Thank you for doing a cottage core video. If you do room makeovers please share!!

[@I-JunKim]

Great video! The photos you were yousing were really pretty🥰And could create this cottagecore effect with white funiture? Because I alredy have white furniture and would really like these astetics in my room🤗

[@gemmabxx]

You definitely could with white furniture. I have quite a lot of white furniture in my own room after I upgraded recently which I will be making videos on as soon as my new camera arrives😊 I would suggest going thrifting/shopping for country-themed items that reflect the cottagecore aesthetic and display these on the white furniture to bring it all together. Perhaps also having vases of flowers and some plants will add a green effect. You could also add trays or runners that are cottagecore-themed to reduce the white of the furniture.

Your homes so beautiful. I want make my room cottagecore. When I'm an adult I'm moving out and I'll be able to decorate to my liking everywhere. I love thrifting but barely get to.

[@gemmabxx]

Thank you! I don't thrift terribly much either so it's always nice to be able to share what i have managed with you all😊

New subscriber. Lovely video. Love how you took the time to share all the ways to create a cottage core design in your bedroom or any room. I'll be watching more. Thank you

All my bedroom furniture is mid-century modern. I like the clean simple lines, wood of course. My walls are decorated with pictures of past and present pets as well as pictures of places in Europe I have visited and trinkets I acquired while visiting said countries. They are a constant reminder of my adventures and the loves of my life. Plants, I have a black thumb, but I am definitely interested in pressing flowers as well as drying.

[@gemmabxx]

Sounds gorgeous!

Nice over-view of the aesthetic and thank you for your simple little ideas to add special touches.

Love your video, my style, thank you.

[@ginnyberg9271]

I just built a cottage a year ago and I’m light. You just missed my dog and comfy blankets and clothes. Great video. I’m new to your channel

[@buckeyefangirl1976]

It's so classy and beautiful.❤️❤️ Thanks for sharing.

[@KatsiYori-zk5gm]

I just try to look for old items that my family don't use. I only have a metal bed frame and it's a double bunk so I put a old bed sheet on the top bunk which has no mattress and I put extra items as storage for a canopy.

[@SteveLikesFlowers]

Thank you for this, I will be remaking my room soon and this has given me some ideas 😊

Lovely ideas

[@elizabethmarie7828]

I loved this, thank you!

[@LisaMarie-br8tn]

Cute video! ....but most fish live 10+ years I would suggest doing a plant tank only and skip out on using a living animal simply for a "trendy aesthetic."

[@gemmabxx]

Definitely agree, I only recommend that if thorough research is done and there is a genuine interest in keeping the pet😊

[@Slow_Livingg]

I like your videos 😍😍👏🏻☺️

[@theloveyourfacegal2773]

Nice video 😊

Hi, I love cottegecore aesthetics and like to take good pictures for my handmade clothing brand but didn't know how as a small business owner we have a tight budget so I am taking all the pictures through my phone which is not that bad but any tips will be helpful. What should I avoid and what should I focus

[@gemmabxx]

Hey, I would recommend trying to do some outdoor photoshoots, possibly in forest/grass areas and by water. Cottagecore definitely leans towards English countryside so if you can, try to replicate that in the images through props such as vintage/french-inspired vases, ornaments, mugs, glasses, wall decor, old-fashioned bikes (you can pick these up cheaply or free) etc. When editing, there are quite a few filters that give a slightly lighter, almost fairy-like look to the images which I would recommend trying. Cottagecore also favors light and airy aesthetics so I would recommend photographing in bright light as opposed to darker. Not direct light as this might be a bit much but definitely bright. Maybe try looking on Pinterest and Shein to see how others photograph their cottagecore outfits. If you would like more specific help, feel free to send me a message😊 Good luck!

[@sijonhand-crafted8211]

Thank you so much 💓 it will help me a lot

[@Lily_basil]

Your voice is so southing!!!❤

[@myvelvetlife]

Very interesting, thank you 😊

[@hellofditties]

did you do a vid about how to correctly dry flowers? i have some rly expensive peonies that are drying out D: want to save them!

[@gemmabxx]

Oh wow, they sound gorgeous! I've made a short about drying flowers, however, for peonies I might recommend a slightly different method as I suspect hanging them upside down might not work too well. The oven method may work better for those... If possible, even getting those professionally dried might be a wise idea as they are so delicate.

[@gemmabxx]

A method that I would recommend I think would be to actually leave them in the vase for about a month. Don't add any water. This tends to keep the structure of the more delicate plants. There is a risk of some going brown though so if you don't want to take the risk, I'd recommend professional assistance😊

[@hellofditties]

@@gemmabxx nope that actually works for me! Thanks!

[@gemmabxx]

Just to add another comment to my list haha.... I'll get that video done for you today and take you through the whole process - have been needing to get it done so here's my motivation haha!

[@hellofditties]

@@gemmabxx omg you're a sweetheart! Thank you so much!

[@Gdhaym8]

Are you from NZ? Loved this video. 😊

[@gemmabxx]

Thanks heaps, and yes I am :)

[@Laura-rx9mp]

lovely video. new subbie

[@nellenaessens3634]

I have a accent wall that is apple blue sea green... I am not happy. I really want a light cottagecore but I am not allowed to have new furniture. I have plants (mostly cactus) and i trifted 3 tables I love trifting. I really want to have another aesthetic. but its so diffecult... i really want to move out and start all over but i need to wait a few years then.

[@gemmabxx]

@nellenaessens3634 Completely understand that, it can be very frustrating when you have limits placed on what you can do! Perhaps you could try making yourself a cottagecore corner, where you have a few items that remind you of the aesthetic?

[@KdexMC]

Where can I find that shelf at the start? I love it

[@gemmabxx]

Hey, I actually try to thrift all of my furniture so I'm not entirely sure where most pieces are originally from but I will definitely have a scout around to see if I can find out for you😊

[@KdexMC]

@@gemmabxx thanks ☺️

Hi im new to your channel

[@gemmabxx]

Welcome😊

[@isha3427]

I’d have to break my walls to get natural light in ☠️

[@gemmabxx]

It's definitely very difficult at times! In my dark rooms, I tend to opt for candle light instead and abandon any hope of a nice natural light during the day😂
