December Captions & Quotes For Instagram & Your End-Of-Year Posts

It may feel hard to believe, but the countdown to New Year’s festivities and 2023’s fresh start is officially just right around the corner. While December has a reputation for being cold and dreary, it’s also the most wonderful month of the year, thanks to big holidays like Christmas, Hanukkah, and Kwanzaa, and all the annual fun that go on just before January. Whether you’re starting to think ahead to your New Year’s Eve plans, New Year’s resolutions, and which ugly Christmas sweater to wear to the next holiday party, these December captions and quotes for Instagram will have you ready to embrace the final weeks of the year with a festive photo.

Of course, the countdown to next year wouldn’t be complete with plenty of December Instagram posts sharing just how serious you are about embracing the holiday season and making it as merry as possible.

There are so many December traditions to look forward to every year, and they’re all so Instagram and TikTok-worthy.

Now that it’s December, you’ll want to capture special memories to look back on for years to come, like chopping down your tree at the Christmas tree farm, and taking it home to decorate it with jolly decorations like tinsel and colorful lights. You may also bundle up in your best winterwear to visit your local German holiday market with a mug of something toasty warm in hand, or venture to the mall to Santa shop for your loved ones. If you’re heading to your hometown for the holidays, you’ll want to capture plenty of photos with your high school besties and your family baking holiday cookies, pies, and other festive treats, because they’ll look too yummy not to post. Whichever winter moments and memories you decide to share on the ‘Gram, you’ll need the perfect quotes, puns, and sayings to caption your end-of-year Instagram posts and welcome December.

Despite its reputation and the plunging temperatures, December is anything but bleak. It’s the perfect month to reconnect with your most cherished people, enjoy the holidays to the fullest, bask in the glow of the fireplace, and have some well-deserved revelry before the new year comes around.
