I don’t usually get up on a soap box, but with all this hoopla about Black Friday starting ON Thanksgiving this year, I’m getting increasingly irritated. & I feel like the holidays are losing their real meaning. I suppose I’ll credit this shift in my thinking to motherhood too–as I used to be a major...
I didn’t really plan ahead on this one. I should have taken some pictures of the final product last year–with my good camera–I promise to take some this year! BUT…I have some iphone snaps! I’ll post them below. We’ll also flash back a couple of years. I’m really bothered by the images I am going...

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.
