Story 72: The Craftsman’s Hands
Maria’s gardens catch the attention of a craftsman named Henry, who has spent his life creating furniture that blends beauty with functionality. Henry believes that craftsmanship is an art form, but after seeing the beauty in Maria’s gardens, he begins to see that his work can be more than just furniture—it can be a space for connection. Henry begins crafting benches, tables, and chairs for community spaces, creating places where people can sit, talk, and share. The bead he receives represents the love and care that goes into each piece he creates.
