It began with tears & it ended with tears. The happy kind. That morning we rushed in her room and sang her happy birthday. I don’t think she knew how to respond to her crazy parents, but she giggled and smiled as she normally does at 8am. I was flooded with emotion. Tears streaming down...
What? You wanted to see more pictures of my girl on her birthday? OK. :D Just in case you aren’t following me on Facebook & missed it, those little leggings are a super easy DIY project. Once Caroline started crawling, she got some nasty rug-burns from my less than stellar carpeting. I thought surely there...
I feel like it is Christmas Eve. I have the biggest surprise/gift/blessing of my life coming right around the corner and I am so full of nervous excitement that I don’t know what to do with myself. As I was driving home from Target today it just hit me like a ton of bricks…the tears started...
If I have learned anything after diving into the world of great design, I have learned that you cant just look at an item for what it is, you’ve got to look at it for what it can be! As I have said before, I am all about customizing ordinary items and making them YOURS....
My painting project from last week finally made its way from my memory card to photoshop to my blog. Whew! I thought I would post a few more pictures of the final product. I really enjoyed doing it & am pleased with the results. Finally, art that looks just how i wanted it to look!...
I studied art in college. Mostly of the painting variety and haven’t picked up a paint brush in five years. I used to LOVE it. I took such comfort in it and it has been missing in my life. My favorite memory of college were my senior year tuesday/thursday’s. I had the best yoga classe,...
Doing a painting project soon??? I have a time saver for you! I (with the help of my family) just finished painting all but two rooms in our house and after 13 gallons of paint, we know the secret to straight lines! Forget that blue 3M painters tape, go green and get FROG TAPE the...
Hope you like it! Let me tell you, a designer is a designer’s worst client. I knew what I wanted, but didn’t have the skill set to create it myself. I enlisted Marina for the job and I am sure she didn’t quite know what she was in for! My initial detailed plan was created...
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.
