Meet Your Host
Hi! I'm Allison, host of The Art of Home Podcast. I am a wife to Nate, mom to 4 adult children and Granny to two. I have been a full-time homemaker since 1992. I love to read, cook, sing, thrift, and create beautiful things for my home or simply for the joy of creating.
​
I started The Art of Home Podcast in 2021 with a desire to encourage homemakers by highlighting the unique stories of other homemakers; their trials, triumphs, failures and successes. Connecting with other homemakers to learn from and encourage one another is crucial to our success in this occupation.
Our Mission
The Art of Home exists to provide encouragement and inspiration for women to practice the occupation of homemaking as an art with confidence, skill, joy and creativity to the glory of God.
​
Through our podcast and other resources we desire to elevate the work of the home in the eyes of the homemaker and of the culture.
​
Homemaking practiced as an art exchanges drudgery for dignity and brings beauty and great value to the ordinary tasks of life.

"Homemaking" by JR Miller Audiobook & Study Guide
First published in 1882, the Rev. Miller's classic book covers many subjects that are invaluable to the homemaker. We've created a study guide to help you reflect on his teachings and apply them in your own homemaking. The guide is broken up into 5 weeks, however, you can study at your own pace. The audio is available in 5 episodes on the podcast.
​
Advent Study Guide
A simple daily devotional to help you focus on the themes of Advent; hope, peace, joy and love. Each daily devotion includes a truth about the weekly theme, scripture to support that truth and a suggested song. The guide has instructions at the beginning to help you make the most of this resource.
