    The Curated Nest Trailer

    Coming Autumn 2025! The Curated Nest Podcast — the place where creativity, colour, and home come together. I’m Heather Moore, a printmaker and lifelong lover of joyful, expressive living spaces. I believe our homes are more than walls and furniture - they’re nests we curate, fill with meaning, and share with the people we love. Each week, I’ll be sitting down with creative business owners, artists, and makers to uncover the stories behind their spaces: their favourite rooms and objects, the colours and art that inspire them, and the dreams they hold for their perfect home. Think cosy reading corners, bold gallery walls, treasured heirlooms, and those small details that make a house truly feel like home. If you’re someone who loves entertaining, surrounding yourself with beauty, and collecting pieces that spark conversation, you’ll feel right at home here. So pour yourself a glass of something lovely, get comfortable, and join me as we step inside the homes — and imaginations — of inspiring creatives. This is The Curated Nest Podcast.
