I haven’t yet decided if nurseries are actually for the baby. I kind of think they are mostly for the mama. She saw four walls and had a vision. A vision full of hopes and little moments, of snuggles and kisses. This is the place where her dreams come true…the dream of becoming a mother....
Working with my hands is food for my soul. I often get asked how I get so much done & the truth is, you should really be worried about me if I don’t have five zillion projects lined up and in progress. I just need to make stuff to function. There is something about the...
As I get older I have come to really define my taste. Clothes. Decor. Art. I know what I like and I know why. What I like has a lightness about it. Not too serious. A little sparkly. Cozy but dressed up. Warm but deliberate. Hints of turquoise. And a little bit of light whimsy....
Oh, where to begin. Sweet Irma. Irma is the designer behind Gifts Define & our paths crossed three years ago as I was planning caroline’s nursery. I found her in an etsy search & knew instantly that her work had a place in my home. I have never been one to decorate out of a...
FINALLY. You don’t think I have *just* been caring for a newborn & toddler, do you? Well. Mostly I have, but I have been able to sneak in a few projects here & there. Finding the time to blog them is a whole different story… You’ll be seeing more instagram pictures on here than I’d...
This is super fun–today I am joining a group of lovely & talented bloggers/photographers in a month long series called Decorating with Portraits over on the cute blog of Kristen Duke Photography! Over the next several weeks you’ll find creative ideas galore–as there is quite a line-up of inspiring women ready to share their tips...
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...
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.
