🍂 Introducing the Autumn Forest Collection from Cottagecore Girl 🍂

There is something about autumn that makes home feel just a little more important.

The days grow shorter, the light turns golden, and suddenly we find ourselves wanting rooms that feel warmer, softer and perhaps just a bit more tucked away from the world outside. That feeling was the inspiration behind the new Autumn Forest Collection from Cottagecore Girl Texture & Design.

Set against a deep woodland green, Autumn Forest scatters maple and oak leaves, delicate branches, berries and pinecones across the paper in wonderfully muted shades of russet, ochre, moss, amber and faded gold. The pattern has been deliberately kept light and graceful—enough to bring the colors and textures of an autumn woodland indoors without overwhelming the room.
And because no two cottages—or castles!—are quite alike, Autumn Forest comes in eight variations.

Choose from four wood finishes—Dark Walnut, Mahogany, Light Oak and Pickled White—each available in two architectural styles: traditional paneled wainscoting for a more substantial, old-world look, or a simpler baseboard version that lets the wallpaper take center stage.

Every version has been designed as a seamless repeating texture, making Autumn Forest equally at home in a tiny country cottage, a cozy parlor, a grand manor house, a Highland castle—or whatever wonderful place you happen to call home in #SecondLife.

The Autumn Forest Collection is now available at Cottagecore Girl in Rivermarket and Dornoch.

I’m really looking forward to the return of Velvet Bohème on April 4th, along with several favorite designers and creators. This was one of my purchases from last year’s fall show, made by Fashionably Dead, and very in tune with my love of the 60’s. I can almost hear the strains of “Tuesday Afternoon” playing! #SecondLife

Get your ticket below and prepare to be uplifted! Join us on Sunday, April 13th for a virtual rendition of Mahler’s Symphony II 'Resurrection' at Dornoch Cathedral in #SecondLife. This sonic titan, which premiered in 1895, wrestles with life’s abyss before erupting in a transcendent choral finale—death defied, hope reborn. Gustav Mahler poured his existential angst into this sprawling work, blending orchestral fury with poetic reverie. Inspired by a funeral and a hymn of resurrection, its five movements chart a journey from despair to triumph, culminating in a blazing chorus that echoes the soul’s defiance of mortality. Don’t miss this digital echo of Mahler’s masterpiece, directed and broadcast by Magnus Brody and performed by the Brody Orchestra and the Cathedral Choir! #ScotlandInSL
