I was honoured to marry my best friend on July 31st, 2016…
🙄 blegh too much sap…
I’m not very “romantic” and roll my eyes at the ends of Disney princess movies BUT in all seriousness, I did marry someone amazing & it was one of the best days of my life.

For my birthday I decided to treat myself for a haircut. I originally went to this new place by my house. Price was good and it was so convenient for me so I went in. I’m a trained hairdresser and have not had the ‘real’ salon experience in over 7 years. Going in I decided not to share this detail about myself in case it made her nervous. [Read more…]
I absolutely love making things from scratch. When My boyfriend, Matt, and I were living our year without plastic (single use disposables & packaging) we had to make a lot of things from scratch. It’s such an adventure trying to figure out ways to do things. Sometimes you’d be surprised at how easy most things are to do from scratch.
That being said, Matt and I had to create all these christmas gifts for our family and friends sans plastic. This hot chocolate & Marshmallow duo quickly became popular as it was fairly easy and very impressive.

I am so into DIY projects especially if they will help me save money. Making makeup remover wipes are something that has been on my list for a long time. I researched different ways to make it and from reading reviews on all the different recipes I came up with my very own.
Most of the recipes I came across explained how to use a paper towel roll and cutting it in half. Let’s be honest here…who has time or patience for that!?! I definitely do not. Since this posed a problem I quickly troubleshooted and came up with an easy solution, Cotton pads. I got mine at the dollar store at $1.00 for 50. I now felt confident that I can attempt this recipe with out the mess and frustration that ensues by sawing a paper towel roll.
Here’s the video how
My Pinterest vision turned reality when I found these two blank canvasses in the apartment. I used tape and three colours to make a geometrical pattern. I posted on instagram (@SimplySarahxoxo) and everyone loved it and wanted to know how. I decided to add two small canvasses to make the ‘L’ shaped canvas into a square and film a DIY how to video.
Here it is 🙂
