Putting Tree Up.

[PixieDustt]

When do you all put your tree up for Christmas?
Saw on Instagram today 4 people I know who have put their tree up today! 😳

1st of December. REAL TREE!!

December 1st

Never had a real tree! Would like to try but don't know if I'd regret it!
And correct me if I'm wrong because I know nothing about real trees but my son will be 5 months so worried about the needles on the floor

December 1st. Real tree

I have a real 🌲 it's the one I had last year and it's still in a pot in the garden. I'll bring it in maybe mid December

We have a real tree & it will go up on 21st December this year.

When our DC were very small we had an artificial tree because crawling babies & pine needles don't mix - and it still only went up a week before Christmas.

if DH had his way it wouldn't go up until Christmas Eve

I drove past a house today that had one up, twinkling in the window. It took me a moment to click that it was the first of November and not December.

Mine goes up roughly the 7th ish. Far too much pressure to stick to a specific date. Whenever it's easiest for us to get one and drag everything down from the loft.

There seem to be a few up!
Saw a house with Christmas lights up today.
I usually do mine end of November.
Mum still has to put the lights on! Just can't do the bloody things!

Ridiculous to put it up before December. People must have very dull lives.

I put up my big fake one in the bay window on 1st weekend in dec. real one whenever school fare is. Going away onn27th so may skip real tree this year.

Second week of December mine goes up

First Friday in December....Can't wait.
I haven't as much room as in previous years, I would still like a real tree though...Does anyone know if a particular type is slimmer than the rest?

I LOVE Christmas and am due to have DC1 at the end of November but tree still won't be up until 1st of December.

6th December. Holiday here in Spain, so I take full advantage with DS and get Old Fakey out of her box, Polar Express dvd on. It all comes down 7th January.

Usually mid-December, always a real one, slice of trunk sawn off by dh, goes in a bucket of wet gravel. Maybe slightly earlier if we have guests. Comes down 6th Jan.

NO NO NO

Don’t do it till December!!

You will be so fed up with it by Christmas Day that you will be taking it down one minute of midnight on the 26th December!!

That's crazy!! People are bonkers.

First weekend in December which will also be the last weekend in November this year.

Usually the first weekend in December. Always a real tree.
Will buy it a week before and sit it in a bucket of water in the garden for a week.

1st December real tree

Usually around the 21st or 22nd of November. I keep it up until the twelfth night though. To me, Christmas starts on Christmas Eve, rather than ending on Christmas day.

Start of December -real tree and like it down before new year. I love the anticipation and lead up so prefer having it up before rather than longer after. We have two children and some pets and at no point has having a real tree been a problem with either.

You are shitting me!
My tree goes up around the 20th of December. It would lose its specialness if it went up any earlier. We do have advent candles for the month of December though, so not a complete Grinch.

Yay, Parkrunner : "To me, Christmas starts on Christmas Eve..."

After dd2’s bday party, this year that means the night of December 15th. Which seems crazy early, as when I was a child they went up the afternoon we finished school!
