I thought this was kind of funny. This morning on Carolyn Gracie's VPH show, she said that Fall is the longest decorating season. Later, on a different show, Sharon Faetsch said it's the shortest one. LOL. Who to believe?

Don't believe the hosts they all tell shall we say , "half truths" to sell everything. I have started taking everything on these shopping channels with a grain of salt. After 30 years how much can we believe?

Statements like that go in one ear, out the other. I don't pay attention to comments like that. I know what I know and I don't have to believe what one host says as opposed to another. It's basically nonsense.

IMO its the longest since the fall decor can be left up until the Christmas stuff is put up, basically Sept thru Nov.

I had to laugh, or should I say roll my eyes, when during the presentation of Laurie Felts TSV jeans, Sharon said , "you don't have to pay over $100 dollars for a denim piece of clothing." The item before that was the denim shirt that was $129 and supposedly that was a deal.

Whatever.........

They yak and say whatever in order to fill the time and to sell whatever they're showing.... no more, no less.....

In my opinion there is no right or wrong answer....................each of us should begin decorating for fall when we feel the urge.

Carolyn's case ~ possibly she starts early and leaves her items out until as close to winter and she can.

Sharon's case ~ holding on to summer may be her gaol, therefore, allowing only a small window of time for fall decor, before the snowmen come out.

"Who to believe?" ~~~~~~ Do what makes you happy : )

It all depends on their life style they can both be correct to me

No big deal. Just a matter of interpretation. Hardly a lie or 'half-truth'.

If you think 'Fall' includes Halloween and Thanksgiving, then it could be the longest like Carolyn said.

If you think 'Fall' does NOT including ghosts and goblins or turkeys and cornacopias, and is its own separate 'season', then I agree with Sharon.

I don't view either host as spewing out babble just for a sales pitch. I think that is probably exactly what each one really believes!

Just filling time, that's why some sing, talk about their pets, ramble on about their relatives, their last vacation, etc.

Let's put them both - Carolyn and Sharon - in the same room and let them hash it out.

Well let's see, I usually decorate for Halloween Oct 8th or so, or it doesn't pay to do all that work for just a week or so.I put my Halloween stuff away Nov.1st. All Saints Day and start decorating for Thanksgiving the next day. I start decorating for Christmas one week after Thanksgiving and leave the Christmas decorations up until January 7th or 8th. Looks like for me, it's about the same length of time for Fall and XMAS. I really could care less what the hosts say.

I actually believe that what Carolyn said is true....you can keep those decorations up a bit longer...the sad part is......QVC must not believe it because they sell so few fall decorations as compared to the Christmas season offerings and hours donated to selling those decorations....i say bring in more fall season decorations!!

They are both right. Sounds like they have their personal opinion. My opinion is similar to Carolyns.

I would have to agree with Carolyn since SAMS Club has already started lining the shelves with Halloween items!!!

Hosts are wearing sweaters, boots, etc and come January when they talk about how cold it is outdoors they will be wearing sleeveless dresses. Selling fall clothing now I sort of get long sleeves and cardigans but sleeveless in winter always rubs me wrong way.

January is when all the capris come out at QVC.... I know fashion/retail is always a step ahead but come on....even in Texas too early for capris ......

Reasonable minds know to do what is right for you, but bottom line the hosts will say anything to sell. I sit back and really listen sometimes, and it amazes me what comes out of their mouth.
