For as long as I can remember, which is getting shorter and shorter, the question has been, ‘when do you take down the Christmas tree?’ There are those that think it should stay up until after New Year’s. Others seem to go with the day after Christmas.
I suggest that if it is a live tree, the sooner the better. No matter what you do, trees dry out and each day become more of a fire hazard. So that leaves us with artificial trees.
Artificial trees take the same amount of time as live ones to remove all the ornaments and stuff so that’s a wash, but then you have to take them apart and put them in a box or bag and store them in the attic or somewhere. If your wife put up the tree, decorated the tree, then she should be the one that decides when the tree comes down. If you have to help I have a suggestion.
Put a sheet over it and take it off next year.
Same goes for outside lights and decorations.
