We take down the decorations around the 30th because our son's birthday is the 3rd, so it's important to us to make sure he feels like we're focused on him on that day!
We're big into celebrating all 12 days of Christmas, so we take most of them down after the 12th day of Christmas (Jan. 6), but we might just leave a nativity up and candles in the windows until Feb. 2, a feast in the Catholic Church called Candlemas.
After trying to throw Christmas parties and having people not be able to come due to other engagements, we moved our Christmas party to the Saturday before Martin Luther King day. We call it "Our Tree Is Still Up" Party. We have a great time and then take the tree down.

I always keep mine up way too long. At least until mid-January. I hate saying goodbye to the Holiday season and really need the light amongst the winter darkness.
The earliest I take down the decorations is after Twelfth Night, so not before January 6. Of course I'm an old fogey and don't decorate until right before Christmas.
This year, because I put my decorations up on Christmas Eve, I'm gonna leave them up till around Groundhog Day. Next year, though, I want to put them up earlier and take them down mid-January.

I would have taken them down on the 26th, but I had company coming on the 27th. As soon as they left, I put everything away. I decorate Thanksgiving weekend, so I'm tired of them by then. Happy New Year!
I actually took it all down today, Dec 30th. I do not have a particular set day for it, but in truth I don't have many decorations. I have about 5 or 6 decorations I set out on the shelves as well as a small pre-lit fake tree. Took me about 5 min to re-pack for next year. Consider it DONE!
Christmas decorations are beautiful and inspiring. I am going to take the tree and the rest of the indoor decor down sometime in January. But I may leave up one small strand of indoor lights until Valentine's Day because they are so pretty!

I take the decorations down as soon as I get my first chance after New Years Day. Thanks for the chance to win this!
I take my decorations down on January 1st.
Weekend after new years!
Although I'd love to keep holiday decorations up as long as possible, they are out by January 1st. New year = a fresh start and a clean house!

The tweet I put in the Rafflecopter was accidently deleted, Here is my tweet: https://twitter.com/bbdream34/status/550074316302598145.
We don't have a particular date to date down our decorations. Usually, it's a day or two after New Years :)
Usually I take them down on or after January 1st, but this year I started early, on December 29th.

After epiphany, usually the second weekend in January.
I took down decorations on the 26th but only because we're moving soon. I usually wait until New Year's.

In January, to celebrate Russian Christmas.

All holiday decorations are removed promptly on January 2.
I take our decorations down the day after Christmas or as soon as I can. I like my house looking clean as soon as I can.

We don’t decorate until a week or two before Christmas, so the stuff stays up at least until Epiphany, January 6.
