Readers share the perfect time to deck your halls for Xmas

In a social post, the Leader asked readers when they're planning on decking their halls for the festive period.

While we're still three-weeks away from December, many families and individuals across Wrexham and Flintshire have already spread festive cheer in their homes.

Let's see what you all had to say...

Lizza Ellen Truby from Plas Madoc admits her indoor Christmas decorations have been up since November 6, and the outdoor lights will be up on December 1.

"We put the indoor ones up early or we'd never have time to sort the outdoor lights which take 4 weeks to do", she says.

"We also raise money for Air Ambulance because they saved my husband's life in 2018 after an accident. We put a collection outside."

Kym Tyer says her decorations are already up, and shared a beautiful photo of her tree.

Zoe Jones has put her tree up, and a beautiful garland along the fireplace.

"Mine are up", says Julie Gregson, while Claire Davies says her decs went up earlier this week.

There are also quite a few who insist decorations should be left until December, if not the week before the big day. Do you agree? Perhaps there are a few Scrooges among us...

"Already up, up in the attic until 20th December", said Andy Parry. And he wasn't alone.

Laura Mitchell says her tree will go up on December 5, while Michaela Lunt says "Our family tradition is the first Sunday in December, which luckily is the 1st this year."

"This weekend", admits Julie Jones. That sounds like a great weekend activity to us!

Jan Dancer says: "Soon. Love the festive season. Life's miserable, we need nice things to cheer us up I say." And we couldn't agree more, Jan.

Many of our readers said the best time to put the decs up during the 12 days leading up to Christmas, and certainly not before Thanksgiving celebrations across the pond.

Readers also expressed their thoughts on when is best to take them all down, with some answers being boxing day and others suggesting the end of January.

Whether you think it's too early or the perfect time, make sure you send us your photos when the tree is up to spread that all-important festive cheer.
