Now that Halloween is over, when do you decorate for Christmas?

I think I will do that this weekend.

I dont have any decorations for Thanksgiving.

Yesterday.

Usually start on Black Friday while shopping on line, of course.

This year I am not hosting Thanksgiving and will be away from home all day Saturday, (including shopping at a Q outlet) so I will start Thanksgiving week. Hopefully I will have finished cleaning the garage and basement by then!

I keep harvest decorations up til the weekend after Thanksgiving....then Christmas !!

I have Christmas decorations up year-round.  I edit, and add, all the time.

I try to incorporate all the themes of each season - the Christmas stuff is not exclusive.

I have tons of decorations for every season...it's been a bit of a problem for me. Ha! Today I will remove all the things that are Halloween related and bring out all my turkeys and such. I absolutely will not decorate for Christmas until Thanksgiving is over. I respect (and love) Thanksgiving too much to do so. LOL!

The first week in December.

I don't know how or why anyone would skip right past Thanksgiving and the remainder of Autumn and go right into Christmas.  As if Thanksgiving means nothing.  Like it's not a great American Holiday to be celebrated.  We enjoy Autumn, we celebrate Thanksgiving.  I don't do any Halloween decorartions; I do fall so the leaves and pumpkings and gourds stay up through Thanksgiving.  I wouldn't serve Thanksgiving dinner with the house in Christmas mode...lol  That would be weird.  We decorate for Christmas the weekend after Thanksgiving and take it down on January 6.   We don't rip it all down on 12/26 the way some people do.  I don't understand that either since the Christmas season lasts through Jan. 6.

I will decorate the Friday after Thanksgiving! I will probably leave it all up until maybe Jan 1st......No longer though, because by then I am tired of it all and want my house back to normal! But I do love to decorate and I love the Christmas atmosphere, but not before Thanksgiving-never before!

I have really nice harvest/ t-day decors that stay up until Dec, then I put my tree up. Thought it was funny (?) that some of the hosts were kind of dressed up for halloween and then seeing a decorated Xmas trees in the background. A little disturbing and really hated it, actually.. They need to wait til October is done, IMO of course.
