My name is Sarah. I am a maker and accidental small business owner.
I make and sell handmade reusable beeswax food wraps, a natural food storage solution. I am passionate about doing our best to help reduce single-use plastics.
I took over this little slice of the Internet in 2013 as a place to share my memory keeping and craft projects. Since then, it’s grown with me through different life stages and is now home to Sweet Green Studios, my Passion Project. I'm happy to share our family's story as we strive to make a positive impact on this place we call home.

Since moving up to the country, we’ve been busy getting settled into our new home and routine.
To start off – since I am sure you’re wondering – the commute has been going well! It also helps that the winter has been super mild, making the drive to the GO bus and train station easy and enjoyable. We’ve settled into a nice schedule and things couldn’t be better!

Every day when I leave from work, Will reminds me to have a #productive day. As embarrassing as it is to admit that we actually say the word “hashtag,” it really is a wonderful way to send me off to work, as it reminds me to be on the ball and make the most of my time in the office.

Every so often, I find myself getting into a cycle of late nights, early mornings, and a messy lifestyle. It can become especially hard if you’re living alone or with a partner who doesn’t mind the clutter. My husband, for example, often keeps a massive pile of clothes in the bedroom that we have even started referring to as “The Mountain.”

It’s been almost three weeks since our lives have been turned upside down with the arrival of our new puppy Oliver-Sebastian. Will and I have fallen so in love with this little guy, making it hard to do anything else when we’re at home, which doesn’t make for a very productive household as we approach our Big Day!

Will and I have been preparing to bring our little puppy home in two weeks, and getting the house ready has made it all seem real. This week was productive on the wedding, puppy, and work fronts, and we are so thrilled to have the opportunity to enjoy a nice long relaxing weekend together.

As we inch closer to our special day, I feel as though our to-do list just keeps growing bigger. I always thought that the more you do, the less you will have on your list; but I have discovered that the opposite is true in the wonderful world of wedding planning.

Busy weeks are good weeks as long as they are productive, which is exactly what this week was. It was also a very fun week. Will and I celebrated the beginning of June, the 9th year anniversary of our gym Krudar Muay Thai, and spent some (much needed) quality time together.

What a productive week! As you may have noticed, we had a lot of changes around here. I am so thrilled to have made the change from Polkadot Pirates to Sweet Green Studios and can’t wait to see where this goes.

Short work weeks really are a catch 22; it’s great that we get to enjoy a long weekend, but it means we have less time to get more things done. Luckily for me, after a short but productive week (thanks to my awesome to do list and some scrapbooking time at work), Will and I headed east to Ottawa.
