When do you put up your Christmas Tree?

[Anonymouscat20]

I know it’s only November but what a year this has been! I’ve heard some people say they’re going to put up their trees early to bring some festive spirit. When is everyone thinking of putting them up?

I'll put mine up at Christmas time.

Probably later than usual given all run up to Xmas activities won’t be happening.
My rule is double digit days in December onwards- so 10th onwards and down before new years day!

Last weekend of Nov here.

Usually December the 10th, my daughter is absolutely mithering to put it up soon though. I think I’ll let her at the end of this month.

DECEMBER

1st December, earlier than I'd like but it makes the kids happy.

When it's Christmas.

Same. As close to Christmas as I can.

A neighbour already has theirs up
No earlier than the first of December seems a good guideline

Usually up the sat after the 6th of dec and down the sat closest to the 6th Jan I work in a school and make sure its down before I go back to work

Whenever in December we have the time. Some years it's the 1st, often it's the middle but one year it was Christmas Eve morning. We like to keep it up until twelfth night though, I could never be one of those people taking everything down on Boxing Day.

2 weeks before Christmas. Otherwise it won't be looking its best at Christmas which rather defeats the object of having one.

Today. My tree being up harms nobody and brings me joy in what would otherwise be a shit show of a year. You do you op, whatever makes you happy.

Surely we can't buy one before 2 Dec?

Mines going up on Friday

Christmas Eve. As always.

Aren't they supposed to go up 12 days before Christmas, doesn't anyone do this anymore?

Usually the weekend after the 13th Dec, which was my grandmother’s birthday, so as a child Christmas always started after that! 😊

This year I think I might break with tradition and put it up earlier. Maybe Sat 5th Dec, first weekend in December. Need a bit of festive cheer!

Surely we can't buy one before 2 Dec?

I just drag mine out of the loft.

For me December but my neighbour has already got hers up.

Oh, and never followed the 12 days of Christmas thing. Christmas tree comes down on New Year’s Day. Depressing having it up later.

It's just you, sorry.

First weekend in December usually. But not if that’s the 1st or 2nd. That’s a bit too early for me. So looks like this year it will be around 5th or 6th. Might do outside lights before that.

We are moving house next week and I’m really looking forward to decorating the new house. Been in a bit of a rut with how we do things over last couple of years so it will be nice to really switch things up a bit.

Usually on my birthday which is early December. I certainly couldn’t wait until Christmas Eve.

Usually first weekend in December never in November
I don’t care how crappy year this has been putting your Christmas tree up now is just ridiculous yeah I see so many people have done it already why not put it up in July or have it up all year round ?

I love Christmas ........at Christmas!!!!
