If you’ve got a lot of books sitting around why not put them to good use during the holiday season? We recently decorated the Ambassador International offices for Christmas and decided to build our very own book tree in the lobby.

We completed our book tree with white lights and a star on top. We think it makes a very festive addition to the reception area. And it’s a great way to display some of our favorite books as well!

We found some creative inspiration over on Pinterest. Check out our Decorating with Books board to see some other beautiful trees that were built using books. One downfall of the book tree is that it doesn’t have that lovely pine scent, but we’ve got a Christmas candle to help us with that.
