Ours along with all inside decorations are all put away for next year. We got a bigger tree this year, so have to figure out where it's home in storeage will be. Outdoor lights are still up as neither of us had the gumption to take them down today.

We got the live tree down last night.  We usually have everything back to normal by the end of the third day, but DH has had the virus.

Our "regular" size tree is now up in the attic until next year.  We have a couple of slim tinsel Christmas trees (one champagne, one silver) that are still up.  Both are decorated with birds ~ I keep thinking I need to take the silver one down but it looks so pretty I hate to do so.  I'm actually thinking of leaving the champagne one out all year with the birds on it!  Then there's the smaller tree we keep in our kitchen year-round.  My husband took all the lights down outside today.  It was pretty nice out (a balmy 40 degrees, lol)!  This year especially I feel kind of bummed that Christmas is over.  I love the lights & the decorations.  Happy New Year!  :-)

Same here.  I want to get a chance to actually enjoy my decorations & tree since I felt so overwhelmed with things to do and company before.

 

Ours will come down next weekend as well.

We had intended to get everything taken down, washed if needed, and put away this weekend.  The outside stuff is down, but that where it ended.  Now it waits until next Sunday afternoon (we'll be out of town overnight on Saturday).  I remember when we were still newlyweds where our tree was still up on Super Bowl Sunday!  At least we aren't that bad anymore.

Yes. At least til Epiphany, per tradition. I relax and enjoy it more AFTER Christmas! I would like to have the lights all winter long, though. I hate taking them down. Our tree is all birds and lights, so I wish I could keep in the corner all the time. In our city p,ace, we do keep tiny white lights on the ficus trees year- round.

Still the holidays and my tree (per my family tradition) and all decorations stay up until the Epiphany, January 6th.  I just love the warm and comforting glow of the multi color lights on the tree, the wreaths and lights around living room picture window.  I live in Alaska and right now we only have about 6 hours of daylight, so the Christmas lights are a cheerful sight.

Took it all down and put back into storage room. This year 

I loved how the decorating turned out, so was sad until I got my other things put back into place. I'm looking for a cute year round tree to put lights in.
