When to Start Decorating?

Is it too early to start decorating my flat? I bought a really really beautiful wreath and some new decorations and I want to see them up!! NOW!

When do you all start hanging your decorations up? :confused:

    I used to put ours up between 2-5 Dec (sons and late mams birthdays) but noticed the last few years they started to get on my nerves before the big day arrived so put them up around the 15th now - I could never put them up in November I'd be chomping at the bit to get them down :D If you want to put them up now then do it, it's no biggie :confused:

    Mine are going up tomorrow night, so when we get up on the 1st December, its all ready!!!!
  • OH said we cant put ours up till the 6th!! party pooper!
    Other women want a boob job. Honey the only silicone i'm interested in is on a 12 cup muffin tray, preferably shaped like little hearts :heart:
  • Mine will be going up the weekend after this one - usually do it first weekend in Dec too but not got time this weekend so will have to wait. Can make a much more fun celebration of it then as will have more time.
    If only I could stop finding good bargains on this site, I would save a fortune! :rotfl:
  • mine have been up for two weeks:xmassign:
  • Thanks - I am going to get up early tomorrow and make a start - I can't wait - hot chocolate, christmas music and decorating! :)
  • I put mine up on 16th December every year - I know someone who only decorates one room and just leaves them up ..ALL YEAR !!!:eek: :rotfl:
    I have had brain surgery - sorry if I am a little confused sometimes ;)
  • I started mine today, unfortunately most of my decorations are at my mums so i won't be putting the main ones up till Friday, at the moment i'm taking a five minute break from decorating the dresser
