It’s a question as old as time: when is the right time to start decking the halls for Christmas? You’re either the type who jumps into the holiday spirit as soon as Halloween wraps up, or you prefer to wait until after Thanksgiving. Both perspectives have their merits, and I set out to explore what people really think about this topic.
To get some insights, I asked a few DJs for their opinions. First up was DJ Liv, who shared her thoughts: “I believe the perfect time to start getting into the holiday spirit is right after Thanksgiving. Setting up before then takes away from the importance of Thanksgiving.” Her response supports the idea of waiting, but let's hear from someone else.
Next, I spoke with DJ Goody. She echoed DJ Liv’s sentiment initially, saying, “I was raised to set up for Christmas only after Thanksgiving. But when I have my own home, I’ll be setting up right after Halloween.” A plot twist! Although she started on the same page, DJ Goody revealed she might just be tempted to get festive a little earlier than expected.
Now it was all tied up—1-1. I turned to DJ Soop for the final take. She surprised me by saying, “Honestly, I still haven't taken down my Christmas tree from last year! I love having it up; it gives my room a cozy, festive vibe that makes me feel jolly every morning.” DJ Soop’s perspective? It’s never too early to embrace the holiday spirit.
With these diverse opinions, one thing is clear: it’s all about what makes you happy. Whether you’re ready to set up your tree right after Halloween, wait until after Thanksgiving, or keep your decorations up year-round like DJ Soop, it’s your choice.
