Tabula rasa ( clean slate ) - I line the top of my workbench with a thin sheet material such as .25” plywood. Because over time it gets beaten up, scarred and damaged. It has become a sort of ritual to me when I replace it. I gratefully remember the projects I’ve worked on on it. The writings , the calculations, the spills etc. As I clean the slate I get excited for the projects to come and experience. #tabularasa #cleanslate #blankslate #featurelessmind #untaughtstate #squareone #reset #studio

👟🌷New Shoes & Spring Days🌷👟 A lovely day to try out these @adidas Terrex Swift R3 Goretex trainers in the most beautiful colour, perfect for spring and summer @sportsshoes. So far so good 👍 they held up well during our stroll around #hawes but are yet to be put to a real test 😁! Although it was sunny, it was quite cool so the @mountaim_warehouso coat helped keep the chills away too! The girls had a blast being pushed round in the amazing @babyjogger on what truly felt like the first day of spring 🌷 and we're hoping for another sunny repeat tomorrow. Where have you been today? . . . #untaughtstate #newtrainers #adidas #hawes #daysoutwithus #babyjogger #terrexgoretex #springdays #sunshinesaturday
🌸💮Today we took the girls to @jjs.jungle for the first time. The girls had fun exploring the new toys and loved looking around at everything in sight! We even managed to have a nice hot latte too! We would definitely recommend taking your tiny tots to @jjs.jungle. We had an enjoyable afternoon meeting friends and watching our girls have fun 🙂 #untaughtstate #daysoutwithkids #jjsjungleormskirk #twinlife #indoorplayarea #familyblogger
🎬📽️ The Age of Adaline - we've had a busy half-term but managed to squeeze in watching @ageofadaline on @amazonuk. We both really enjoyed watching this, an interesting plot with solid performances from @blakelively and @michielhuisman. They both compliment each other in this twisting tale, and a super cameo from #harrisonford to finish off! The twins also had a watch and seemed engaged, sleep is not something they enjoy doing anymore 👶👶 So as a family we're giving this! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Any recommendations, we might need some midnight films to devour 😂? 🎬📽️ . . . #untaughtstate #ageofadaline #blakelively #femalelead #filmreview #reviewedbyus *Disclaimer - Photos courtesy of @google
🌊🌊Popped down to #anotherplace by Anthony Gormley. No statues to be seen today, buried by the excessive waves. We enjoyed a 20 minute blast in the rain and avoided being consumed by the waves 😃! Now enjoying a Hazelnut Latte from @honestcoffee.shop after a dismal breakfast coffee from @mcdonaldsuk had to be generously recycled in the bin. The girls are now chilling in their @maxicosi_eu seats watching the world go by 😁 Happy Sunday!🌊🌊 . . . #untaughtstate #daysoutwithus #coffeelovers #stormyweather #anotherplace #crosby
🐒🐆🐘 We visited @blackpoolzoo a few weeks ago. Giving the girls a chance to see all the animals, they had a fab day! They have a fantastic dinosaur section, unfortunately we failed to take any pictures 😂! We can assure you though well worth a visit. Lots to see and do without breaking the bank. Where is your favourite spot in the Northwest to go animal spotting? We're on the lookout for more adventures 🐘🐆🐒 . . . #untaughtstate #lancashire #animals #blackpoolzoo #dinosaur #zoo #daysout
🍰☕ We explored @greathousebarn yesterday and had a great day out in Rivington. The cafe serves a fantastic selection of cake and coffee. We had the most amazing sandwiches even though we'd arrived just before closing time, the food was still fresh and the staff were lovely! Rivington was ace, a nice walk through the walled gardens even whilst #stormdudley was brewing. ☕🍰 . . . #untaughtstate #rivington #daysout #placestovisit #lancashire #coffeeandcake

💛MAKER: @untaughtstate 💛 Location: West Lancashire, UK ✨Do you need something to help you unwind? Our one of a kind candles are handcrafted by US in West Lancashire. Every box is hand dipped and each lid made to match. The candle itself is a beautiful blend of four pure essential oils combined with vegetable wax making them vegan friendly. This gives our candles an amazing clean burn, unlike some other candles which contain paraffin wax and fragrance oils which it has been suggested can cause health issues. We handpour and box every candle ourselves, packing them in biodegradable @woodwooluk to keep them safe. Our blend is designed to eleviate stress and reduce anxiety✨ Thank you! #untaughtstate #candlesbyus #mentalhealthawareness #treatyourself #bespoke #weddinggift #bridesmaids #brightenyourday #anxiety #stress #pureessentialoils #vegetablewax #veganfriendly #westlancashire #madeintheuk #madelocally #madeinbritain
