Last year’s (woodland) and this year’s (Mario Party) costumes with recycled mushroom hat. 😊

Anxiety meds aren't fully working and I am still lost on social interactions, but I am less afraid to be more openly myself. The pull and skirt are from ethicalroots. I hesitated a long time, and I'm happy I decided to gift the clothes to myself.

Please, do not be mean, exposing myself on internet is scary, and I'm not sure if this post will stay, but now, I want to share.

Green is my favorite color, I think you can guess ! Also, my character is a Drow and the mushrooms make me think of them. Fun fact, today, I learnt that there were Drow farmers in the Underdark inhabiting houses built in giant toadstool mushrooms !

Literally so thrilled. I can't believe someone got rid of this gem.

A quiet autumn road in the woods. I’m building a small homestead in New Brunswick and sharing the journey — nature, metal detecting, and mythic fantasy writing.

Hii! So I've been thinking about songs I listen too that feel cottagecore, like when I listen to them I immediately feel transported to a place of nature and tranquillity, surrounded by peaceful landscapes, streams, flowers and animals. So I am wondering which songs make you feel like this and hoping we can discover some new songs from the recommendations each of us shares 🤎🧡

I'm looking for songs with lyrics (no Ghibli, LOTR, Sleeping at last, fleet foxes, ... I already have those in the playlist hahahaha). It can be in any language and any genre, since I not only appreciate the lyrics, but the vibe the song has. Here are some of my favourites! (it was a hard pick...) 💚

Ahead by a Century (The tragically hip) (I obviously know it from Anne with an E)

All about us (He is we, Owl city)

Marble floors (Vian Izak, Juniper Vale)

Perfection as a Hipster (Neil Hannon, Emily Browning)

White winter hymnal (cover by Birdy) (I know the original one is by Fleet foxes but I love her voice and calm vibes when singing this one)

Moonlight shadow (Mike Oldfield)

Chemtrails over the Country club (Lana del Rey)

Somewhere only we know (Keane)

syntynyt suruun ja puettu pettymyksin (Maustetytöt) (it's a finnish duo, quite sad song but I love love the vibes it gives, and the movie from where I found it).

Este tren (Rozalen) (Spanish singer)

Soldier poet king (The Oh Hellos)

EDIT: THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALL THE RECOMMENDATIONS ! I WILL BE LISTENING TO ALL OF THEM 🥹❤️

I rescued this sweet guy one week ago today and still have yet to find the perfect name for him. We rescued him with his brother, who we’ve named Teddy. I’ve always given my cats British-sounding names, so initially I was thinking Archie, but the more I hang out with him, the more it doesn’t feel right. He’s gentle and kind with a fun springiness about him, almost fox-like (and he looks like one, too!). My fiancé and I LOVE Fantastic Mr. Fox, so we thought a name from that would be perfect, but none of the obvious ones feel just right. We thought about…

Kristofferson - This is my favorite of the bunch, but it’s a mouthful and I don’t like the nickname “Kris” for a cat

Ash - A second runner-up, but I’m not sure it fits him

Paddington (the town the movie takes place in) -
Super cute and pairs well with his brother’s name, but “Paddy” feels too close to “Teddy” and he’d likely be associated with the bear

Non-Mr. Fox names I liked were Finnegan, Kipper, and Casper, but none of those feel just right, either.

If anyone has any soft-sounding, fox or woodland-inspired name recommendations, they’d be so appreciated!

I've had a jumper that was a lovely texture and colour but really worn out. Then inspiration struck. Here are its sleeves in a new incarnation.

A cozy shot of the path outside of my cabin. It always gave a fairy tale vibe.

I love the song by Enya called Flora’s Secret. Whenever I hear it I think of cottagecore and that lifestyle. I made a video using the song.

WORK IN PROGRESS.

Picked up painting 9 years later. Currently making (in watercolour) this original artwork, a whiskey loving gnome, Three Braid Aunty.

I’ve allllways wanted to whittle and let me tell you…it’s not easy for a lady whittler with small hands, but I’m proud of myself! I’m excited to make more tiny carvings.

Hi everyone, I’m trying to find some nice quality lace up brown leather boots that won’t fall apart on me but match my aesthetic. Do yall have any recommendations? Bonus if they work for wide feet! Pics added for reference
