Cottagecore – everything you need to know
From clothing to home décor, cottagecore has captured the hearts of us all in 2023! It’s one of the most popular trends you’ll see on socials at the moment, but are you wondering what cottagecore is really all about and how can you incorporate it into your own home? Let us help!
The pandemic realigned our focus with what’s important to us and many found a deep longing for simpler times and home décor that really speaks to who we are – hence the cottagecore trend was born! Cottagecore romanticises a back-to-nature concept centered around wholesome pastimes, handmade crafts, dainty florals and traditional ways. It is an escapism from a world filled with heavy technology influence and captures the fantasy of running away to a cottage in a meadow of flowers without needing to leave our actual reality.
If you’re looking to add elements of this trend to your home, here are some characteristics to look for when choosing your décor.
- Embrace rustic furniture
- Focus on tactile materials
- Add an element of cosy
- Focus on sustainability
- Favour handcrafted or handcrafted look pieces
- Embrace nature by bringing the outside in with flowers and other natural elements
