Our Approach
Harnessing the ‘Cottage Core’ trend amongst millennials seeking traditional pastimes as an antidote to modern living, we on-boarded relevant influencers to create homespun, lifestyle content, tagged #SylvanianCottageCore.
Continuing this theme, we ran a ‘How Cottage Core are you?’ quiz, a competition to win a staycation holiday in a log cabin, plus offered Sylvanian-themed baking recipes and home interiors tips.
