50 Cottagecore Decor Ideas 🌸

[@dantedressage]

I was born in the 60's, raised in the 70's, partied in the 80's and settled down in the 90's. I love the feel, nostalgia and resurgence of what they now call "Cottagecore" but I'm not going to lie.... it hurt a little when you said "I THINK it's called an afghan blanket" - ouch. I'm getting so old! lol

[@barbarawinslow6895]

😂 same! I'm 57 and giggle when young people don't know what things are called that we grew up with.

[@mariacabrera2850]

I have the Afghan blanket my mom made when she was pregnant with me 56 years ago. It's proudly displayed in my living room🖤

[@LorriWyndham]

57 here… patchwork blanket? Oh honey it’s a quilt.

[@teresastubblefield262]

And those afghans were crocheted -- not knitted...I feel so old...

[@vaderladyl]

Meh.. I never feel old. I feel proud of having lived this long and have so much life experience to see other generations discovering what I already experienced. It is satisfying.

[@wendyhoadley9236]

I feel a bit like I did in the 90’s when ‘Shabby Chic’ became a thing and my home decor became trendy! Thirty years later it’s happening again. Always a nice decade when my four-poster bed frame is a desirable item once more.

[@vaderladyl]

I think this is a lifestyle rather than an aesthetic, that is why it has staying power.

[@Sinthecity]

I fully believe in cottagecore for spring/summer and dark academia for fall winter so this is perfect

[@1005corvuscorax]

I grew up in the '70s and '80s. Yep, I'm ancient 😆 My parents weren't cottage core. However, accordion peg wall-hangers, wall shelves with hooks, doilies, cafe curtains in the kitchen, copper "display pans" and molds hanging on the walls in the kitchen, philodendron (everywhere), afghan blankets (everywhere), and baskets (for everything), were things I grew up with in every apartment and house we lived in. I'm not really into cottage core, but thank you for the nostalgia :)

[@alessandramedea4319]

I'm an '80s child and I can confirm.

[@vaderladyl]

Sounds like what we called Rustic Country back then. Cottage is just Country relabeled.

[@justlanchen]

100%

[@Yep6803]

As european, I do live in Pre Alpi, most of this is our traditional style! :-) Maybe my is more closer to the "tyrol" one? 🫡

[@ayanabeads1614]

Country and cottage decoration has been a thing since the 80s. I grew up with my Mom’s country decor magazines and books, the various style were Southern, Vintage, Cottage, French, Victorian, Nautical, and even Western. There are magazine publications for all the above. I love the coziness, the grounded feeling. Except dried flowers, they eventually fall apart or gather dust and can’t be easily cleaned.

[@anilori262]

❤ Nostalgia for me. I grew up with this as a British Subject. I've introduced my granddaughters to the heirloom pieces that I inherited. I incorporate lace, crochet, tatting, gingham, any old but beautiful thing into my decor. For years I had no one in my circle who appreciated this style. It's wonderful to see young people enjoying and appreciating the beauty, craftsmanship and sheer talent.

[@Financiallyfreeauthor]

I’m only 42 but I’m an old lady at heart and always have been. I’ve crocheted my own lace doilies for all over the house

[@Irelynspets]

I love cottage core because it blinds a lot of my favorite things together like nature animals outdoors and old looking I l just hope I can make my bedroom look like this one day! 🧊🪶🦋🌸🍃🍂🍄🪵

[@fireflythinking1290]

Thank you for all the inspiration... The wisteria on the ceiling is speaking to my soul... Now I want fake flowers in my bedroom 🍀

[@KemiZaki]

I love this kind of content. You're always so well informed and the ideas you put together are so inspiring. Also, loving your clothes. Thank you for the video! 💕

[@tammiegleaves4646]

Grandmacore is now also a big trnd, and i love it because i started with it and almost 50 years later, i still have it.

[@Financiallyfreeauthor]

I’ve done more than half of these lol. But the bedsheet as wall paper is amazing. Never thought of that!

[@Marie-lf8ut]

Been done for decades. First I saw it was in the 60's but it's older than that

[@Botanicbooknest]

I was so happy to see that I my home already has a lot of the items you mentioned! I wasn't sure that my cottage core loving heart showed in my space but now I know that it must 🥰 I also got a lot of new ideas that I can't wait to get started on. Thank you so much 💕 btw I love the corset you're wearing!

[@shockmike00]

Listen I'm not interested in interior design at all, but you are so entertaining that I watch anyway. You're absolutely gorgeous, seems like you have a great personality, and your passion for this is infectious. All that adds up to a combination that I love watching even though I wouldn't really be interested otherwise. Wish you the best of luck as your channel grows, I'll keep on watching!

[@justlanchen]

Omg thank you. 🥹 that is so kind of you to say 😭😭😭😭 thanks for watching even though it’s not your thing. That’s means so much

[@christiana_mandalynn]

Oooh this is perfect timing! I have been thinking about the under-the-stairs corner and deep nook that we have turned into a mini-play area for our young children. I want to turn it into a Beatrix Potter / Brambly Hedge themed space, with little Cottagecore elements. I actually have a sheer hanging canopy that I never used for my daughter’s room, and I could totally hang it in the corner but never would have thought of it, if you hadn’t mentioned it. We have some very old vintage books, little bird statues, some Calico Critters, and my vintage stuffed animal bunnies that I am thinking about putting on the bookshelf for the reading nook. Thank you for these ideas!! A little toddler tea set would be perfect too for the Cottagecore themed “under the stairs” nook. 🥰

[@marianneblack6503]

I adore all of this. I love my DA room but for spring and summer time I'm always so tempted to make it cottage core! My dream would be to have a cottage core kitchen but I can't right now...thank you for making me dream! ❤ (Also your corset and blouse...woaw!!)

