I think I have been living under a rock!
How in the world have I gone this long and not known about this amazing blog!
I hope you got a chance to see yesterday’s post of some of our most popular posts. It was fun to go back and remember.
We are gearing up for our FIRST ANNIVERSARY here at Polka Dot Poplars on April 1st. We are going to announce some new features, giving away a few birthday presents, and sharing what we’ve enjoyed and learned from blogging.
Today and tomorrow we are going to recap our ten most popular posts from the last year.
Hello Readers! This week I had planned an awesome tutorial about painting my daughters room, but I all of a sudden got a pinched nerve in my arm and now can barely move it! Let me tell you what, OUCH!! Maybe its the universe telling me to take it easy this week, so I have. I am hoping to show you guys next week what it looks like! (Fingers crossed!)
So this week I am sharing a sneak peek of a project my hubby will be making soon! My husband (who you will meet a little later) found this beauty for free!!!
Watch our video for a sneak peek!!
Warning!! (He is a dork, but I LOVE him!)
I love Spring and the newness of life it brings, the warmer weather, and the beauty it brings.
I also love creating fun new things and one of my new favorite things to use are old vintage bed springs as the base. You might remember the crows I made for Halloween here.
I recently volunteered to decorate a table for my church’s women’s activity.
Can I just tell you how hard a time I had trying to decide what I wanted on the table!!
Holy crap there are SO many ideas and tons of inspiration out there! (What did we do without Pinterest!?)
I think we all have in our minds and hearts a plan of how we want our lives to go. I know I did. I wanted more than anything to be married and have children. My second goal was to become a nurse, but it wasn’t as big of a goal as becoming a mother. I did go to nursing school and was close to being finished but during school I got married and pregnant and I quit school because I was going to be a MOTHER. I was thrilled.
We hope you got to see Jessica on Studio 5 today. If you didn’t here’s the link.

Remember a few weeks ago I posted about the crib benches I did and that we might have some exciting news coming up!?
Well the time has come and I am happy to announce that we are going to be on Studio 5 with Brooke Walker this Thursday!!
To say I’m not nervous is an understatement, but I am so excited for this opportunity!
My sister Brittany and I have added more things to feature on the show. You will see more on Thursday but here is a little preview.

I’ve always been a fan of coconut. I remember my dad buying whole coconuts at the grocery store, breaking it open, and giving all of us a piece to eat. I know for many it’s an acquired taste or many just don’t care for it. But, did you know it’s considered a SUPER FOOD? Coconut comes in many forms and I think everyone can find a form of it that they like. There is coconut oil, coconut milk, coconut flour, and plain old flaked coconut. I love it! One of my favorite’s is coconut gelato.
I’ve been gathering some recipes using this amazing food and wanted to share.
