The fake tree and decorations get put away this weekend.

<p>I'd say you should remove them during an off day most people get sometime after Christmas day, but maybe that's just me.</p><p>I keep christmas lights up in my room for soft light all year.</p>

the tree came down on monday.&nbsp; along with all the other stuff.&nbsp; Moe, i have lights that go along the bottom or the rail for my terrace.&nbsp; i love that soft light look and feel too.

<p>There is a reason why they call it the &quot;Twelve Days of Christmas&quot;.&nbsp; The lights go off on January 6th which is The Epiphany or Three Kings Day.</p><p>&nbsp;</p>

I still have them up, but not plugged in. It's really depressing.

my ex boyfriends parents would keep the decorations up all year round.&nbsp; the mother just got to the point where she didnt feel like dealing with it anymore.&nbsp; they had this giatnt room in the front of the house with a big bow window that they never used for anything else aside from housing the christmas tree, so it never really got in the way of anything.&nbsp; it's been about 5 years since we broke up, so i wonder if they are still doing that.

I married a&nbsp;Jew so I don't have to wrestle with such conundrums.
