A moving and inspirational memoir from the beloved maverick
carpenter on HGTV's smash hit Fixer Upper that shows how to turn
your hobbies and craft into a career and celebrates the power of
meaningful work. Now known to the countless fans of Fixer Upper as
Chip and Joanna Gaines's go-to table maker and acclaimed artisan,
Clint Harp hasn't always lived the DIY dream we see on the show.
Ten years ago, he was dutifully working at a sales job that, while
it provided security for his family, did nothing to help him
achieve his unfulfilled dreams of building furniture. With the
support of his wife, the encouragement of a mentor, and a life full
of lessons, he finally took the leap, quitting his job and setting
out on the quest to become a carpenter. Without formal training,
financing, workspace, or customers, the Harps were quickly on the
edge of financial collapse. Then Clint met Chip Gaines at a gas
station--a chance encounter that marked the next chapter on a wild
ride Clint could never have imagined possible. Spanning Clint's
remarkable journey--from a childhood learning carpentry and hard
work at his grandfather's knee, through his struggles to balance
pursuing his dreams with supporting his family, to his partnership
with Chip and Joanna Gaines and the many adventures and
misadventures of filming Fixer Upper--Handcrafted is part memoir
and part manual for dreamers of all backgrounds. "From the floor of
his first shop to the foundations of Habitat for Humanity houses,
to building furniture for the world to see, Clint Harp is living a
handcrafted life" (President Jimmy Carter).
