This is of course to those people who celebrate Christmas, but if you don't then you can still respond. I am not going to have on this year. I don't really see the big importance of them. I don't have any extra space to put it in and I don't have children or anything, and my cat would probably play with the ornaments and knock it down. What about you? Do you think they are important?

Yes, I put up a Christmas tree every year. Sometimes I don't want to. They take a lot of work to put up. And then when the holidays are over, it is even MORE work to take everything down and put it all away! But, it sure is pretty when it IS up. I think that you can celebrate without decorating. It is a lot of hard work but usually worth it. But, it just depends on the person.:)

Yes, I put one up every year. I have a nice fake one that looks just like a real tree. Nowadays I put it up more for the enjoyment of my kids and grandkids than I do for myself. I do enjoy seeing it though, all lit up and filled with the ornaments and decorations from Christmas's past. I have all of my kids ornaments they made throughout their school years, and now I have the pleasure of putting my grandkids 'special stuff they made' on too. In some ways I think it's important. All of my elders have passed now, and just sitting and looking at the tree always reminds me and the wonderful holidays we used to have together.

For your cat...here's what I do with my kitties lol. I sprinkle the bottom branches of the tree with pepper from my kitchen shaker. They have never tipped over the tree again since I started doing that. Now if they do go by the tree, they sleep peacefully underneath and leave the tree-climbing and ornaments alone.

We always put up a tree. I like to look at Christmas decorations. It puts me more in the mood for the holiday. Everyone has their own way of celebrating Christmas for me, putting up a tree is part of our celebrating. We have an artificial tree that we've had for over 30 years. It's still in good shape but every year we think of getting a new one with the lights already on it. But then we look at them and they are so expensive so we think - let's wait til next year lol.

This is an individual question. If it is a live tree, then I suggest that you don't put it up till 10 days before Xmas. When in the house, it drops needles in the dry atmosphere, and you will have them all over the house, also not good if you have pets. Buy the tree and leave it outside for a few days, before you put it up.
Artificial tree can be put up anytime, it seems these days. I like to wait until the 15th December, then the whole season is not dragged out and I can enjoy my tree over xmas,without being totally fed up looking at it.!!!

We put a tree up every year. My family is very keen on Christmas so we have lots of decorations and we usually start putting them up on the 1st Dec because it takes a week to get them all up. We don't get a real tree every year though.

This year we put the tree up yesterday because we are having Christmas on the 7th Dec as we are going to Australia on the 9th for the whole of Christmas and New Year. We are also not putting as many decorations up this year, but it wouldn't feel right if we didn't have any.

Putting a christmas tree up is a tradition we keep in our household everywhere. Even if we don't have that much money to spend on a real tree we pull down the fake one from our loft and decorate it. Always find that I don't feel christmasy until the tree and all the ceiling decorations have been put up. It's only a small fake tree we'll use this year but it does the job and when it's decorated you would never know the difference. I know most of the ornaments on the tree tends to fall off or if you have a real tree it tends to lose its pines and make a bit of a mess...but that's all part of the fun of it...afteral it only happens once every year.

Makes me laugh when I think of my posh uncle and aunt. Every year they buy a massive tree which never fits in their house so they have to cut the top off so that it fits the room.

For me setting a Christmas tree is somehow important, it add up to the spirit of Christmas and for me it symbolize happiness in our home.

I think the Christmas tree is one of the many symbols you can put in your house to celebrate Christmas. But I personally don't think that every home should have to put one in their homes. Ofcourse I think it would look nice to have a Christmas tree in a house but if you are the type of person who would enjoy just having a simple small Christmas ornament or a wreath then it is fine, it's the spirit of Christmas that counts.
