To ask when Christmas ends for you

[Tellmelies65]

I feel January the 1st is when Christmas ends for and when I take my decorations down.

6th January as it's a bank holiday here and the celebration of the arrival of the 3 kings - plus kids get stockings again!

Boxing Day.

I really hate Christmas though and only pretend to love it for the kids.

Around the 6th of January.
Taking the decorations down on 1 January is a bit miserable, I think - 'here's your coat , what's your hurry".

Christmas for is is 3 days Eve to boxing Day. Tree up day before,and down day after.
It's a live tree, so doesn't like being brought inside really.

I like to keep it going for as long as I can. Decorations all still up here (lots of Christmas food still - yes I overbought), Christmas films on tv and a roast today. Will keep this going over the next few days but start to take some decorations down tomorrow and aim to pack them away by the time school starts on Tuesday. Always makes me sad but then look forward to birthdays in our house in February and then Easter, spring....

As close to the 6th January as I can get usually. It'll be Sunday this year as our wedding anniversary is on Monday & the dc are back to school Tuesday. We don't normally put them up 'til mid December (it was a bit earlier this year as DH was home).

Always take them down on New Year's Eve. Can't stand having them up in the New Year.

Used to be new year's Day. But now I live in another country and we have three kings day which is when the children actually get their presents so now it's Jan 6th

Weekend closest to the 6th for me. Our decorations will come down on Sunday. It's always a very bleak feeling when they're gone though. I hate Jan at the best of times and I think this Jan will be worse than most.

6th January

In Ireland, 6th January is a lovely celebration for women (obvs except this year).

1st of January is when its over for me

I decorate the hall, kitchen, living room, conservatory, playroom and pub shed, two out of three children have 5ft + trees in their bedrooms, so i start taking down the decs room by room on the 27th

The last rooms is the living room which comes down on the 2nd onwards...thats mainly because its ds1 birthday on the 3rd and it was always nice to get the birthday banner and balloons up

Leaving mine up till end of jan or longer I'm loving my festive lights too much still to take them down 😂

27th December

I am expecting the 12 Drummers to turn up on 6 January and they will declare Christmas is over and we will take the decorations down.

They'll be there on the 5th!

Epiphany - 6 Jan.

Decs come down last thing on Twelfth Night - 5 Jan.

Twelfth Night, always.

2nd Jan, I always feel when New Years Day has passed that it's over, plus the DC have got school on Monday, it somehow feels wrong to have the decorations up when they come home from school and are back to normal.

6 Jan but I might put the tree lights up as fairy lights because covidbrexitjanuary needs as much twinkle as it can get.

Twelfth Night

Tomorrow I expect. It's DD's first birthday on 7th so we'll be putting up a few decorations for that. Then after that, the living room needs decorating asap as we recently moved in and it's pretty grim in there.

Shallow07 Aww happy first birthday to your dd hope it’s a nice as it can be with COVID.

12th night. Why the fuck would you get rid of Christmas pretty fairy light early this year 😂

We will take ours down on the 2nd.

Hollybutnoivy what do they get in their second stocking?!
