Christmas Tree, too early to put up?

Usually put up first weekend in Dec, so that being a week tomorrow. However, have got a new one for this year & really itching to get it up to see how it looks, but have never put an Xmas tree up in November! I dug out the baubles the other day & a few have broken, I’m thinking I may have to get more anyway. Has anyone else got their tree up? Maybe I can I wait another week 😁

Too early. Delayed gratification makes it worth it.

You'll be sick of it by Christmas Day!

eggontoast2 · 23/11/2019 11:43

Ours went up yesterday! Last weekend of November is fine in my opinion. Enjoy!

I thinbefoAdvent Sunday is too early.

It's 1st December. this year

BlueEyedFloozy · 23/11/2019 11:45

Your house, your choice.

Too early for me personally but I'm a middle of December and down by New Years eve kind of person because I get fed up of it.

Mine is going up next Friday. I always do the first weekend in December and must admit I am sick of the thing by 27th but if OH would let me I would put it up now. The looking forward to Christmas is better than the day itself if you ask me.

The whole house has to be decorated by 7 Dec, as DS2, his DP and their DS are coming for the weekend before they go to DP 's country on 14th to stay with her family until,28th. So we have a good excuse for early decs.

Put your tree up Grin

There are no prizes for waiting or not waiting Wink

I put mine up on December 1st but if I wanted to do it before hand I absolutely would.

MolyHolyGuacamole · 23/11/2019 12:13

Put mine up yesterday, and sitting in front of the tree this morning while having my coffee has made me so happy

Maykid · 23/11/2019 12:18

I have mine up for the same reason, new this year and wanted to try it out, then left it up.

Nextphonewontbesamsung · 23/11/2019 12:18

Yes. Way too early.

DrinkSangriaInThePark · 23/11/2019 12:21

Yes, too early. Advent hasn't even started.

Jolonglegs · 23/11/2019 12:22

Way to early.

Hopingtobeamum · 23/11/2019 12:25

Hell no!

I've got a manic Xmas this year so mine are mostly up now (did over the last two days).

Go for it, enjoy and post some pics!

MaidenMotherCrone · 23/11/2019 12:30

Do whatever makes you happy. I do mine in the middle of December because that is what makes me happy.

PrettyShiningPeople · 23/11/2019 12:31

Oh my god, how many threads on this!!!!! 🤦

Shesalittlemadam · 23/11/2019 12:37

Why is this such an issue every year?! Does it matter?

Do the 12 days of Christmas and be done with it if you're so unsure and desperate to get it exactly right

Shesalittlemadam · 23/11/2019 12:37

Everywhere I go this gets discussed every year. School gates, cafes, at the checkout 🤦🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️🙄

BiteyShark · 23/11/2019 13:01

Do it.

I am itching to put mine up but planning on next Saturday.

AuntieStella · 23/11/2019 13:21

Oh my god, how many threads on this!

I think this is the only one in thee topic

Before Advent Sunday is also too early for Xmas threads to migrate out from here Xmas Grin

Drum2018 · 23/11/2019 13:27

Need Dh to retrieve it from the shed loft so not a chance of getting it up til at least next weekend. He walks out of the room if a christmas ad comes on the tv Grin Like to have it up within the first week of December. Friend putting hers up today. If everyone in the house is happy with putting it up then go for it.

KittenLedWeaning · 23/11/2019 13:31

Put it up whenever you like, why not?

I'm having one this year, for the first time this century Xmas Grin. I was thinking of putting it up on December 14th, as my parents are coming up the following week and it would be nice to have it there when they arrive. They've had a bad year as my dad's vision has seriously deteriorated, so I want to make Christmas festive for them.

linentowel · 23/11/2019 14:13

Put it up!

Mine will be up next Sunday morning.

Hall and outside lights going up tomorrow.

Bollocks to all this advent crap. Do it and do it your way and be happy.

Enjoy.

SharonFromAccounts · 23/11/2019 14:17

Well put it up whenever you like of course. But it's too early in my opinion

We go for 5th December here and that's early enough. I only go that early because I've got the most beautiful ornaments and decorations and want to try and get the most out of them

73kittycat73 · 23/11/2019 14:37

I've had mine up for aboyut two weeks. Xmas Grin If it makes you happy, why not? Xmas Smile
