A few months ago I had 11 unfinished projects on my list and weighing on my creative mind. (This doesn't include projects from years ago like Gibson's pop warner football season/an album about my jobs/Gibson's school years mini album that I resigned as unfinished long ago). Today I have 2 and we're gonna talk about how I got there and how you can get there too!

Minimalism is something I've been working through for about a year now. Don't expect me to have a house with 2 pieces of furniture and no color. This girl needs her vintage phones, practical areas, and colorful spaces. I know it means different things to different people and for me it means keeping up with less stuff.
