About A little bit about Anodyne Design and a little bit about the life behind it. I'm Shannon, and I'm in love with all things creative. If I can't do it, I wish I could, and I'll probably try. More... |
I’m working on a project tonight. It’s been awhile since I’ve made anything. I’ve been spending time working on other projects for a little while, like painting furniture and reading books. Oh, and cleaning my office. The disorganized state of my space really made me feel like I couldn’t make anything. Now it’s in pretty good order, and I feel free to create again. So tonight, I’m working on a stack of… well, I’ll show you when I finish them.
Oh, I also spent a bunch of time last week taking photos and updating the shop. I’ll be stocking new items in there this weekend, too.
Seriously, yum. These samosas are delicious. They take a fairly significant time investment, but really aren’t that difficult to make. And they are so tasty, they are worth. every. minute.
A couple of photos from last weekend’s market. I love all these colors.
Anodyne Design will be away for the next two weekends. I’ve got a new baby to meet and friends to see! I’ll be back in time for the last RiverFront Market on September 24th. Hope to see you there!
A couple of dear friends of mine got married last October, and they asked me to make their wedding favors, a massive parliament of Little Hootie Owls.
Each guest received a box upon arriving at the reception. The box was labelled with their table number and contained a Little Hootie Owl. We also decided it would be a good idea to make Big Hoot owls for the bride and groom.
They sort of served as off-the-cake cake toppers, or maybe, a guard of honor for the cake? I love to think that the Big Hoots and the Little Hooties made a sweet little memento that people will actually keep. Something worth holding on to, that serves as a warm reminder of a lovely day. Not that little bags of jordan almonds aren’t totally awesome or anything.
Thanks, friends, for letting me be a part of your wedding.
