Originality.

I have really been limiting my blog reading lately. Not only does it take a ton of time out of the day, but it is easy to get intimidated and start the horrific mode of being a copycat. I want to be as original as possible and that isn’t easy if you lean on others images instead of using your own brain to be creative.

One blog that I absolutely adore (and think you will too) is Bark, by Erin Vey. She is a phenomenally talented Dog Photographer and is such an inspiration. One of her recent blogs pointed me towards these words and they are printed & hanging in front of me on my desk. They serve as a daily reminder of so many things I find important.

Her post today was so original that I watched it over and over and over and thought you might enjoy it too. Thanks for sharing Erin!

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 Creative where 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 now 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.
