I start to decorate for Fall on August 31st. I keep my Fall decor up until October 31st., & then I put up my Christmas decor. Our kids are grown now & they have gotten used to the fact of having our Christmas tree up at Thanksgiving! 😊 In our area here in Texas, you have to purchase Christmas decor when they are first putting it out in the stores especially at Hobby Lobby. The merchandise goes quick! I had an associate at Hobby Lobby tell me last year while I was shopping in the store, “ if you see it & want it, you better buy it because odds are it won’t be here when you come back .“ 😂 She was right. Loved the haul & can’t wait to watch you transform your beautiful home for the Christmas holidays! Love you & love your channel. Much ❤& big hugs from Texas!!!
