As Christmas is vastly approaching, when is the best time to erect a tree and decorate it?
From a very small age I was constantly told it was 12 days before Christmas Day however over the years trees have been erected much earlier. I did hear someone say “now it’s November we can put the tree up”.
Would like to know different views on this. Feel free to comment 🎄
Usually when it falls on a decent time at the weekend is good for me, so looking at the calendar for this year I reckon I will put mines up on Friday the 8th of December. November is a bit extreme, but there are no rules :)
Unless you have kids , why bother ?
You don’t need children to enjoy Xmas and have some decorations up

But to me, Christmas is Christmas, and November ain’t Christmas, and October ain’t Christmas, and September ain’t Christmas.
Stick the bleeding tree up in December, preferably after the 12th.
I never get my mince pies until the 19th.
Grrrrrr. Humbug!
We will put ours up around the 8/12 so the grandkids can see it and know its almost that time of year
Mine usually go up 12 days before and stay up 12 days after but im not sure if i can be bothered this year its just been a bad time recently and im not sure we are in the mood for Christmas but i will go with how we feel nearer the time
Maybe Martin can do a discount for new members seeing as its Noel. I think 39p BLACK FRIDAY so we can stock up on kamikaze accounts to alienate any new users.
Bah
Christmas tree’s before December is chavvy
I do dec’s about 2 weeks ish before the day, depending on having a couple of days off together to do it, and its all down as soon after New Year as poss….. however fairy lights aren’t just for Christmas , no sirree bob, They are lovely All Year ! 
I always used to put my tree and decs up beginning of November for my kids. I would take my tree down day after boxing day as I was totally sick of it all by then.
I don’t have young kids now so I wont be putting up any tree or decorations unless my grandson comes up obvs.
I think you should put them up when you feel like it :)
