Cottagecore has taken over social media, promoting images of a simple life filled with the warmth and traditional decor associated with the countryside. 

And John Lewis predicts that the trend isn’t quite over yet; instead, it’s about to take over the Christmas scene.

Unlike the rainbow theme, Christmas Cottage embraces the classic green and red ornaments, with the addition of mistletoe and wreaths around the house.

John Lewis encouraged users to incorporate mistletoe plates and Christmas tree-shaped dishes to bring this look to life.

There’s no need to go over the top for Christmas Cottage; just a few homely additions will turn a house into a warm and relaxing wonderland.

If Rainbow-Time Capsule wasn’t quite creative enough – Beyond Christmas might have more of an appeal.

For the outlandish thinkers with a keen curiosity, love of extravagance and alternative mindset, Beyond Christmas will transform a home into a magical haven this year.

The aesthetic rejects anything decorations remotely traditional and instead embraces the weird and wonderful.

John Lewis imagined that solar system-inspired wrapping paper, eye-catching baubles covered in glitter or shaped like a robot, and Christmas trees in unheard-of colours would do the trick.

In short, the Beyond Christmas theme is out of this world.
