The Things That Make a Home
About This Conversation
What turns a house into your house?
Tim and Denise look around their home and talk about the things that have gathered there over time—a painting from Tim's grandparents, an old woodworking tool, Granny's typewriter, glassybabys tied to particular moments, books in nearly every room, and spaces designed for people to gather, make things, or simply be.
Along the way, they realize the things that matter most aren't really about the things at all.
They're about the stories they hold—and the life a home makes room for.
