Blogmas Day 8 // The best, worst, and most unusual Bookmas trees I’ve come across

For Blogmas day eight, I wanted to theme my post around something that combines an icon of the festive season with our favourite things: ‘Bookmas’ trees. These tree-shaped stacks are time-consuming to arrange, but wonderful to look at, and I wanted to share a few of the best, strangest, and most original that I’ve come across in recent weeks.

The tiny DIY tree

These are easy to make. I made these using some books I bought at goodwill. Paperback romance novels seem to work best due to the binding. You can spray paint them or just add ribbon, stickers, or other "bling".

Bonus: not a tree, just Olaf

Olaf is going to be a must for January and February in the AES Library!


Have you ever made a book Christmas tree? (Did it go well?) Which is your favourite of these trees? Mine’s definitely the decadent tree!

Until next time,KateNEW

  1. These are so wonderful to look at! ❤ People are seriously creative. I can only imagine how much time it takes to make them, especially the bigger ones. (I wouldn't have the patience for it.)
