Has everyone decorated and put their real tree up yet?

Nah, put mine up about a week before
...usually doesn't come down till like march as i cba haha.

Yes! Ours went up today (a real one) and it's always still thick and bushy on new year's day when we take it down. Merry Christmas 🎄

Yes it's up. Bought one from a Christmas tree farm last year for £70 but this one is £17.99 from Lidl's

Yay!

Probably tomorrow 🎄

Depending on if I can be bothered to go and buy one.

Got ours today and will decorate it tomorrow. Got visitors coming on Monday then we're away for 5 days over next weekend so it's more about logistics, but I normally get it beginning of dec so not so much earlier....

I've just put mine up. I expect it'll be back down shortly if the expression on the cat's face is anything to go by.

Nope mine goes up after the 10th of December and comes down shortly after new year. I don't shop until the start of December either. I just feel Christmas just goes on and on and it loses some of its magic because it drags if I put the tree up too early.

Yes, did it all today! We have an artificial one (that we got from Woolworths years ago and still going strong). I normally do it first weekend in Dec - only since having Dd though.

Monday ..as we are going abroad for two weeks

Housemate is very bah humbug about Xmas so no tree, he's not stopping me having fairy lights however

Yes, because in the past I've either had no weekends to do it or when we've chosen a date, it rains and we can't put anything up. So now if it's after mid-Nov and dry, at least the lights get put up. Don't have to switch them on until December.

Our trees are stay-outside potted ones though, which is why it needs to be dry! Both are far too big to haul indoors any more - I only put LEDs up inside now.
