I pack everything up, except for a wintry looking snowman that doesn't have Christmas colours on January 6th. I pack away that special snowman on the last day of January.

When do you pack your decorations?

Whenever I get sick of the tree taking up space. I would have packed it up by now, but I didn't have my kids for Christmas this year and they had some gifts under it.

I'll likely pack it up once they're gone on Monday, or perhaps Tuesday.

The day after. Our 10' tall tree is currently in the front lawn, waiting for the boy scout troop that will come pick it up in January. My step-dad just took off the Christmas lights outside.

I have trouble with this, so I've learned not to put too much out in the first place. The nativity set is packed away before New Year's; most everything else comes down on or just after New Year's Day, except the tree, which, being artificial, may almost make it to Valentine's Day.

Everything stays up/on till Jan 6th. But I usually undecorate everything on the first convenient day after the 6th, meaning the weekend that follows it.
