    So I was reading on fb today about lots of ppl who have taken down the Christmas tree or are in the midst of it.
    I haven't here yet, but was curious. When do you take your tree and decorations down?

    We took ours down today. I love have that extra space back. Our house is just too small for it to be up for long.

    Ours is staying up until after Epiphany (and probably longer since I hate putting everything away! :giggle).

    I take mine down the week after Christmas usually the day or two after. I hate clutter!

    Ours is coming down tomorrow. Would have been earlier, I think but we've been busy soaking up family time and not really in the mood to be organized and such. :)

    We usually wait until the 1st to take ours down, but it had become a fire hazard since DH had forgotten to water it. So it came down last Tuesday. :(

    I usually take ours down around the 28th/29th, I like it gone before new year so that it's a fresh start

    Ours stays up as long as possible - we usually take it down on Jan 6th and then I really miss it :( Christmas is the only time we decorate so I like to make the most of it!

    I'd normally take mine down around the first week in January but we got a 10 week old puppy on Boxing Day who decided he loved my decorations so much that he dismantled the bottom branches for me. So that made me start and I packed the whole thing away on the 27th!
