Holiday

Me thinks this is a carefully placed promotion

for QVC's "Christmas in July" craziness.

I doubt Christmas in July needs a promotion. This is a Holiday forum so be prepared to see lots of Christmas in July posts and threads.

I still have Christmas decorations up from last year - mainly angels.  I leave the red Christmas decorations up for Valentine's Day and 4th of July. By that time, I plan to purchase Christmas in July items.  When they arrive, I open them up, and leave some out, because they are too pretty to put away.

I don't think this is sill, at all.

I'm sorry you are getting such nasty responses. The holiday forum was set up so those who want to talk about any holiday at any time of year had a place to do so without being ridiculed. 

Usually the posters here are much more friendly and accepting. 

I follow more than one Facebook page that deals with Christmas and many people never undecorate and some that do start redecorating in the summer, so I don't find your post shocking at all.

I listen to Christmas music online off and on all year too, as well as visit Facebook pages dedicated to the season.

When qvc has Christmas in July, I decorate the coffee table in the family room for a short time while I enjoy the programming. 

I say do what pleases you and your family and post pictures here. Many of us would love to see them.

Thank you so much. I usually read and dont post much. Seeing all the negative responses for asking a question in the appropriate forum is a turn off, but wont keep me from posting 😊

---

Oh boy... So why ask a question if you only want to see responses that agree with you... Appropriate forum or not, people have opinions...

Glad youre getting a kick out of it! However, whats silly to you may not be to others. 

---

No. I'm afraid some things are not relative. There is, in fact, an objective silly factor... Decorating for Christmas in June in the absence of any bona fide reason to do so crosses that line...

---

Everything in life is relative.

---

I guess we disagree... but then what do I know, because I'm also not of the opinion that offering one's divergent point of view is automatically 'bullying'...

Actually, most replies have not been an answer to my question "How early do you decorate?".

They have been judgemental rude comments that show the posters character.

One of my neighbors keeps a tree with just lights in the lanai real round.

They are as pretty in June as they are in December!

I guess I could put a summer tree out.
