For 2022, John Lewis unveil six new decorating themes inspired by a celebration of local living, think long-held traditions of markets and winter festivals. Here we preview the Christmas 2022 collection.
A first look at John Lewis’ six key Christmas themes for 2022 – and some top decoration ideas.
John Lewis’s new festive collections have all been inspired by the importance of community in towns and villages and the shared social moments of everyday life. Creating a collection of nostalgic pieces and rich tones, this year’s trends are sure to make you feel homely.
“We’re so pleased to be bringing our customers more sustainable Christmas options this year. We’ve introduced new felt, paper and wood decorations that will last many Christmases to come as well introducing biodegradable glitter across decorations. The initiative I am most happy about is that we will be using sales from faux Christmas trees to plant trees at our Leckford Farm and the surrounding area this year.” said the Christmas buyer for the store Jason Billings-Cray.
