20 Bookish Ornaments You Need on Your Christmas Tree
By:  @ Bookish.com

I don’t know about any of you, but decorating the Christmas tree is one of my absolute favorite parts of the holiday season. There’s a Wizard of Oz ornament set I’ve had since I was little, and I always take special care when placing Dorothy, the Tin Man, the Cowardly Lion, and the Scarecrow on their respective branches. There are tons of other literary ornaments out there, though, and I think I need to make a few additions to take my Christmas tree to the next level.

There are tons of Harry Potter ornaments out there, but these are my new favorites. They’d make my tree, in a word, magical.
