Will require framing under glass. We can assist with this for an additional fee if you are in Brisbane.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e A wild protea fever dream. This one is all pinks and greens that should always been seen together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eI bought this paper in 2020… from a hospital bed. I was having bizarre dizzy spells and everything felt a bit “is this the end?” dramatic.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eI coped by panic‑ordering an entire art store so it’d all be waiting for me when I got home. Priorities.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e2020 then turned into a year of ridiculous plot twists: growing a business to survive my little family’s giant medical bills, four hours of therapy a week with my legally blind one‑year‑old, juggling epilepsy and cancer specialists for my husband (plus his second knee surgery, because why stop at one), keeping up with my turbo‑charged four‑year‑old, surviving a pandemic, and (oh, that’s right!) being pregnant with number three while experiencing the kind of all‑day sickness that should qualify as an Olympic sport.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eA buffet of chaos.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e(No wonder my dad, to this day, claims the collective noun for a company of Devines is a catastrophe.

Given all that, it’s honestly a miracle this gorgeous paper was forgotten on a shelf rather than used to clean up spew, as gift wrap for a toddler gift, or for origami practice on a quiet Covid afternoon. I’m impressed it didn’t file for abandonment.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eAnd that hospital trip with no answers?
