Washington, DC USA Probably in another week or so. One year my daughter and I were alone and decided to leave everything (indoors) up for about a month! It was great and really helped move the winter months along and keep them cheery! Fisch, 46

Dallas, TX USA It is New Year's Day and as I write this, the holiday dishes and glasses are already packed and in the attic. The tree is down and my husband is vacuuming the floor as I type this. I have a huge bay window that I decorate. The garland swags and decorations I leave up for another week or so, then I decorate for Valentines Day and my kids Feb birthday. I'll leave the nativity up til Kings Day, Jan 6th and I'll take down that and some more of the decorations. The wreaths on the doors stay up for another 2-3 weeks. Janet, 44

Ocean City, NJ USA Well, usually I don't take them down until after New Year's Day. But the day after Christmas, I got bored and took the stuff off the tree and put away the decorations. But the tree is still up, so I've got a naked tree in my living room. My cat likes it, but I really need to take that down. Or maybe I'll leave it up and make a Valentine's day tree out of it. That's what my sister does. I doubt it, I'll probably take it down one day when I get bored again. Jaden, 21
