I totally forgot that this is possible with the shape-outside CSS property. As Kerry Smyth shows in this demo, we can use that property twice to force text to float around two different paths, giving us shape on both sides (in this case, a circle). It’s neat that browser tools have come so far as to give us this really nice visual representation as we build it, too:
As Kerry mentions in this post, I’m excited for shape-inside which will let us create a shape to wrap the content within an element more naturally, too.
