    Default Putting up decorations!

    When do you put up your decorations for Christmas? I always put mine up a couple of days before Thanksgiving so the house will be all pretty for the holidays!

    I keep my fall/harvest decorations up till Thanksgiving then pull out the Christmas decorations once December starts. I try to start with the more seasonal/winter (pinecones, cinnamon sticks, vine and evergreen wreaths) items then as the holiday approaches I bring out my Yule and Christmas items (stockings, Santa, etc).

    We usually do it on Thanksgiving, I surely am doing it this year since all my kids will be home on Thanksgiving so it will be fun

    I think we'll be doing it the weekend after thanksgiving. I'm a scrooge because I hate having the "clutter" around but I do it for my daughter. Christmas tree goes up about 1-2 weeks before Christmas.

    I'll probably get mine started the day after Thanksgiving since I'm off work that day.
