So, once again, I’m going to try to be a better blogger. And I’m going to start updating my Etsy shop again. Pop on over now and see all the new things I listed today!

As for where I’ve been, it’s a fairly simple story. Back in July I got a new job that ate up way too many hours. 12 hour days and almost 2 hours a day driving to and from work were not uncommon. So just before Christmas, I started a new job, with shorter days and a much more reasonable commute. And I can already see a difference. Hopefully, blog readers and shop visitors will begin to see one, too!

New to the group are the light brown owls, and I think they make a great addition to the more natural looking owl colors.

Additionally, you may notice that Anodyne Design is sporting a pretty, owly new logo. Just in case you missed it, here it is:

Anodyne Design Logo

Isn’t is lovely? I thought it was time for Anodyne Design to get a more identifiable and consistent image, and I really think this will do the trick. The marvelous work was done by Amber of a. mabe design. I’m creative, but by no means a graphic designer. It was a pleasure to work with someone as talented and professional as she is. I can’t say enough nice things about her or the logo. It’s nice to be so happy with something!

Each set contains five magnets covered with either matching or coordinating fabric. They’re cute and practical. These are the types of magnets I use in my own kitchen, so I know that they’re strong and will last. We tend to use magnets to hold up more than one thing at a time around here, and these ones are up to the challenge!

I’ve been neglecting my shop lately, and it’s time to stop that! I’ve added a bunch of new card wallets, wristlets, and mini journals to the shop over the past 2 days, and will be adding more items throughout the week! Thanks to those of you who have gently encouraged me to update my shop (you know who you are.)

I put the finishing touches on a batch of 10 new fabric journal covers today, and have started adding them to the shop. I love all the different fabric, and I changed up the decorative stitching on the covers to better coordinate with the accent fabrics. I especially love the scalloped edges I used on a few (and it felt good to use a mostly neglected feature on my sewing machine!) I will be adding more of these little lovelies to the shop throughout the week.
