Last week I spent an entire SEVEN days away from my computer. Oh it was so nice. I was back in the San Francisco Bay Area. I was born there. Raised there. Met my husband there. Graduated from college there. Got married there. There are so many memories in the San Ramon Valley. They are...
I have crafty friends. Crafty friends with good taste. & one night, we got together & crafted. I did not bring the supplies for this project, and boy was I sorry! This was a tutorial out of the gorgeous magazine life: beautiful. I decided, almost a year later, to tackle this project myself. & It...
I accidentally deleted the images for the DIY vinyl chalkboard that I was going to post today. :( So instead…I thought I would leave you with one of my new favorite quotes that I found last week over on Seeing the Everyday. I just can’t tell you how much I adore those words. My “little...
I have been meaning to do this project FOR.EV.ER. & whew. It’s done! Big thanks to all of you who helped me out over on the styleberry facebook page! You (a) shared what styleberry means to you, which helped me conceptualize this & get the creative juices flowing & (b) helped me combat some technical...
I am a bag girl. I looooove a good handbag. What I really love is having a handbag that no one else has. BUT…since diaper bags tend not to be one-of-a-kind finds…mine are not all that unique. I have been able to test out a few of the very well known bags for mamas &...
“OOh. That is a nice bag.” “Thanks Babe! I love it. I am so so so happy with it. Not what I expected…but better…” “How much did it cost?” “Umm…well…came from my account sooooo…….” “Jeeeeeeeez-us! You & your giant, expensive bags!” :) Ah, the joys of having your own money. I am a HUGE fan...
Today, when I needed to smile the most, I got mail. Not just any mail, Studio Mela mail. & it is perfect. Despite having the most emotionally taxing weekend of my life, I smiled. This is not a week that I am ever going to want to remember, but at least I can remember that...
Sometimes, I think that hair stylists need counseling degrees. Why? Because they have a really hard job. They have to listen to us crazy women talk for two hours straight. I think I would go mad if I had their job. I have been SO SO lucky to have found an amazing hair stylist with...
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.
