Have you got your tree up?

I usually do mine the first weekend of December but I'm feeling particularly festive this year plus my DD5 is desperate to put it up.
Who's got theirs up already?

I always do mine on Dec 1st if that falls on a weekend, if not, then it goes up the weekend before.

Poppins17 · 23/11/2021 15:18

Not yet, we will be putting it up on Sunday… although we do have lights on in our back garden Grin

GrumpyPanda · 23/11/2021 15:20

Hell no. Christmas eve.

WreckTangled · 23/11/2021 15:27

We usually put ours up a week before Christmas but will be two weeks before this year as a) we're going away the week before and b) dh's customer has kindly bought us a tree which he needs to collect from her next week. I will put the window lights and a few festive items out on the 1st December though.

Yes, yes I do. We have never had the tree up this early but we had a fuck it moment Grin

And yes 'it's November' sigh - it makes no odds to anyone of my tree is up. I love Christmas, I don't get fed up of it and it's in my house not any of you humbuggers Grin

Mytinyman · 23/11/2021 15:38

We put ours up on 7th of November! Couldn't wait anymore

AuntieMarys · 23/11/2021 15:41

God no. 15th December.

fedup65356 · 23/11/2021 15:42

No. Probably next weekend.

Lovemusic33 · 23/11/2021 15:43

Not yet as we are getting a real tree and I want it to last until at least Boxing Day 😬

nannybeach · 23/11/2021 15:43

Not in the middle of November!

HalfpastFlea · 23/11/2021 15:46

No, ours will go up on the 12th December.

FourTeaFallOut · 23/11/2021 15:48

No, we're painting the kid's rooms this weekend and then we'll put up the Christmas decorations next weekend.

flumposie · 23/11/2021 15:56

Usually put it up the first Saturday in December, but this year we are busy the first 2 weekends. So for the first time ever it will be going up in November.

Peridot1 · 23/11/2021 15:58

No. I love Xmas and decorations etc but I can’t do it in November. I’m a grinch until 1 December!

Bigassbeebuzzbuzz · 23/11/2021 16:01

Mine is up. In the loft for another few weeks. Extracting cats from the tree is annoying so it goes up as late as possible.

user1471443411 · 23/11/2021 16:04

No, we will either get a real one, then it won't go up til just before Christmas, or a new fake one, but still wouldn't put it up until December, need to have a good clean and tidy first.

StewPots · 23/11/2021 16:08

I usually don’t bother until at least the first weekend in December, sometimes later, but I’m putting it up this weekend instead this year. There’s a lights and illuminations ceremony thing where I live but I’m too anxious of crowds and can’t stand for ages so figured I’d get into the spirit and do a family version instead!

Mince pies, mulled wine and some yummy warm food… Christmas tunes on and decorating the lounge :)

justaddcandlelight · 23/11/2021 16:09

We have a real tree, it won't be going up for a while yet. I'm not feeling particularly festive yet. I have started a bit of shopping though.

KurtWildesChristmasNamechange · 23/11/2021 16:21

Yep ours has been up since last week.

KurtWildesChristmasNamechange · 23/11/2021 16:21

Yep ours has been up since last week.

Frymetothemoon · 23/11/2021 16:27

Nope, it's November! And since we get a real one, it would be dead by Christmas if we did.

maofteens · 23/11/2021 16:42

@Poppins17 I hope you aren't the house behind mine with flashing white and blue lights!
We have plans to go cut ours down the first weekend in December. But we are doing a Christmas wreath workshop on the 1st so will hang that up beforehand. Can't do it in November- I'd be sick of it by Christmas (plus I have two new kittens and I'm already stressed about them and the tree)!!

RestingStitchFace · 23/11/2021 16:42

Ours usually goes up the 1st Saturday in Dec. But DS has got a birthday party that day so may sneak it up a couple of days earlier.

BorisKilledMyHusband · 23/11/2021 16:43

No. it's November you loons

WaterAndRichTea · 23/11/2021 16:44

No but i am going to clean the cooker this weekend and wrap some presents 🙃