[@Yep6803]

I love that cottagecore is based on my home town culture! ❤

[@brittanyvargas4019]

Love these tips and this style! Gorgeous!

[@mairdior]

Loved this video! Ascetically pleasing with beautiful ideas. Thank you!

[@pandaevenstar]

Love this! We’re just setting up house for the first time and we have a very DA/Witchcore vibe. Before your videos, I didn’t really know what our style was called - we just knew that we decided to keep our black crochet Halloween tablecloth out all year and that we loved mixing in my grandmother’s antique furniture lol. I wanted something a little more inviting and cozy for the kitchen and I think cottagecore is what I’ve been looking for! Thanks for the help!

[@sekaihatsu]

This is a great refresher list for me. Crafter note: Afghan, yes. Knit blankets, yes. However, the pictures you showed were crochet. 😊

[@justlanchen]

From what I’ve read the afghan blankets can be knitted or crocheted, so I think it works 🥰🫶

[@elizabethhammond1348]

I love this video. I love the fact that you talk us through what you are doing. ❤

[@jennyblankenship1419]

The blankets you showed are crocheted. 😊 You can find them in thrift stores all the time - Along with the doilies that are crocheted. I love them ❤️ As someone who crochets I can appreciate the time and effort that goes into making them. I use crocheted table cloths as curtains.

[@cealarkin5361]

I’m so glad I found your channel. You have some of the most unique content. Keep up the great work! 😊✌🏼

[@passingthru4383]

Ok I have the decorating skills of a tree stump, so besides like ren fair, etc, I wouldnt often watch these type of vids. But they are oddly relaxing to me and hearing you talk I kind of passively learn some new things. I look forward to your vids, Im online but I feel like im unhooked. So tyvm, L. ✌

Love 💗 all your ideas, but there is one thing that I feel you felt out, and that is small porcelain figurines couples dressed in Victorian outfits or other types, like collections of small hunting dogs. Anyway you have a great personality very good taste and I’m sure you’re going to do very well. You should show your home and the way you have it decorated. Best of luck .

[@sweetstufff]

Great video! I love how you put lots of pictures to show us different options! I love your outfit! Where did you get it from? Thanks.

[@justlanchen]

thank you!! I got the peasant top from forever 21 a long time ago and the bodice is by alivila y

[@Littlepickle313]

Would you perhaps be interested in doing one of these for like medieval fantasy? 👉👈 I would absolutely love that ❤

[@liapotter4369]

oh also, how did that dark academia book you were writing go? Cuz if you publish it I will be the first one to buy it, I swear.

[@justlanchen]

I finished the beginning and end but I didn’t know how to fill the middle entirely without making it sound mundane 🙃 I actually started looking into some writing classes to help complete it. I haven’t given up yet!

[@liapotter4369]

@@justlanchen My book that I'm writing, I thought up something for it, and it's like it's a reboot! I think I found the key. And for the middle of your book, maybe try and put in some plot twists, maybe a betrayal? Does your book have any murders or people missing? Stuff that you could make clues about?

[@paulamcquade488]

You mentioned people criticizing how you say curtains in subsequent videos. I say it the same way and I’m from North Dakota. The t doesn’t need to be so pronounced. Just be you. 🤣❤️

[@DylanYzewyn]

Hi 👋

[@justlanchen]

hi!!!

WHY is everyone suddenly dropping the "t" sound out of our words?? Here, she says "cur--ans", not "curtains". I've heard many pronounce "important" as "impor--ant". What is going on?

[@icebaguette5618]

Language always evolves

@@icebaguette5618 I've come to the realization that they are picking up the way the English speak. The English drop the "t" sound. The English always seem like they just can't be bothered to pronounce the entire word--they've got to drop the end or the middle, or something.

[@nlbhaduri]

Not every English dialect drops the ‘t’. Listen to the King speak. I guarantee you he doesn’t say ‘cur-ann’.

[@JesusLovesyou..1John3.6]

I like your princess outfit 😊 by the way, Jesus Loves you, it’s relationship not religion He is the Greatest Father and the Bestest Friend, you should get to know Him 😊❤

Who is going to dust all this stuff every day? You're going to smother in all these various dusty materials, & sneeze a lot. I don't think many men like this style either.

[@LaylaTitus]

Does anyone feel obligated to call out the fact those blankets are crocheted? No offense but as a crocheter it makes me feel like I need to call it out, lol. Love this vid tho!

[@nicolaw5940]

[@Annie-qu9ik]

[@susanv7415]

You didn't invent the aesthetic! You just named it....poorly frankly. It was called Shabby Chic in the 90s. It was called Cottage before that. Simple English country. If you have to Google lens these items....doilies, afghans......oh just stop.

[@jennifernordlund2691]

She didn't make up this name. Rude.

[@justlanchen]

Huh?

[@justlanchen]

Yea I’m confused

[@Marie-lf8ut]

A snarky bit...I'm 75, and English Cottage has been my lifestyle since I was born, and my family's before that. If I put on this channel and someone corrected me, it would be a bit discerning. There is Italian, French, English, Irish, Swedish, and so many more cottage styles. And none are new.
