Soulful Stories of Home

Publisher's summary

Erin Napier, designer, host of HGTV’s Home Town, and author of Make Something Good Today, returns with a gorgeously illustrated and one-of-a-kind celebration of the homes we live in and love.

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 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.

From Erin Napier, coauthor with her husband, Ben, of their memoir Make Something Good Today, comes a collection of essays walking us through every room in her home, telling the story of a family’s life, of the days that made their home the place she longs for when she’s away.

We learn about when they became the new owners of Erin’s dream house from childhood in downtown Laurel, Mississippi, and explore the beautiful homes of family, friends, and projects past in photographs.

With essays that evoke her Southern home, photos of the beautifully imperfect, lived-in spaces of her family and friends, and prompts for us to document our own homemade memories, Heirloom Rooms feels like walking through the front door of the collected and loved-in houses Erin and Ben are known for revitalizing in HGTV’s #1 hit series, Home Town.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Great book

I loved this book and the way Erin writes and tells a story. I’m glad she reads it herself. Her other book, the one that they wrote together (Make Something Good Today) is one of my favorite audiobooks!

Loved it!!!!

I truly enjoyed this audible voice recording/book!!!! I loved the personal stories and how they told just enough, yet not take away from certain aspects of their private experiences. I loved how in detail they explained their personal experience with their home ownership as well as the personal experiences of those featured on Hometown. I really enjoyed it and can’t wait until they come out with a new publication.

Inspired me to love my home and cherish those in it.

Thank you for putting this out into the world. It's honest and full of the little pieces of life that are truly magical.

This was special, a peek into her life.

I loved her connection to your family and home. I loved that she shared it as it is not the “picture perfect” version of.

Great Memories!

I loved how Erin ushered us into her life. Sharing past and present feelings that allowed us to remember and connect with our own lives. Thank you!

There’s no place like home♥️

Y’all this book is like waking up at grandmama’s house on Saturday morning, your most favorite childhood smell and the very first time you tasted honeysuckle picked fresh off the vine all rolled into one heartwarming book! You will fall in love with home all over again!🏡
Read it! Listen to it! Love it! ♥️
It’s the perfect fall book! 🍁🍂🍁🍂

This book encourages me to look at my life through new eyes!

I loved the story about each room of her house and the beautiful way she lovingly tells the story!

Heartfelt

I loved listening to Erin review every space of her home and what she loves in detail about them. I can vividly recall the same details about my grandparents home. Now that I am in that season of life, I want to create that same environment for my grands. I’ll be drawing inspiration from this book and the questionnaire.

Beautiful Candid Shot of “Home”

This book is precious and important, and there’s nothing like hearing it in the author’s own voice.

Beyond perfect

Erin is such a beautiful writer and knows exactly how to tug on your heart. Just finished the book and about to start it over again.
