I see this question so much. I have wondered myself when the correct time is. I for one have not been able to celebrate Christmas for the past 20 years, and this will be my first one. I am SO excited and can barely stand to wait. And then I stopped and thought about it. Why is there a "correct" time? Why do we care so much about what others think? And why do people have such a fit if someone puts their decorations up early? What if that person only had a few weeks to live? No one knows anyone elses circumstances, we shouldnt judge! The correct time is any time we want to. It hurts no one. Life is short. Sometimes far too too short. Put your tree up when you want to. Turn up the Christmas carols and enjoy! Celebrate!

We're a family of 4, moved to a new state recently with no family around. So we're taking the opportunity on Thanksgiving to have some yummy food, and start off the Christmas season by putting up the tree and decorations together. I can hear the kids squealing with delight already! Though with the overcast, rainy weather here lately (Georgia) the feeling of Christmas has already been in the air. We've already brought out the Christmas music a couple times with a candle lit dinner.

An artificial tree ... the weekend before Thanksgiving if your really itching to get it up. For a real tree I wouldn't put it up any earlier then the weekend after Thanksgiving.

Don't wait until Thanksgiving, it's a lot of work and the sooner you start the better it is, in my house the tree is already up, but my sister is taking care of the decoration, it looks great and best of all is we have it before anybody else, don't you think is a good idea?..☺

We put our tree/decorations up the weekend of Thanksgiving. It's very tempting to start earlier, but it's our family tradition.
