About Us
A Family Affair!
Hello from the PopWats Family to you! What started out as a way for Steven (PopWats himself!) to create meaningful memories for his family, has become a way to stay connected as all the kids have entered adulthood. It is now our mission to make lasting memories by integrating our wood designs with your special events and your favorite sports teams.
PopWats Studios is owned & operated by PopWats (Steven Watkinson) & MomWats (Suzan Watkinson). They were affectionally given these nicknames when their oldest daughter Cassidy was in high school, and her gang friends would come over every weekend to hang out in the basement to watch movies, play darts, air hockey, and eat all the snacks PopWats kept stocked. Konwatts (Connor Watkinson), 2nd in line, is currently pursuing his PHD in Neuroscience at Southern Illinois University, along with his girlfriend Stephanie who is pursuing her Master's in Counseling. Last, but certainly not least, is Caitlyn (also known as Birdie) who finished up her Master of Occupational Therapy and completed her first year of practice is getting married this March to her wonderful fiancé Derek!
The Three C's
A word from PopWats "My three children Cassidy, Connor, and Caitlyn really are the inspiration for this business. As everyone grew up and moved out, I thought it would be great for all of us to work together. A lot of the stuff I have created for my kids over the years is what has driven my ideas. I wanted a way to really be able to commemorate their accomplishments in a meaningful and unique way. Getting to make my youngest daughter a custom plaque and cross for her wedding is really something special." - PopWats
