I don't, other than Christmas. And even then, I don't want to put anything out until 2 weeks, at the most, before Christmas. It's not that I'm cranky; I just don't see the need to buy all of that extra stuff and clutter up the house with it. I assure you that I'm only mentioning MY preferences. I don't find it objectionable at all when I visit other people's houses that do lots of holiday decorating.

At work, mostly.

Not so much at home.

I will adjust some things for the season — centerpiece, front door, mantle — but I don’t decorate like I did when the kids lived at home, or we entertained more. But also, I wasn’t in the mood for a few years. Life is a little lighter now, so I’m starting to move that way again. Not necessarily for a holiday, but for a season, and slip holiday things in when it’s time.

I used to decorate like you, Annegriet, but that was when our kids were still in school. Now that we’re retired, with no grands as yet, i still go all out for Christmas. But, although I put out a nice array for Halloween, Thanksgiving, Valentines, and Easter just get a special table centerpiece. DH gets frustrated sometimes, though, seeing all those other holiday decoration boxes that I still have saved for our someday grandkids. Their parents will get them, though😉!

Oh, Kath made me remember, i put up Fall decs, too. My favorite season!

I used to decorate for every holiday but have cut way back. I was just wondering today what should go on the front door. I still have a winter wreath up but Im tired of it and other than St. Paddys day I dont know what to use. Seems as though we are between seasons

I do love to see a home all decked out especially for major holidays..

I do for Halloween and Christmas. Sometimes Thanksgiving but it's basically a Fall wreath and maybe some type of centerpeice.

Only Halloween, and then not always. Sometimes we put up Kwanzaa decorations. I put up only very minimal Christmas decorations, such as cards that I receive and maybe a couple of balls.

Have lots of Christmas decorations I put out, a number of Easter bunnies, a few for Halloween and Valentines day.

I've cut back to Christmas, Halloween a little, and some Easter. I don't feel the need to dress the house and entry for Valentines Day, St Patricks Day like I used to. I did have my Christmas things out for a good 6 weeks this year (beginning with Thanksgiving weekend not before) and we enjoyed them. I've paired things down to those most impressive (expensive 😁), not feeling the need to put out those more childish any longer - they stay in memory box and I do have more storage space than I really need.

I'm decorating myself for Easter a bit if that counts. Johnny Was is having a wonderful sale with code Leapyear and I have their very pretty white (shell) Nola blouse coming to wear with black pants or black skirt, leather booties for Easter lunch. We haven't gathered as a family since preCovid for Easter - DH and I had only spent it with my mother, just the three of us - and my nephew and his wife are pushing for a lunch this year.

But if you are enjoying the decorating, I say go for it. I'd love to come to your house and enjoy your efforts.

I decorate the most for Christmas. When that comes down a little Mardi Gras goes up -- mostly lights. Now I have a few little rabbits on the kitchen windowsill and another on the hutch with a small basket of eggs. After Easter that'll be it until October when I decorate for fall with orange lights, pumpkins and a door wreath.

I never have, but I do enjoy seeing it in other's homes. My mom did not and actually no one I knew growing up did so I'm not rebelling :).

I used to do a wreath on the front door for each holiday with more generic season-themed ones hanging there in between holidays, but I left all my wreaths behind when I moved this time. I left a lot of holiday decor behind as well. I did bring some Easter-themed items, so I might put something out for Easter, but I don’t think I will decorate for any other holiday other than Christmas in 2024. I’ll leave the Easter pieces out for the month of March. I generally leave Christmas items out for the month of December.

I still plan to change out throws and throw pillows and bedding components when warmer weather hits, so seasonal changes, not holiday-related changes.

I don't decorate anymore. Not that I'm a Scrooge. It's just that with six cats, there are too many opinions as to how decorating should be handled. To them, everything's a toy rather than a decoration. We're fine with that. The cats bring us more joy than floof does.

Yes, all. Just had load in for March today. I am a festive person.

I decorate only for Christmas and Halloween. All Xmas is gone from inside the house before New Year's day but the evergreen wreath with fruit and berries remains till March 1 which is meteorologically spring. I have some sweet antique rabbits that are always out in an upstairs room so I don't call that decorating for Easter. Compared to many people these days, my decorations are way low key.

My wife - mostly not and me, not at all. That's how I like it.

I do for Halloween and Christmas. Much of my Halloween decor can carry over for Thanksgiving (pumpkins last a long time!). It’s more subdued for V-Day, Easter and July 4th.

YES!!!

