Cottagecore Guide to the Willamette Valley

March 8, 2023
The best design trends have always come into being when people go all-in on their truest yearnings. In the case of cottagecore — the aesthetic that took over Instagram in the summer of 2020 and hasn’t let up — you’ll know it when you see it.

Learn more here.  Here’s one thing you can say about the lasting legacy of the Oregon Trail, a fact that has lodged the 2,170-mile migration in the minds of generations: The struggle was real. The numbers alone are enough to chill. Of the estimated 500,000 settlers who made the five-month journey from Missouri to Oregon in the 1840s to 1860s, one in 10 would...
