When is it too early to put Holiday lights/decorations up?

:o You mean decorated Christmas trees? More than one? Let alone 10 + ? *gasp* that's hard to imagine for non-Americans. Anyone else who has more than one decorated Christmas tree?

That's kinda funny. And convenient.

:laugh: Yes--decorated. And some have themes. One is all snowmen. One is all teddy bears. There are green ones, white ones, and one silver one that has one of those color wheels pointed at it. She's very energetic. :) One year the local paper did an article about her and her trees.

wow wee I'd hate to think of the cost of that!

My mother has 4. One is an angel tree. Another is for 'really good ornaments'. Another is themed, different each year and the 4th is traditional American, with ntive american ornaments, etc. These arenot live trees, Penthesilea. However they are not small, either...
It took years to accumulate the decorations. It's always best to buy after the holiday when it all goes on 50-75% off.
We have 1 tree and I make a damned production of it. I have enough ornaments for , uh, several trees. LOL. My wife says I get to do the tree. I have no idea why. I think she's afraid a guy who undecorated a tree 3 times to get it right might get critical....Plus, it took me 2 weeks to FIND the right tree. And know what? I ended up buying the first tree I saw and liked....

I think I would do that, too, if I had the room to store a small, permanently decorated tree, for the time it would save in decorating in the busy holiday season.
