It's no nearer to two weeks than it is three, so why say two weeks rather than three?
Anyway, it's still too early.
Well if you consider Christmas Eve as part of the main bit, then actually it is, just, closer to 2 weeks. Anyway it really ISN'T too early as the build up is part of the whole experience
There are 2 and a half weeks to go, we wont buy ours until Friday, then I may put it up next weekend, surely it will be needleless if it was put up any earlier??
Yes ours is up, love Christmas having grandchildren coming here makes us do things. The family will Christmas Eve and go home Boxing Day. Love love Christmas
Am awaiting biopsy results, basically wanted to put a bit of cheer in the house while we going through this tough time and because well life is too short, I love xmas

I am celebrating early too, this morning I had half a box of matchmakers for breakfast
1st December here and while I was about to get the decorations on it decided to give up and fall on me. It also took a big chunk out a gold santa ornament which lights up.
Mine is up. Always have it up on December 1st now. Usually take it down again just after New Years. For the effort and cost of putting it up I want to make the most of it.
Disappointed that no-one has put a photo on of their tree!
I haven't got one, I won't be at home for Christmas, but I'm tempted to get one of those twigmas trees with lights on and leave it up all year round. I love fairy lights.
Will do mine next Saturday as my daughter has a playdate at her friend's house, so I can take the time to do it in peace and she will have the pleasure of being surprised, as I told her it'd be going up on the 17th
ETA: Should I say, I shall have the pleasure of her surprise
I don't put one up as I don't see this as my home, which I am furthermore reminded by the fact that everyone else in my street puts theirs up way too early and takes them down way too late. Even when my parents go and my sisters decide that I am not their brother, if they haven't alerady done so, I still doubt I'll put one up.

GREAT idea....can w have a pictures thread? Is it allowed? I love being nosy and seeing peoples ideas! :
This month cant go soon enough. It is really depressing that christmas decorations are going up. That isnt going to be the case for me because mam has got chemo for the next four tuesdays so it isnt worth put any decorations up.
