It’s not just junk. I have a way now to tell my son the stories behind everything — and why I kept it.
Carol, 73

Some heirlooms are stories.

“Your Great Grandma insisted that Grandma learn to make ‘her enchiladas’ before she could marry Grandpa!”

One day, someone will decide what to keep.

A ring will look like jewelry.

A photo will look like a stranger.

Unless the story is preserved.

Because some stories can’t wait.

We built MyHeirlooms to preserve our family’s stories. Now we’d like to help you preserve yours.
