When do you take down your holiday decor?

[Auticorn]

Title, basically~ I'm curious because it seems like a lot of people do it at certain times. :O So, I'm super curious as to when you take down Christmas decor (or other holiday decor for those who celebrate other holidays). So, when do you take it all down? Do you want until after New Years? Do you take it down in between New Years and Christmas?

My mom always make sure to have our tree down on the 25th of December. That's how she is. She gets sick and tired of seeing it up and takes it down on that day. So yeah.

Ours usually comes down the Saturday after Christmas, depending on when that is. It'll be January 5th this year because mother thought the 29th was too soon, especially considering this is the first time we've ever had a real tree.

Whenever my other half tells me to. She's the boss when it comes to superstitious matters such as these :)

In the 1st week of January. But I remember that one year, we had it up until the end of January.

Around mid January. Family is Orthodox Christian and the holiday we're used to (Old New Year) falls on January 14th this year. They're not used to celebrating/aren't big on Christmas so we keep them around until then!

i only decorated my store this year and i'll probably start taking down the decorations tomorrow.

It seemed like when I was little we'd have decorations up forever. We haven't decorated in a few years but it seemed as if we'd wait till about February or sometimes even March.

Like a true christmas spirit!

I'll probably keep them up for another week or two.

If we put ours up before the imaginary "ok" date then my partner would probably say we will get kidnapped by elves and forced to make Last Jedi merchandise for all eternity or something else equally horrid.

Usually the weekend after New Year's, but it might be sooner now that my dad is retired lmao

No. The 1st of November.

we take the tree down on the 5 or 6, it will be sad to see it go, Christmas went by so fast

I don't put up any decorations, but I usually take down my Christmas cards from display around New Year's Day.

I love winter and see the directions as being about winter. Last year I took down my Christmas trees pretty quick, but left up a lot of other winter decor. I didn't end up taking it all down until April. Lol.

I plan on doing the same this year.

Anytime between New Years and the 6th. It's bad luck to keep Christmas stuff up after the 6th so then you should keep your decorations up until Easter Sunday to avoid the bad luck, apparently.

I don't decorate as much as I used to when I still lived at home, but I still never take anything down before my birthday on the 9th of January. It's still only 2 weeks after Christmas, and I loved having the tree on as a kid while doing birthday stuff.

You sound just like my other half! That's why she's in charge of when they come down :)
