Thanksgiving is a day (a glorious one),
Christmas is a season. I can still enjoy my turkey and yams with a cozy Christmas tree lit in the corner

Dec 1st or even later for celebrating Santa and related aspects. The more about consumerism something is the later it can be.
Anything actually celebrating or worshipping Jesus can be placed all year round.

By that metric, it would be after Labor Day when they turn the Garden Center into the Christmas area. Plus good luck finding the pool chemicals and other outdoor pesticides, herbicides, and equipment by either moving it outside or clearancing it out till next year.

Whatever day we want. Ours are going up this weekend. I do most of it and I works offshore so I get to enjoy it half as much as the rest of you so I put it up twice as early 
Works out like most of you are saying this year for us anyway. Schedule fricked me this year so we are having to do Thanksgiving this weekend. So TECHNICALY it WILL be after Thanksgiving at our house.

We travel for Thanksgiving every year so normally the first weekend in December, but with thanksgiving the last weekend in November, we may put them up before we leave. Save the tree for afterwards, but get everything else up so we can enjoy the season a little more.

Saturday after Thanksgiving and It will take two days.
Takedown begins 12/26 with outside decorations and occur in stages until Epiphany. The big tree will come down January 7.

I told my wife...Christmas decorations can go up as soon as she wants. We'll be traveling for both thanksgiving and Christmas this year and ...no need to wait till we get back on Nov 30 to only see them till we leave 3 wks later (for 9 days)

I have a feeling that the answer to this question is directly related to how long it takes you to decorate.
Day after Thanksgiving until Weekend after New Years or so. I like Christmas and all the decorations, but 4-6 weeks is about my limit. Also, it only takes us about 2-3 hours total to decorate, so I don't feel like I wasted a bunch of time for just a few weeks per year.

I usually put my tree and decorations up the day after Thanksgiving with Christmas Vacation playing in the background

We compromise on mid November but I have a very busy December so I don't mind. It gives me a couple of weeks in late November to enjoy the holidays before I'm buried in work.

What gets me is that there are 3 big-boy holidays in the last 3 months of the year, all of which take place at the end of each month. It seems like it'd work out perfectly to do:
October 1- put up all your halloween stuff
November 1- switch out for all your thanksgiving stuff
December 1- switch out for all your christmas stuff
let each month have its own place. Putting up Christmas stuff in october is just insane

I’m fine with pulling the holiday decorations out from the attic or basement on Thanksgiving evening. They can start being put up in Black Friday.
Posted on 11/4/24 at 9:13 am to lsufan9193969700
We will probably put ours up this weekend and get a tree the first weekend they start putting them out. Judge away but if it makes you happy who cares what anyone else thinks??

Weekend before Thanksgiving I usually start.
