Whilst having lots of lovely walks and looking after my kids I’m also supposed to be running my own business. I’ve got very little done in terms of work these last 2 days but I’ve decided to make the store live as waiting for the right time now seems a little insignificant. 🤞🏻🙂

Shop arrived....65 sheets for a family of 5...😬💩😅

Mucky and happy these guys just nailed a 4 mile walk from Delph village up to the Upper Castleshaw Reservoir all the way round and back again. 👊🏻 #thegreatoutdoors #keepactive #OldhamHour

Day 4 - we did Dovestones up to Chew. Kids were grumpy but we made it and it was so worth it, even they agreed! 4.8 miles. I’m not sure how sustainable it is to expect this from the kids everyday but this week has been pretty good under the circumstances. #OldhamHour 👍🏻

Day 7 - today the kids and I headed over to Digby Reservoir trying to get a little off the beaten track. A shorter walk than those last week. It was nice to be out but I’m beginning to wonder how responsible it is even though there were few there...😕

Dovestone Reservoir will close from this evening (March 23) as official government advice to observe good social distancing is stepped up. United Utilities has announced it is to close all its reservoir and recreational site car parks. saddind.co.uk/dovestone-rese…

Pretty blooms from the garden is as far as we got today...#homeschool #stayhome #staysafe

My 7 year olds recent conversation with his Uncle! 😅

I'm finding it pretty tricky to stay active on here whilst managing everything that comes with the kids being home. The one platform I am managing is Instagram, if you follow along over there you might even see the odd bit of doodling from me too...! instagram.com/studioandstore/

Small round up of some of the new items in StudioandStore now! Most are made by talented makers based throughout the UK with a collective aim to offer alternative and more conscious consumerism whislg also offering beauty and individuality. #sustainabledesign #Sustainability

It's been a while since I posted over here, we've been super busy over the last 18 months building our new brand Studio + Store over on Instagram but we are conscious we've been neglecting other areas so we're going to 'try' and be a little more active over here moving forward!

We are expanding our product range at Studio + Store on the run up to the festive season with lots of new and exclusive products arriving in the next few weeks from makers and manufacturers based in and around the UK. studioandstore.com we'd really appreciate your support!

A store entirely focused towards UK makers and Manufacturing, we're not alone there however we know we are building something entirely new with many exclusive items from carefully selected makers like these popular aluminium plant pots, hand-spun in Yorkshire! #OldhamHour
