They have no use for your song
You're dead, you're dead, you're dead
You're dead and out of this world" -Norma Tanega

I have a purple one too!

But I was worried that the main bulk of people would think it was a little weird ( I like weird)

Left (Midnight) or right (Verdure)?

I based this new wallpaper pattern off of antique tapestries and secret gardens.

If you're in the Boston/New England area, I highly recommend the Rachel Ruysch exhibition going on at the Museum of Fine Arts.

It feels like magic, and also has specimens from @harvard alongside her work.
