reynolds with maybe a little Lucille Ball in there, too. I love to transform spaces (Almost too much I think, things change on a daily basis at my house.) and I like to refinish those poor neglected items people forget.   If you’re reading this I hope you’re here to stay and will enjoy what my mother and sisters and I come up with.
