and then take them back down?
i tend to put them up just over a week before and take them down boxing day, or maybe few days after depending if i can be bothered!

Prob a week before and a couple of days after, they're getting on my nerves by then.

Christmas Decorations Date

I use a fake tree since half of the family has allergies so I can put mine up early, usually the day/weekend after Thanksgiving depending on how many decorations I put up or how long it takes me to untangle the christmas tree lights lol. I take it down usually the 26th. With three kids, by that time the tree is looking rough and I am so sick of everything being in my way. Plus it's easier to make sure the kids put all their new stuff away lol.
Either way you do it, christmas isn't a time for stressing, it's a time for blessing so Merry Christmas to you and your family.

Traditionally, you're supposed to put up just advent decorations (calendar and an advent triangle in the window) on 1st December and then the 'real' decorations a few days before Xmas - we usually do it on Christmas Eve while we listen to Carols from Kings on the radio. Nothing like tinsel, baubles and good singing to get you in the right frame of mind!
As to taking them down again, the 'proper' time to do it is on Twelfth Night - i.e. leave the Christmas decorations up for the full duration of the twelve days of Christmas and take them down before midnignt on 6th January.
Superstition used to say that if they're not down by then, you have to leave them until Easter - the Victorians had some strange ideas...

Las Vegas is really a town that's anything for everyone therefore find it with hotelbye . Las Vegas is a town with good attractions and one particular is the popular Las Vegas Strip; the place where tourists can enjoy a go in the hot leave morning, or take a stroll downtown and view a dazzling light reveal that spans a whole street, the Fremont Street Experience. Readers may also get a view of remarkable world famous re-creations like erupting volcanoes, the Eiffel Tower and the Sphinx of Egypt facing the different lodges and casinos. Las Vegas is just a town that continuously reinvents itself, so even although you have been here before you will never run out of fun what to do.

Bah humbug, wheres your Christmas spirit.
I put my lights up on the house on the 1st of December, then me and my family get together on Christmas eve and put up the Christmas tree and decorate it. I'd put it up earlier except I have a cat and she loves to sit at the top of the tree with the angel so its not a good idea.
I usually take the decorations down around the 2nd of Jan.
Christmas is the time to make an effort its about coming together and being with family. Its not a time for the can't be bothered attitude.

Depending on when Christmas is every year, i usually put them up the weekend before Christmas but if Christmas was on a Monday or Tuesday then the weekend before that! and take them down after 12th night.

We also put them up the first sunday in December and take them down the day after the New year holiday..it makes the Christmas/new Year holiday spirit last for what seems ages.

im going to put them up on sunday the 3rd this year because thats the day my partner will be back (hes having radioiodine treatment and we kids so hes had to move out for a few weeks), and i usually take them down 2 days after boxing day because the tree just doesnt look the same when all the presents have gone!

i put my decorations up around a week before and i take them down on the 1st of january as it's not the christmas month anymore. i don't put them up before a week or so before christmas as they can get boring and they are only meant to be up for one certain day if u think about it! hehe.
