Big Magic. Have you read it? If you haven’t, run. Buy it. I made the mistake of waiting for it to arrive at the library and one chapter from the end, I amazon prime’d it so I could remove the thirty sticky notes from the library book and switch it to permanent underlines in my...
Are you here? Or is it just me? I don’t know what it is. But I am stuck. I can’t move. I can’t make. I can’t even start. It’s scary and there is no plan and I have no idea where to begin. I don’t know where I am going. There is so much I want...
You know, every time I log on to Facebook I’m reminded of exactly why I very intentionally have signed off. It’s just not the healthiest place for me to be. It serves its purpose of staying connected and picture sharing with loved ones far away, but is best kept as a very limited part of...
School notices are coming in the mail and it’s hard to believe that summer is winding down (wahh!!) but it is! Time for a gut check. Can you put your phone down more & play with your kids? We’ve only got a few more weeks. I’m up for the challenge. Are you with me? I...
I’ve been going to church. This may not sound like a big deal. But it’s a big deal to me. I first wrote about my faith back when I shared the news about Everett. He is my moment. He is my sign. He is my blessing. Everything about him has brought me to where I...
Metadata: f/2.8, 1/125, ISO 6400 ••• Gone are the five hour stretches of sleep. We are back to four. If I am lucky. & I am tired. I can’t put my baby down when I am home. He won’t sleep longer than 45 minutes during the day. He wants to eat nonstop. He cries &...
Today I am helping celebrate my eighth wedding anniversary by sharing some fun, marital rut busters over on The Creative Mama. I hope you’ll join me: Happy Wife, Happy Life. :) Gosh, it’s been a quick eight years. This [sort of] still feels like yesterday! (& yes, yes that is me. I was a blonde...
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...
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.
