With us spending more time at home than ever in the past 18 months (thanks COVID!) people have retreated to activities and trends that that pay homage to simpler times like baking and crocheting. This is has let to a new trend in home décor and interior design. Cottagecore.
Cottagecore is an idealistic and whimsical nod to the modern rural fantasy. The look draws inspiration from the countryside—think botanical motifs, florals, and natural materials such as wool and linen.
Here’s our top three tips on how to incorporate this trend that celebrates the great outdoors and practical living.
1. Buy Vintage Furniture
The team here at BDI are big fans of upcycling and restoring furniture. Our recent article goes into more detail here but when searching for preloved goods. Online Auction sites and community sites can be a treasure trove.
If you already have a statement piece, you’d love to update but aren’t sure where to start then speak to us. We could look at recovering a statement chair or designed some cushions for you to work into your overall interior design project.
2. Set The Table
Make your kitchen table the focal point of your kitchen and dress it to suit. Think Linen tablecloths and napkins with napkin rings. Cute mason jars with homemade jams and spreads or even a glass vase with some handpicked flowers.
This voyage glass vase provides instant ambience to your kitchen and makes a great centre piece when entertaining.
3. Bring The Outside In
Introduce warm, organic textures to your home with natural wood flooring and furniture. Natural materials and earth tones are an easy way to make your home look beautiful and connected to the outdoors.
This earthy and quirky trinket box has been hand crafted and made from sustainable mango wood, with a swirling grain that contributes to its earthy appeal. If green is your thing then add plants to bring the great outdoors into your home, Our Fiori plant is a practical way to display greenery all year.
We hope this article has inspired you to embrace the cottagecore trend and update your home interiors. If so we’d love to see your photos. Please tag us on Facebook or instagram.
