Lily: The Neurodivergent-Friendly Mascot Behind UpperRoomPrints' Cottagecore Stationery
Lily's Origin: A Tale of Unexpected Magic
In the misty edges of the Whispering Woods, where shadows dance between ancient trees and moonlight filters through forgotten paths, Lily was born on the night of the autumn equinox. Unlike other black cats who prowled the forest, she was different. Her eyes held stories untold, and her fur seemed to shimmer with a quiet magic that set her apart.
The woodland creatures whispered about her. The owls spoke of her ability to see beyond the visible world, while the mice knew she was a protector of those often overlooked. Lily wasn't just a cat - she was a guardian of the unseen, a keeper of quiet strengths and hidden beauties.
Her home was a small, cozy cottage nestled between two ancient oak trees. Walls lined with sketches, shelves filled with curious objects, and windows that seemed to capture light in the most unusual ways. This was her sanctuary, her creative realm where imagination knew no boundaries.
Every great brand has a story, and for UpperRoomPrints, that story starts with a sleek black cat named Lily. She's not just a mascot - she's the soul of our neurodivergent-friendly design philosophy.
How Lily Came to Be
Lily wasn't some marketing strategy cooked up in a boardroom. She just... appeared. Like most of my best ideas, she emerged organically during my creative process. As the business grew into a safe space for neurodivergent art, Lily became our perfect ambassador.
More Than Just a Pretty Face
Black cats have always been misunderstood - kinda like many in the neurodivergent community. By making Lily our mascot, we're flipping that narrative. She represents quiet strength and the magic of being authentically yourself.
Lily in Our Products
You'll find her everywhere: sticker sheets, notebooks, and now our brand new logo beanie. She transforms ordinary stationery into something that whispers "you belong here".

Why This Matters
When you wear this beanie, you're making a statement. You're showing the world that different is beautiful, that handmade matters, and that small businesses creating meaningful art deserve support.
Lily's Creative Compass
Behind the scenes, Lily is our creative north star. Every design starts with the question: "Would this make Lily proud?" She's appeared in sketches, inspired color choices, and influenced our entire aesthetic.
Looking Ahead
As UpperRoomPrints grows, Lily will continue leading the way. We're planning more wearable art, each piece designed with the same sensory-friendly, inclusive approach that defines our brand.
