Project 52 | FOUR

Metadata: f/2.8, 1/250, ISO 250 ••• This just makes me smile. We’ve been on a lot of coffee/hot chocolate dates lately. We bring books & read. We chit chat. We especially love the sale book cart parked in the Starbucks at B&N. Tractors & bugs are the topics of choice. Always. Even cry baby, her...

DIY Rag Wreath…to conquer the boredom.

My daughter has decided her meals need to take foooooooorevvvvvvvvvverrrrrrr to consume. & I am bored. Problem is…if I get up from the table, she just stops eating & resumes her much more fun than eating activity. ::sigh:: So I have felt like a prisoner at the kitchen table for nearly three hours a day…sitting…watching…barking...

WHEN.

Are you taking maternity leave? You better take maternity leave. But still take pictures! & share them! We want to see the baby!!! Ahh. Welcome to my life. I have never been a gal who can’t say “no.” I pretty much say “no” more than I say “yes” (a wonderful skill I have already passed...

Project 52 | THREE

  Metadata: f/2.8, 1/13, ISO 6400 ••• I often get asked how I “do it all.” & the truth is…I don’t. I make choices. I let go of what doesn’t matter to me & cling tight to what does. But one thing that really affects my productivity is my schedule. I can pretty comfortably survive...

DIY Barn Doors (on a budget!)

I don’t know about you, but the one thing pinterest totally helped me fall in love with was the idea of interior barn doors. They kept popping up every time I logged on & I was so inspired. There were all kinds, all price ranges. But they were functional and beautiful & I had just...

FIFTEEN. | styleberryINSPIRE

Today marks the start of the fifteenth year that my hubby & I have been together. I think that is rad. I am so lucky to have such a wonderful man to share this life with. He is exactly the kind of father I always dreamed my kids would have. I count my blessings daily....

Project 52 | TWO

Metadata: f/2.8, 1/160, ISO 640 — f/2.8, 1/160, ISO 800 ••• Sneak peek at the very unfinished nursery! It’s coming to life & I love it more than words can even express. It’s so bright & airy & serene. I can’t wait to spend more time in there. Let the sewing commence…(you can see my...

DIY No Sew Burlap Bedskirt

So…I have a sewing machine. But I’ll find any way NOT to use it. I just do not love to sew! I sure wish I did…but my glue gun is my go-to gadget! It’s fast…it’s efficient…it’s low maintenance. Just how I like things. The only problem? You can’t really wash what you glue. But who...

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.
