Today over on The Creative Mama I am talking about something I have been thinking about a lot lately. Too many friends have told me why they are waiting to take pictures…& it hurts my heart to think of the precious memories lost over silly concerns. So hop on over & take a look… The...
Metadata: f/2.8, 1/320, ISO 1600 ••• I am often an overcommitt-er. & when I am, I get SUPER cranky. Then my kiddies get cranky. & it’s all downhill from there. I’ve been trying very hard to really pare down my commitments lately. I like free days. I like wiggle room. & I NEED it to...
I’m itching. Itching to dig into these images I have from my sweet, tiny newborn. He’s now over twice as big as he was. & it makes me sad. Last week Stephanie posted this on The Creative Mama and it brought me to tears. It is my favorite. Ever. Caroline watches it at least five...
Metadata: f/3.2, 1/125, ISO 3200 ••• I have not been very lovely to live with lately. I’ve had a lot on my mind and not a lot of my hubby around and I have been taking my sleep deprivation & struggles with my currently exhausting not-a-second-for-myself schedule out on him. It came to a head...
Moby & I had a very brief and unfulfilling relationship two and a half years ago. I wanted him to be a certain way and he wasn’t. I didn’t try hard enough. I wasn’t willing to bend. It wasn’t his fault. But he was just wrong. So we broke up. But…we have recently rekindled things...
Wishing you the loveliest of days with your beautiful families. How lucky we are to be called “mama.”:) xoxo (images above by the talented Kate L Photography…she gave me such a gift!!) P.S. FuzziBunz is celebrating us mamas & offering 5% off and free shipping through the end of the day today, Sunday 5/13. Just...
Metadata: f/2.8, 1/160, ISO 2500 ••• It’s been a long week. I haven’t seen a lot of my husband. Lots of kids not sleeping. I don’t know about you, but I NEED quiet time in the middle of the day to be a good mommy. When I don’t get at least 20 minutes when they...
Many of you know I am a product junkie. I love trying new stuff. & I especially love new stuff that makes my life easier. Well…baby #2 has come with a lot of new challenges, but also some really great new stuff. Baby things just keep getting better & better! I am using a few...
Hi! Hello! I am Shawna, the founder of Styleberry Blog. This creative corner of the internet has become a learning haven for moms and creatives, offering a warm and encouraging nudge to those who wish to be better and do better, but often don't know where to start. From Decorating to DIY to Diapers and Paleo-ish Dishes, I strive to make the complicated simple and empower women to take action beyond their personal comfort zone. I subscribe to the Shine Theory & so strongly believe that we shine when the women around us shine and mutual support—lifting up instead of tearing down--will always be the culture here. Are you in? I hope so! Beyond the computer, I run Styleberry Creativewhere I work with clients to create low fuss, high function spaces that are pretty and practical in San Antonio, Texas and beyond. I LOVE making a house a home. My own studs out renovation is almost complete and I am now back to working with clients. Please don't hesitate to drop me a line if you'd like to work together! I hope you’ll join me on this fun new adventure! Xo.
