Before the end of Twelfth Night so before Jan 6th.

I always take mine down on Boxing Day as I like to get back to normal but I think it's at the end of the 12 days, so 5th Jan.

I believe it's 12th night depending on what date you consider to be 12th night of Christmas . Personally, mine all came down today and feel happy to see the rooms look normal again. I think anyone can take them down whenever they feel like it. It's up to you .

I have taken the cards down, and cleaned and stacked the Christmas crockery ready to store away for another year. Trees will all come down tomorow, once I have got up in to the attic and got the boxes back down.

Ours came down today as the kids like to help and obviously back to school next week. Just wanted to get back to normal really lol.
The superstition is by the 5th (thurs) tho.
