Christmas-themed photos have been flooding Instagram in recent days.
Kayleigh Page shared a photo of Clacton’s Christmas tree, the classical looking design is set at the top of the pier and creates a warming glow come nightfall.
She also photographed the fairy lights of the Cornhill in Ipswich.
Meanhwile, much-photographed baubles that make up the controversial Ipswich tree are the subject of an image by Niki Dennis.
And in far-flung Clontarf, in Dublin, there is a hint of blue to the festivities.
The team at mark Stevens Barbest Shop shared an image of their favourite Christmas bauble - one carrying the Ipswich Town crest.
Closer to home, these festive nails are the work of manicurists at Honey Nails and Beauty, in Foxhall Road, Ipswich.
