I have noticed there are alot of people that decorate their homes inside as well as outside at Christmas as well as there are alot of people that never put any up at all.I put a Christmas tree up as well as some lights up my window as well as a few decorations on the ceiling.

I don't make decorations during Christmas that will last for a few days. I am just trying to be practical. The good thing about it is that it doesn't hurt and I still feel the ambiance of Christmas. Our neighbors are decorating their homes and even outside their homes and it's good as long as they are happy about it. I don't have plans of making decorations this year. I will just celebrate Christmas with those people that I love.

She might, but in fact, I actually do hang things from my ceilings! It's so pretty! It's not just Christmas decorations, either, but, for example, I collect wind chimes & mobiles, & since I live in a rough neighborhood & don't wish to risk having them stolen, I don't hang them outside, but near AC ducts & a ceiling fan, to enable the chimes to tinkle & ring, & the mobiles to turn!

People are always astonished to see such a colorful sight! That pleases me, being able to make people smile. It's a treat to see their eyes light up! thumbup

I just moved in to my new condominium unit today. It would be great if I can decorate the place. Unfortunately, the place is still bare and I am yet to rennovate it. I have a small christmas tree at my parent's house that I've been itching to bring there but then again I'm having second thoughts as it may just end up as clutter.

A little christmas spirit in my new house won't be bad I think. So yeah maybe i'll end up decorating even just a little this year

Not everyone celebrates Christmas but my family does. We do hang our decor and lights in and out of our apartment. It adds to that holiday feeling and the lights are pretty to look at, too.

I don't but my mother decorates during every holiday that comes. she taking decorating classes so she just loves to decorate and holidays and having family over is just another excuse for her to go shopping and decorate the house. its just hard for her to find nice things now because we have two baby twins in the house and they like to pull stuff and push stuff so she has to find things that are child friendly some times so the house isn't as decorated as it was when they weren't around because we try to keep things higher. one year one of the baby pulled stuff off the christmas tree so thats the only thing we have at eye level. i can't wait for thanks giving though because i love seeing tukeys and scare crows all over the house it has a family and warm since of appeal in a way.

I always decorate inside and outside, with a Christmas Tree, manger and wreaths etc... However since my daughter and her husband have been living with me they do all the work. My son-in-law is a big time Christmas fanatic. He loves Christmas so much and he does all the decorating outside. He already drew a picture of my house and outlined where he will be putting the lights outside. He is so funny. If he had his way he would have Christmas decorations up all year round.lol

I live with my mother currently, and she doesn't celebrate Christmas. I do put up a small desk tree in my room that lights up in the dark. =] Next year I'll be moving in with a friend, who LOVES decorating for every possible holiday. So I'm sure next year my house will be totally decked out with window clings, wreaths, figurines, and everything else you can think of. Me? I'm the baker, so I always make holiday-related deserts, especially cookies!

nope I don't put up any christmas decorations, not even a christmas tree. Just not into any of that stuff anymore. Neither is my son, he is 33 and he is not that interested.

When I was a kid, & heard adults say things such as, "Oh, I don't decorate any more; that stuff is just for kids, anyway," it sent a shudder up my spine! shocked I figured growing up must be the dullest thing imaginable! Was there some unknowable, terrible force that changed kids when they hit adult status?! I wondered if even I might someday suffer such a fate! It terrified & saddened me, as I loved Christmas decorations so much.

I made a promise to myself then not to let it happen to me! I never want to be so jaded by the beauty of the season that I don't at least try to decorate! Please, God, I prayed, please never let me get that old! w00t

And year after year, my prayer has been answered; my passion has remained. When possible, I get & out & look through the town at the really good displays, ooh-ing & ah-ing like a kid at all of it. If I make it to Jimmy Cricket's "a hundred & three," I know I'll never lose it.

I feel so sad for you, Winterose. cry
