Sold!
This piece sold almost as soon as I shared it, and if Iām being truthful, Iām a little sad to see it go.
I made this during a time of serious emotional distress. I was trying to work through things I didnāt quite have words for, so I did what I know how to do: I made something.
I took an old frame that had been sitting forgotten for years and gave it another life. I painted it, filled it with flowers, and chose words that I desperately needed to believe myself:
Even here, something beautiful can begin.
And now I have to let it go.
Maybe thatās part of the lesson too.
We donāt get to hold onto everything that helps us through a difficult season. Sometimes we create something, love it, learn from it, and then release it so it can become part of someone elseās story.
Thereās something beautifully bittersweet about knowing that a piece created from one of my hardest moments will now hang in someone elseās home.
I think life asks us to do this more often than we realize.
Make something beautiful from where you are.
Love it while itās yours.
And when the time comes, let it go.
Love, Laura
