About the Makers

Tim and Jenn Ward, the founders and makers of House of Wards, call Franklin, TN their home.

Tim has lived in Nashville since 1989 and calls woodworking his passion. He started expanding his craft after the woodworking projects became custom requests from friends and relatives.  Jenn is a 4th Generation Nashvillian and started making candles to add to her personal collection.  As the woodworking side of the business began to expand, Jenn's candles and small curated gifts seemed like the perfect extension of the House of Wards brand.  Now you will find these handcrafted goods in homes and retailers across the US, from New York to right here in Franklin, TN. 

Tim and Jenn believe in the value of shopping small, supporting local and furthering the maker community.
