| Summary: |
"Our homes are more than an assemblage of bricks and glass, wood and nails. They are the keepers of our childhood memories, our milestones and heartaches. They live and breathe and evolve as we do. As a family grows and eventually retracts, a home can change hands and begin again. We are the chapters in the book of a house. They carry on after we are gone, setting the stage for another story, a new life, new memories. One of Erin's favorite houses was her grandmother's. As she got older, and bought a home of her own, and then a few more as she and her husband, Ben, launched a wildly successful business and television show, she realized she didn't have any photographs of the home, itself. She had plenty of memories, but no pictures. Not the beautiful photos that fill the design books, but the snapshots of the every day life that happened in each room. HEIRLOOM ROOMS sets out to change that. Alongside Erin's beautiful recollections and photography of each room in a house are stories and snapshots of her friend's lives, as they live them, in the houses they call home. Imperfect, real, a little messy, but happy and full of family, and of life, encouraging each reader to appreciate the home they have, and all the things it holds"-- |
