When Do You Un-decorate?

It's very known, that within minutes of opening gifts at Christmas, I will begin taking things down, lol.

Halloween - day after, weather-permitting
Thanksgiving - I don't decorate for it, as we never host
Christmas - interior decorations come down on the feast of the Epiphany (the 12th day of Christmas) - exterior decorations come down after all the snow and ice melts & I can get up on the ladder without worrying about falling to my death

My Halloween stuff is already in the attic.
I don't "decorate" for Thanksgiving. I don't hst and we know it's Thanksgiving. LOL
Jan 1st - 3rd us usually my UNdecorating deadline for Christmas.

I only decorate for Christmas. I do it 1st or 2nd week in December. I have a Thing about having the tree up on New Years, but not going into the New Year with last years stuff up, so, I take down the tree on New Years Day.

Halloweeny stuff comes down the day after Halloween and we keep up only Fall themed items. The day after Thanksgiving all the fall stuff comes down and Christmas stuff goes up. Then the Christmas stuff comes down after New Years.

We love decorating for the holidays but I don't like tons of clutter so it is all pretty manageable and simple....but beautiful.

Good luck and best wishes at having a wonderful holiday season!!

Oh Jim, I'm with you!! If my daughter would let me take down the junk as she is opening gifts I would!! Decorations can't go up more than two weeks before Chritmas and I guess I'll survive with Dec. 26th as take down day.

Halloween, today, Thanksgiving, the Friday after, and Christmas, New Year's Day : )

whenever we get around to it. =)

As soon as I'm sick of it! And, when I'm motivated to put up the next round. :)

We went to a Halloween themed birthday party on the 15th of Oct. and since then I've felt the whole thing was drug out. SO SICK OF IT! We were traveling out of town over this past weekend, so I took down most of it before we left (last Friday). Left up the fall decor.

I take the Halloween stuff down the day after Halloween and leave the fall looking items. Fall items go down whenever it's starts looking wintery or the last day of November. Tree and x-mas decorations go up on December 1 then goes down on January 1.

Usually Halloween it's the next day. I hurt my back so it will be Saturday when my husband is home from his business trip. Thanksgiving comes down when ever I decide to put up Christmas Decorations, but most of my Thanksgiving decorations are inside with the exception of a weath. Christmas Decorations is whenever it's not freezing out, and for me freezing is below 50.

well we had all of our halloween traditions postponed up here, so no one in the area is even trick or treating till sunday nov 6th (ugh)... so day after that halloween comes down... then some fall stuff stays up for thanksgiving, and xmas goes up weekend after thanksgiving till day after new years eve :)

Halloween - Nov. 1st only the "spooky" stuff comes down. Pumpkins, fall decor stays
Thanksgiving - usually the Saturday after I pack it all up
Christmas - not until after New Years

My Halloween decor has been up since the 2nd week in September because my 4 year old son is a Halloween freak. I am very tired of looking at skeletons and ghosts all over my house, so when he left for school, they all came down. :) ha ha

Halloween the day after (although much of my stuff also doubles as Thanksgiving, because it's "autumn" not just Halloween).

Thanksgiving: we put away Thanksgiving / Autumn stuff the day after Thanksgiving and start putting up Christmas the same day. My husband usually starts working on this alone because I'm always either Black Friday shopping or Black Friday working if I have a part time job. I'm home and take a nap at the same time the boys do, and then we all wake up and continue / finish Christmas stuff together.

Christmas: I don't take the decorations away until January 1 or 2, depending on if I have a brunch or dinner with guests planned on the 1st.

Halloween - that night

Thanksgiving - I don't really do Thanksgiving decor but I change out my outdoor autumn decor (door wreath, scarecrow, bales of hay) the day after Thanksgiving because that's when I start the outdoor Christmas stuff

Christmas - outdoor decorations are up the day after Thanksgiving and down ASAP after Christmas. Because snow and ice are factors, the first day that it's warm and dry enough to safely get up on a ladder and the roof might be 12/26 or as late as the end of February, which happened last year. I leave the greens all winter and I change the bows on my wreaths to Valentine's day ones at the end of January.

Indoors I don't do the tree until at most 2 weeks before Christmas and do very minimal indoor decorations (husband is Jewish) and have them down right after New Year's day. I love a bright, clean house in January.

Halloween- already done
Thanksgiving- don't have any
Christmas- I wait till new years day.

I have very few Halloween items and those get put away the weekend of/after Halloween. Most of my decorations are "fall" decor and stay up until the day after Thanksgiving when I put them away and put up the tree and decorate for Christmas. Christmas decor comes down New Year's day/wknd.

coming down this weekend!

Ugh...why did you have to remind me. LOL

I leave the 'Thanksgivingish' stuff up and take down the Halloween stuff...probably this weekend.

Thanksgiving....when I get ready to decorate for Christmas

Christmas....a week - 2 weeks after

Halloween has snuck up on my the last couple of years, but today I went and got some great deals on stuff for next year. We don't do much in the way of Thanksgiving stuff...just normal fall stuff, that we take down the day after and put up the Christmas stuff. I'm normally happy to take down the Christmas stuff the day after. As much as I love it, it's nice to get my house back!

Most of my stuff will come down today or tomorrow when I get the energy, but usually it would already be put away. But like you, a lot of it doubles as Thanksgiving decor, just pretty pumpkins/gourds and the like. Thanksgiving comes down the day after Thanksgiving and that is when Christmas starts to go up. I usually take Christmas stuff down around New Years Eve :)

Halloween, unless you count the lantern I hang outside, I don't decorate for it (LOL!)
Thanksgiving/Fall - Week of T-giving . . . we travel for holiday and I don't want to come back and take what little I do do down - I'd rather spend my time decoratingn tree/house with the family for. . . .
Christmas!!! - take down by Jan 5 or the weekend after new year's - the very latest. I love Christmas and snow men and trees and stockings AHH I can smell the pine and cranberry now
