Putting Up Christmas Decors

Well, I find September too early to put up Christmas decor. Usually my family does it on November, by the second or third week. They are up until the first or second Sunday of January.

Hi there Veronizm!Well, usually, we put up our decors after Halloween. I guess we will be putting the decors this year like that. We put up some Halloween decorations every November and after Halloween, when we take them down, that's when we put up the Christmas decors. I am a bit excited since I love it how people decorate their houses for the Christmas season. It's like every house looks cheerful and alive.
On Christmas Season, we always put up a tree and every year, we decide what the motif will be. For this year, I will be rooting for Yellow Gold to remember the late President Corazon Aquino. She made a big difference, change the course of our nation and made it become a "nation" again. We will be remembering her this Christmas.
We also put up large Christmas stockings on the door of our bedrooms although I won't be participating this year but instead, I will be the one putting treats on them.

hi veron.

my wife is in-charge of the decors. usually we start decorating by november, with the tree and the lights. putting the tree away is also made early, once the 3 kings date is passed.

but you know, aside from the tree, we usually have the other decors on the whole year round. i don't know about her, but she's not lazy to remove them. maybe she wants to feel the christmas everyday.

hi veronizm, I am no fan of that Christmas decoration at all but my husband is. He has boxes and boxes full of that stuff and two years ago we bought a small artificial Christmas Tree cause he wanted one.
Normally my husband will decorate just before Christmas Eve, sometimes even on Christmas Eve.
And we put all that Christmas stuff away again January 6.

Hi Veronizm,

I normally start decorating the home with Christmas theme after the Halloween, or in our country, the All Saints Day/All Souls Day, which is after November 2. The Christmas tree again claims the centerstage, along with the Christmas lights and other trimmings. I put them away after the Three Kings, the first Sunday of January.

i like to celebrate fall and our canadian thanksgiving (in early october) before i put christmas ornaments. we start decorating around the beginning of december and take down our stuff (sans the snowmen) just after new years. (snowmen are left up til march ish).

Hi Veronism. You must really like Christmas! The earliest the decorations go up at my house is December 1. I find that if I put them up too early, I'm completely sick of them by the time Christmas comes around. Last year, we put them up even later than that, around the middle of the month. Then, we take them down just after New Years. I've seen some people that still have them up at the end of February, lol. I think they're just too lazy to take them down!

we do our's right after thanksgiving and i look forward to it more this year since both of my grandsons is older and will love the lights i am putting up. plus i like doing it for other kids as well too

My tree will go up the day after Thanksgiving. I will put my decorations the day after as well. I have always put things up in November. My husband and I put our seven feet tree up and our ornaments. Our stockings go up on Christmas Eve right before we go to bed. I am sure we will have a cat or two under the tree. For some reason the cats love sitting under the tree.
