Seriously?
I need some rehab.
My Christmas decor is outta control.
It took the better part of today to get it packed away.
I'm embarrassed to say how many boxes it took.
But the colors are so pretty.
So much sparkly shiny!
Is your Christmas packed away yet?
Not packed, will give it another week to look at. Hugs Mary
ReplyDeleteI put mine away, but only because the tree was dead, and I dont like a dry tree. It does look pretty, but I'm sure that was overwhelming!
ReplyDeletewell I too need rehab for my christmas decorations too...what a mess to get put away...I will be happy to finished with the task...yay
ReplyDeleteWe packed up yesterday and let me tell you... ours was just as bad. Took us about 4 hours total, and that didnt even include the outside (but we did take some coffee breaks- hee hee) Good luck and Happy New Year!!!
ReplyDeleteI dont want to take ours down as we have no snow here. I can use all the sparkle I can get! Happy Packing you can do it! :)
ReplyDeleteI packed mine away yesterday.. Mine only took two 30-gallon totes. I've got a ways to go to rival your collection! Love your colors of choice.
ReplyDeleteDon't be so hard on yourself. It took me two days to take it down and now I have 27 buckets full waiting to go into the attic and 6 boxes of ornaments. You are not the only one.

ReplyDeleteYou are not alone Cindy! It takes me about a week to put it all up and a week to pack it back up. Sometimes I think... wow, that's two whole weeks out of my life every year!
ReplyDeleteNope- Nothing packed away here yet! I have to leave it up a couple more days...we have some little visitors coming tomorrow...after that- down it comes~ Happy New Year to you- xo Diana
ReplyDeleteNo, not even close. We were going to do that today, but we're avoiding it. It's a big job.
ReplyDeleteI still have lights and greenery on the mantel, but have had the tree down since this past Friday. I've always been told it's bad luck to have the tree still up on New Year's. Must be a local custom.
ReplyDeleteYours looks way more organized than mine. It took me two days to get mine put away (and I haven't even started putting the regular stuff back out yet) I cant tell you how many boxes I have - I lost count!
ReplyDeleteYes, we packed them all away yesterday. My house looks so empty now, but it's too soon for spring decor!
ReplyDeleteI packed all mine away on New Year's Eve. I usually wait until the new year, but I needed to get it all stored away, for some reason.

Just got it all stashed yesterday. It was down the day after Christmas - (I have no idea why-I was just in the mood) but it wasn't stowed in the attic. I left all the 'wintery' things out - I feel like I have too much too - but then not having much makes me feel sad....I think it's a sickness. : -)
ReplyDeleteI've been taking it room by room this year... I'm finally down to the final one, the front porch where the "big" tree still resides. And I'm up to 19 bins and counting... I may need to get another one :P

Our decorations will be up for a few more weeks. Each year I get rid of some decorations, but unfortunately, I buy a ton more! I wonder if there's a name for this addiction???
ReplyDeleteWith you on this! We bought new containers and went through it all. Two days!! This is what happens when you have your mom's plus ours from 2 homes, here and overseas.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year!
