Cluttercore is a maximal approach to decorating where more is more. It's not about making a mess or filling a room with piles of junk that would make the folks on Hoarders jealous, but about displaying and arranging what you have and love. It's about loving what you already own. It's about artfully arranging a museum wall worth of family photos, instead of one tasteful framed print. It's about displaying all your Depression glass or vintage milk glass instead of saving it in the china cupboard for special occasions, just because you love it.
People have really taken a fancy to cluttercore and social media is filled with mentions. The #cluttercore hashtag is all over the place on TikTok, Instagram, Pinterest.
The rise of cluttercore may be connected to the pandemic. We want to feel safe, we want to feel comfortable, we want to feel protected and taken care of - stuff can act like a literal cocoon.
So display the stuff you love: stuffed animals, jewelry, movie posters, concert tickets! See some examples:
