When are we taking our Xmas decs down ?

[TAMumof3]

Am itching to pack it all away - is tomorrow too soon ?

The first thing I do boxing day morning is take down the decorations so I can start the battle of where the children's gifts are going to live I've left a bit tinsel (tacky I know, but I love it 😂) on top of one of the picture frames by accident so that will stay there till next year but apart from that Christmas is packed away for another year.

Ours comes down on Boxing Day every year! Once Christmas is done and there's toys everywhere, I like to 'try' to get my house back together and let's face it - the tree is always the fucking biggest thing! 🤣

Up 22nd, down Twelfth Night.

New Years day ghis year. We're away the weekend otherwise I'd have done it on Saturday

I love Christmas (decorations been up since the 1st), but once I get to this point I start wanting to take it all down, to give myself some more space, and this year to be able to tidy DS's toys away. So it's usually NYE/ NYD depending on work. This year I'm putting everything away this weekend so I can enjoy a clear house before we both go back to work.

Tree came down today and im glad i can get some normality back. Ive started gutting out my living room as i want to decorate in the new year

I took what little decorations and tree down today. No matter how nice I do them they seem to clutter up the place and I get sick of looking at them. Some people have had their Xmas decorations up since November. Ridiculous! Years ago we didn't put them up till Xmas eve night so when the DC came down in the morning they were in awe and wonder as it was the first time they saw them and it added much more magic to Xmas day. Its too commercial and too early nowadays. Takes all the magic out of it.

I have taken mine down today as we have kittens and I cannot cope with another day of them trying to sit on the top of the tree

I really do t understand why people rush to out decorations up in early December and then whip them down on Boxing Day.

Why not put them up nearer Christmas and enjoy them for the whole holiday period?

Ours will come down on 12th night.

6th Jan 🤷🏻‍♀️🎄

Some will come down on Twelfthnight, the rest on the 6th. Hopefully it will all be down by the time we get up for school on the 7th, if not I'll finish off when DS is at school.

12th night and not a day before.

On 12th night! Maybe if people didn’t put trees up so fringing early, they’d be happy to keep them up till 12th night?!

Tomorrow if I get my way, however my mum is essentially Buddy the Elf which means they won't come down till the 6th

Ours went up first weekend in December and will come down on 6th January. We have family coming up here tomorrow for a few days to celebrate Christmas - definitely won’t take them down yet

After New Year for me. Probably 2nd if I get time. I love Christmas, and love the build up but always feel a little sad after the day is over so I would happily take them down today but DH won't let me

Mine today.. Because the baby was shoving her walker into the tree ansv when I pulled it out, it got stuck and the tree toppled over. Crap everywhere. Easier to pack away than re sort it..

Tool mine down Boxing Day morning

Took sorry.

Today... Normally wait until January but this year we have a 9 month old who has just learnt to crawl.... We got fed up having to move him away from the tree and all the baubles were moving higher and higher up the tree anyway 😂

Nope tomorrow is not too soon imo, but then I'd have had mine down today if hadn't been working a 12 hour shift , as it stands I'm also on a 12 hr shift tomorrow so I'll have to wait until Saturday when I don't start work until 3pm, so can get them down and everywhere tidy before work

Ours is going down tomorrow and I cannot wait 😂

9th or 10 th of jan usually

we also put up beginning or middle of nov

Did mine today. Christmas has been and gone, no need for them any longer and sick of the sight of them

Always take mine down new years day
