What is cottagecore?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Cottagecore, also known as farmcore, seeks to be removed from the pressures and distractions of technology, television and fast pace processes. Inspired by western agricultural life, it celebrates farm life and all that is rural. It seeks to practice simplicity and sustainability, celebrating nature and activities that satisfy by doing, such as baking, gardening, knitting and assorted crafts. Cottagecore fans like to thrift shop, grow their own vegetables and collect eggs from their own coops. There\u2019s a love of sustainable products and practices, as well as handmade products. Cottagecore combines the charm of English countryside with a love of farm life.<\/p>\n\n\n

While the cottagecore ideal emerged as early as 2017, it widened its reach substantially as it was circulated on popular social media sites like Tik Tok, Instagram and Tumblr (Yes, it is ironic that its growth was propelled by the practices it avoids.) Cottagecore\u2019s growth was spurred by the pandemic, as people were stuck inside and looking for ways to comfort themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cottagecore Aesthetic<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The cottagecore aesthetic is going after a cozy look and feel. Nature and natural elements are main focuses, and they are used to decorate with. Things like houseplants, fresh or dried flowers, neutral colors and warm tones all work for cottagecore. The look and feel of European countrysides are celebrated here, along with an influence of romanticism that looks to combine nature, nostalgia and the use of the senses. The farmhouse look goes hand-in-hand with cottagecore, displaying a warm, homey look and feel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cottagecore lets you mix and match items too. Things like patchwork quilts and tea cups displayed on hooks in hutches<\/a> don\u2019t have to be matchy matchy by any means.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
