For 2023, John Lewis unveils six new decorating themes inspired by Christmases past, present and future, think COPPER trees and nostalgic designs. Here we preview the Christmas 2023 collection.
A first look at John Lewis’ six key Christmas themes for 2023 – and some top decoration ideas.
August has arrived and that literally means Christmas has begun…right?! Well, it certainly has for a handful of UK retailers who have already given us a sneak peek as to what will hit shelves this festive season.
From Tesco and Asda’s food offerings, which look delicious, to The Range, Homebase and B&M’s new Christmas baubles and decorations, we’re going to have one merry Christmas.
And now it’s time for John Lewis to step aboard the sleigh ride as the brand reveals its festive collections which have been inspired by the magic of nostalgia and the enchantment of Christmas.
“The design team took inspiration from our archives, giving treasured vintage prints a new lease of life. From baubles to wrapping paper and glassware to napkins, the carefully reimagined designs have been celebrated throughout the Christmas collection.” said Christmas Buyer for the store Lisa Cherry.
John Lewis’s six trends are Polar Planet, Rainbow Time Capsule, Christmas Cottage, Royal Fairytale, Winter Fairytale and Beyond Christmas.

Plus, a few highlighted decorations from the collection.
Polar Planet
Embrace the Scandi-style allure, adorned with earthy wonders like wooden accents, neutral tones, lush greenery, snowy wreaths, and delicate white berries. Bask in the beauty of simplicity at its finest!
Our pick: Polar Planet Sisal Arctic Fox, £6
Rainbow Time Capsule
Immerse yourself in a vivid kaleidoscope of fiery reds, cool blues, playful pinks, and radiant oranges. This fun theme embraces bold tones, retro materials and stripy baubles.
Our pick: Rainbow Time Capsule Letter Bauble
Christmas Cottage
This cosy Christmas cottage theme is packed full of traditional colours of red, green and gold. Copper baubles and even a copper tree make sipping hot chocolate and watching festive flicks even more magical. Think starry nights, crackling fires and family time.
Our pick: Christmas Cottage Unlit Copper 7ft Tree, £229
Royal Fairytale
An exuberance of rich jewel tones and dazzling ornaments make this royal theme one of a kind, think sun and moon, the noble lion to the strength of an Elephant and a crown fit for any royal tree.
Our pick: Royal Fairytale Sun and Moon, £6
Winter Fairytale
A family stroll along a snowy pathway is what springs to mind when you think of JL Winter Fairytale theme. With a frosted pallet walking in a winter wonderland has never been truer.
Our pick: Winter Fairytale Tree Snowglobe, £8
Beyond
This far-out trend is all about Christmas in the future. Packed full of sequins and even some holographic tree wrapping paper, this could be exactly what Santa’s workshop could look like in Christmas 2024?…
Our pick: Beyond Christmas Green Robot Snowglobe, £8
