When do you put Christmas decorations up?
« on: November 04, 2015, 07:15:55 pm »
We usually put the outside lights around Thanksgiving (before it gets too cold), but don't light them until December.  The inside and tree are done around Decenber 10 to 15.

I don't really put up any kind of decoration for Christmas. Sometimes I might put something on the door, but other than that no.

I do it when I get a Christmas tree which would be some time after Thanksgiving.

Usually by Dec 5 most of the stuff is up.

Google JediJohnnie and May the Force be with you!

I dont do outside decorating anymore I dont have the funds to do that now :(

But I decorate the house for Christmas about 3 days before Thanksgiving, as Thanksgiving Dinner is always at my house, and I want the house to look festive for my guests :)

Ive done this for 30+ years

I have a one bedroom apartment.
I have a few Christmas things.
I don't put out any big decorations.
I keep my felt stocking hung behind my bathroom door.
I have a couple of plastic canvas items I made: Santa and a Poinsettia.
I have a few of my grandma's craft items.
I have a tiny Christmas tree that is on my magazine/ lamp table.
These things stay where they are all year round.
One year, I thought "why do I take the energy to put these things away and take them out again?"

We do ZERO decorating for Christmas, not even a tree. My daughter always goes to visit her dad out of state so it hardly seems worth it just for me. Plus, the cats eat EVERYTHING.

The whole kit and kaboodle is put up right after Thanksgiving.  It takes us a couple of days on the tree because it's 9-1/2 feet tall, but the outside lights and inside decos are done in a day's time.  I love Christmas!
