How long will you leave your Christmas tree up?

I took mine down the morning of the 27th. I feel the same way about it as you do. It's a cluttery mess, and the faster i put it away, the less time i have to look at it! lol. i'm sure that the kids dont like that i took it down already, but oh well! When they are parents they can do what ever they want to do with their own tree! lol.

I will leave my Christmas decorations up until New Years eve hits. That is the time, according to my family, when things need to start coming down, and for the "children" to get back in the swing of things, namely school. Have to love the parents.

I took mine down the Thursday after New Years. That is late for me, but I was trying to keep it up until Jan. 6th (for the epiphany) . But it was losing needles and Thursday was just in time for the trash dept. to take it for recycling. I miss my tree though, it was really pretty!!!!

I wish we could pull ours down immediately or just not put one up in the first place! Ours needed to stay up because we were having post-holiday get togethers with various relatives who couldn't be here on the holiday. Now it's still up because we haven't had the chance to pull it down. Hopefully tomorrow we'll get it boxed up and put away.

if possible,I want to keep it as long as possible.I like its decrations so much,it always reminds me that the christmas day.and everyday,I should have a good mood,just like observing a holiday.

Our tree goes up the day after Thanksgiving. We don't take it down until around the 6th of January. I love having the tree up, and feel sad when we have to take it down and store it back in the basement for the rest of the year.

I don’t celebrate Christmas so I don’t decorate my house with Christmas tree. I share the joy of the grand festival with my friends in their well decorated houses. They usually leave their Christmas tree one week after the new year. Only one of them keeps the tree there by the end of January. It is not worth to display the Christmas tree just for a short period as she had spend lots of time and effort to set up the tree with attractive decoration.

I take mine down on January 6th. In Europe that is the twelvth day of Christs or the holiday of the Three Kings (Magi).

I have to admit that I'm bothered by people who keep their Christmas trees up for weeks after it's over. We just took ours down on Sat. In a way though it kind of bums me out because I really like that cozy glow of the tree lights on a cold winter night.

We moved recently so I haven't finished unpacking so I never put up a tree this year. It's all still packed away. But normally I leave my decorations up till today, January 2. I am glad I don't have any to take down because I have enough other house work to do, since I had company for the last 10 days. As much as I love the Christmas season I am glad it's over. Maybe now things can get back to normal.

I know it's a little late but my tree goes up on Christmas Eve and down on New Years Day. It's been a tradition since I was a little girl and my kids don't mind. This year we got it up just in time since we just moved to Arizona from Virginia around the holidays.
