Purplemaniacs Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 Took mine down last thing last night as I was the only one at home and needed a job to do before bed, just need to wait for DS to come home tonight to help me get the tree out of the door. Only problem was boxes up in the loft, OH gone back to near Telford for work, I don't do heights, so eveything is in varous odd boxes I could find and some trugs so they will need packing away properly at the weekend Chrissie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The wreath will come off the door later and my wooden candle nativity scene thing will go back in the box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 I usually take mine down straight after my birthday (1st January) but haven't yet found the time this year the recycling collection for the trees isn't until next week, so it will have to lie in the front garden until then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 Hubby shredded ours. Any excuse to use large machinery. It smelt wonderful....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aunty e Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 I'll be taking down my decorations tonight, but we bought a potted tree this year which needs putting into a bigger pot now so that we can use it again next year Probably won't be able to do that until the weekend, but it's on the patio anyway as I couldn't face having a christmas tree and a toddler in the house, and the book says you shouldn't leave babies outside in the winter...

Charlottechicken Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 Took the tree down last night, and a few other Christmas bits and bobs. Lights on front of house came down today and the wreath is off the door. Plenty of room in the window now, the light can get in again!
