wastless



my granny.
she saves everything.
more than everything, acctually.
anything, and everything.
in my opinion, it's one of her most precious and endearing qualities.
it shows who she is and where she has been.
her "waste not, want not" attitude is one that we could all adopt a little more.

i couldn't help but snap away as i perused her shelves of nick-nacks and random collections.
there is something quite captivating amongst the shelving units, piled high with her piles of piles.
there is a method to her maddness:
"don't throw anything away. you might just need it someday."

this is the henricks way.
i might as well just embrace it :)

here is what i captured on just one wall of her garage.

  1. i love the way your mind works and the way your eyes see things that anyone else would otherwise miss. it inspires me, and i am sad that i missed the opportunity to photograph my grandmothers house like that this past trip. next time i suppose :)
