I think there’s something really special about building routines that feel soft and grounding, ones that make you actually want to slow down. For me, cottagecore isn’t just an aesthetic, it’s a way of living with more intention, more presence, and a lot more heart.
This page is where I share the little daily and seasonal rhythms that bring a sense of calm to my days. Morning rituals, homemaking routines, gentle seasonal shifts… the quiet things that make life feel more meaningful, even if they seem small.
You don’t need to live in the countryside to live this way, it’s more about how you move through your day than where you are. If you’re looking for a slower, softer approach to everyday life, I hope something here feels like a good place to start.
