Becoming Real: The Stuff Hero Project



Sometimes we love our things so much that we imagine they are real. Sometimes we imagine that, like the Velveteen Rabbit, our things yearn for life.
At some point we part ways with even our most loved belongings. We hope that these things will continue to be appreciated and cared for.
As a Stuff Hero I will seek out these objects, adrift in the world of thrift stores, flea markets, and yard sales and endeavor to grant them continued life.
