There's something magical about wintertime — which is probably why so many of our favorite movies are set during the coldest time of the year. As a kid, snow days were the greatest gift (no school = no problem). As an adult, snow days can be equally as amazing thanks to the romantic cold weather and holiday vibes that are perfect for a cute selfie. Bundle up because these winter quotes are so cool, you'll want to add them to every Instagram post and the text page of your Chatbooks.

And after all that time spent on finding the right holiday cards and presents, and time spent at parties and around the table with friends and family, it's no wonder your camera roll is filled with sweet shots of you and your family (especially after it took you 10 minutes to get the perfect shot). Don't let those pics get lost in your phone, print them in a holiday-themed photo book (print them in a high-quality Layflat photo book and add blank text pages to create a personalized gift), or hang them on your wall with Canvas Wall Tiles. And if you love saving your favorite memories from every month, print 30 pictures each month with a Monthbooks subscription.