At work anyway. I decorate for the big ones. Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas. And I go ALL out. For Halloween and Christmas anyway. Thanksgiving, I do the most I can. My goal is to not leave an inch undecorated, and I mean that seriously. The ceiling, the floor, the walls, everything gets decorated. I change the clocks, the pens, the mousepad, our dry erase board for announcements, the hand soap in the bathroom, the post it notes, everything. Every detail matters. Its gotten sort of ridiculous over the years. But people I work with and the truckers who come through truly look forward to it and enjoy it. And I enjoy my reputation as the sort of Festive Fairy. For Valentines Day and Easter I do not decorate there, but I do ALWAYS have appropriately festive treats for everyone, and I present them in festive bowls. After the Easter treats are gone, I have a break from my festive fairy duties until Halloween. I do not enjoy hot weather or the holidays that are scheduled during such a time.

I also make sure to decorate myself. A spare bedroom in my home stores my holiday apparel and accessories. I have clothes for Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Valentines Day, St. Patricks day and Easter. I have enough outfits that I never have to repeat one during the months of said holidays. My Christmas shoe collection alone is very impressive. Its taken me years to acquire this special wardrobe, and I am always expanding it, and I am very proud of it. I JUST ordered a new Easter dress and leggings to wear to work this year. After all, the festive fairy must look the part.

At home, not so much. At Christmas I put up a tree and I have some 20 foot tall inflatables I put in the yard. And I change our everyday items out for every holiday that I like. Our sheets and comforter, towels, plates, bowls, utensils, etc. I have Christmas, Halloween, Thanksgiving and Valentines Day items in all these categories and enjoy them. I have Easter sheets and thats it. Easter was always such a big ordeal growing up in a Catholic household, I just do not do very much for it, though there were a lot of very fond memories of Easter too. I do not do anything else for Halloween, as we do not have trick or treaters, or Thanksgiving. Just the household items I mentioned.

2 weeks before Christmas I put a holly wreath on the front door. A few days before Christmas the (real) tree goes up. I also do a (real) foliage garland and a spring of mistletoe over the hall doorway. That's it. It all comes down 12th night and I don't do any of it except the door wreath if we're away over Christmas.

I don't class any other dates as 'holidays' that need decorations and I especially loath the commercialisation of Halloween which barely existed at all when I was a kid. It's been imported for commercial reasons imo.

The only holiday would be Halloween. It tends to fill the living room. But I have a village collection and miniatures that sees rotation year round. I do more seasons and some vignettes. After Halloween there tends to be some Autumn action, beer festing, food vendors. Winter is a season, sometimes there is Christmas on the holiday, sometimes I forget Santa. There is usually a ski resort, lots of kids playing in the snow, winter shops. Spring is a season of outdoor things, gardens, fairytale villages and stories. Summer gets a parade with floats, a band, and a carnival at the end.. there's usually an old world or two in there somewhere between seasons. Right now in the nook is a dozen merchants of things like distillery, lantern shop, tea shop. Testing out some new lights I got after Christmas clearance.

Depends what you call decorating--covering every surface with schtuff or putting out one themed figurine.........

New Years

Birthdays/Anniversary

Valentines Day

Purim

Passover

Fourth of July

Rosh Hashana

Halloween

Thanksgiving

Hanukkah

Winter snowmen

Yes I do decorate for holidays. Mostly I put out a wreath and inside some kind of Garland. I also dress up my balcony skeletons. I am just finishing up Valentine's Day and the next thing will be St Patrick's Day. I have unraveled my Garland for the inside for St Patrick's day.

Rho--I hear you and I am probably on the TOO MUCH side of decorating. It started when I no longer had bulletin boards to swap out. I'm also a collector so the two impulses collided. I now have a spoon rest for every month, a door wreath for all the seasons, a candy 'catch all jar' for all holidays etc. I also think it keeps me from the urge to shop for new houses, new furniture, etc. I don't wake to the same ole same ole for months on end. About the time I'm over it --it's time to swap it out.

this is the extent of my holiday decorations. since my husband passed away 16 years ago, holidays just aren't the same. this lamp used to come out only during Christmas but after gary died, i brought it out to my family room. it's a major award!! 🤣

Only for the Shopping Season and that only at a bare minimum. I did one do some this past year, but sure it will be the last. I just have a little ceramic tree and that just gives a nice little light and color to the credenza and thats it. No other holidays. I dont get the enthusiasim that people have for it. I cant stand clutter and that would be clutter, to me.

This will be out again for Easter on a front entry table.

Clutter vs homey feeling one gets when one enters a space is in the eye of the beholder for sure.

This wall is going to have plates on it--no reason not to switch it up to my way of thinking!! It's not always perfectly balance but then neither am I!! hahahahah

Put my bunny decorative pillow on the bed for my Easter decorating.
