Whether you celebrate any holidays toward the end of the year or not, it’s always lovely to see all the decorations and twinkling lights. And in the lovely corner I know as bookish Instagram, there’s a whole world of beautiful decor being brought out for the season, with creative bookstagramming to highlight current reads. Here’s a little look at what some folks are doing with their holiday inspiration.

A little bit of spice…

Some baubles…

¡Hola chicxs! 🤗 . ¿Cómo os está tratando este tiempo? Por aquí hoy hemos tenido la primera nevada del año ❤ . Hoy me gustaría mostraros con más calma las dos velitas que compre a @stellettes_soycandles 🕯 Una de ellas es #Bookstagram y la otra es #Sookies ❤ Ambas huelen genial y por aquí las estaréis viendo más a menudo en el "nuevo feed", con el que todavía no estoy para nada contenta 🙃 Pero que espero ir mejorando poco a poco ❤ . ¿Coleccionáis vosotros velas literarias? 🕯 ¿Os gusta leer acompañados del olor de una vela literaria? 📚 . #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #books #BooksNBlogs #blogger #bookblogger #instabook #instapic #bibliophile #booklover #amordelibro #amorporleer #bookaddict #literatura #literature #bookstagramespaña #bookstagrammerespaña #velasliterarias #soycandles #velas #fandom

We cannot forget the book trees…

Or the candy canes…

And especially not the tea…

Here are some stars…

And for good measure, a cat…

And to round things off, some cozy socks and perfect pupper paws:
