How long do you leave holiday decorations up?

(1/5) > >>

Lisbeth:
This is something I'm curious about because I've seen holiday decorations up as late as March...

I think usually people put them up during Thanksgiving weekend and take them down sometime in January, but people have used other time frames as well.

Gwywnnydd:
My decorations went up mid-December (family tradition was the weekend closest to the 15th), and will come down in the first week in January.

FoxPaws:
Mine start coming down on New Year's day or the day after. It takes anywhere from a few days to a week. I collect ornaments and am finicky about the way they are wrapped and stored.

Last year the apartment management sent out a letter giving people a deadline for removing their outdoor and window decorations. I had no problem with this, as by mid-January time and weather have made a lot of that stuff look pretty faded and sad.

Alida:
Mine will come down mid-January, when my husband is back home again  (I think he's due home on the 10th or 11th, but I haven't checked his schedule yet *G*).

DaeOne:
January 6th, the Ephipany.
