    Keep it Simple

    “I make myself rich by making my wants few.” -Henry David Thoreau I thought I’d return to something minimalistic. Isn’t it soothing? I’m not sure where I found the reference photo (probably Instagram), but there was a man sitting at a table in front of that cute little structure and I’ve erased his existence. It’s…
