When do you start decorating for Christmas? 🎄❄️

@RagnerTheHiker, I don’t decorate for the holidays myself, but there’s a house less than ten miles from where I live that keeps its Christmas decorations up all year long. The only thing missing is the Christmas tree—until Halloween passes. Then, one appears in their side window and stays up until after New Year’s.

Have a blessed day, take care, and GOD bless.

P.S. And yes, I do love the Christmas Holiday, I just don't decorate for it. I have my reasons as to why I don't.

I just put up a Christmas tree yesterday and for years I have been putting it up after Thanksgiving. I am so ready for the festivities of the season!!! 🎉

@MOHLovesAlaska I have not ever seen anyone have their decorations up all year. It must be something to enjoy during the holidays.

I’m right there with you, @RagnerTheHiker — decorating early just makes everything feel brighter and more festive. For me, it’s all about finding joy in those simple moments. 🌲✨

My sister's mother in law keeps her Christmas tree up year round. She decorates it for different holidays (Easter, 4th of July, etc). She's pretty crafty and enjoys all things decor, @MOHLovesAlaska.

@AlyssaPandora, I’d love to see how she pulls off those transformations—shamrocks for St. Patrick’s Day, fireworks for the 4th, cobwebs for Halloween… It’s like the tree has its own personality! Such a creative twist on tradition. Does she have a favorite holiday look?"

Have a blessed day, dear friend. Take care, and GOD bless.

I have an uncle who left his tree up all year long as well.

I usually put up the Christmas decorations starting in late November.

However, almost all the houses in my neighborhood are already decorated now 🎄

Now I'll have to decorate my house or I'll look like the Grinch 😅

I wait until December, because I like the Thanksgiving/Fall decoration for November! 🍂 I've already seen so many Christmas decorations up - it does look festive.

@HunterPandora @TannerPandora The same is happening in my neighborhood. I'm also waiting until December to start decorating, but some of of my neighbors already have decorated their houses.

We started decorating last week!

All we need is our tree, which we plan on getting soon. 😌🎄
