Became someone. The version of me who already has enough of it. Same shelf, different appetite.

Every object here is a still from that entry's own footage.

01

The prettiest shelf in my house is the one with space left on it.

02

There are four things on it. All four get used in a normal week.

03

And there's enough room to actually see each one instead of scanning past a wall of stuff.

04

The gap is the design. I didn't buy it. I just stopped filling it.

The rest of the shelf

13 entries are the shelf. This is 6. Every object here is a still from that entry's own footage.
