Last month, Bolio spent about $400 transforming her library into a winter wonderland with twinkle lights, candy canes, and a large fake tree. The room’s centerpiece is a massive floor-to-ceiling bookshelf brimming with her collection.
“My son loves the decorations,” she said. “He helped me decorate this year and put all of the glass decorations up on the shelves he could reach.”
Not everyone likes an early Christmas
Bolio said that while she loves the festive season’s earlier start, she understands that some people don’t share her enthusiasm.
As a content creator, she posts book reviews and other shopping and lifestyle recommendations to the 52,000 people who follow her on Instagram @theintrovertededition.
Bolio plans to finish decorating the rest of her house for Christmas soon.
Valentine’s Day, however, is her Super Bowl, and she’s already making a game plan.
“I like to go all out,” she said. “I’ll have pink and red hearts everywhere, and my bookshelves will be filled with Valentine’s Day decor.”
