Natural Wood for that Cottagecore Feel
Cottagecore romanticizes cozy, rural life, and one of the quickest ways to incorporate that vibe is by focusing on incorporating natural materials like wood into your home. Plants are essential to your mental health, and even brief exposure to nature can improve your mood. Incorporating wooden pieces into your home means that, even in a busy city center, you still have the touch and feel of a cottagecore life in your space.

Let the (Mostly Natural) Light In
As Lana Del Rey is so fond of saying, you gotta let that light into your home. Our circadian rhythm is based on the rising and setting of the sun, and the harsh, artificial light you find in office buildings and rooms without windows can mess with your mood, your sleep, and even your productivity. Incorporating natural light into your home realigns your space with the values cottagecore espouses, recentering you in the natural world.
When the sun sets and you still need to see, steer away from bright blue lights. Warm, orange toned lighting mimics the rising and setting of the sun, calming your mind and preparing you for a restful sleep. What better way to prepare for bed than with a traditional cottagecore hobby like knitting, baking, or sewing, basking in the warm glow of an orange lamp?

Long-lasting Materials for a Sutainable Cottage
As people truly invested in cottagecore already know, it's not just an aesthetic: it's a lifestyle. Prioritizing slow living includes slowing down consumption, and one of the easiest solutions for a cottagecore home is to emphasize sustainable materials to so you won't have to buy new as often. Fabrics like cotton and linen keep you comfortable, but are also natural, keeping your space sustainable.
The extra long staple cotton that Ever Lasting uses in its fabric is even more beneficial, as it removes moisture quicker than other fabrics, keeping your sheets softer for longer. Incorporating cottagecore into your life doesn't necessarily mean purchasing a lot now, but instead entails a slow, steady journey towards sustainability.
