People need to take down their Christmas decorations on New Year's Day.
This all depends on the individual family, as there is no Mormon religious custom about holiday decorations. Some families like to leave their Christmas decorations up longer than others. I grew up a Mormon, and we always took our Christmas decorations down the day after Christmas. Now that I am grown, I usually take my Christmas decorations down on New Years Day. Most facilities owned by the Mormon Church that decorate for Christmas take their decorations down shortly after New Years Day, which is customary for most people in the United States. Maybe the Mormons you know are either too lazy to take down their Christmas decorations, or they love Christmas so much that they don't want to take them down?
Luck does not come into it. That is just superstition. Christmas decorations should not come down until after Christmas is over. So that means you should take them down on the 7th of January.
After Christmas
Christmas decorations should not come down until after Christmas is over. So that means you should take them down on the 7th of January no matter what year it is. So in 2014 they should have come down on the 7th of January.
There is no right or wrong time to take down the Christmas crib. Many people leave decorations up until the new year and others remove them the day after.
Christmas trees and decorations are traditionally taken down on 6th January.
The tradition varies based on cultural and personal preferences. Some people take down their Christmas decorations before 6th January, while others choose to leave them up until Epiphany, which is commonly celebrated on that date. Ultimately, it is up to you to decide when you would like to take down your decorations.
The Christmas decorations must be down by 12th night, which always falls on the 5th January.
No, Christmas isn't about luck it's about sharing an caring
Still in storage in my loft, perhaps I will get them down today.
A store will usually decide its Christmas program once Halloween has passed. Some malls even being putting up Christmas decorations as soon as the Halloween decorations have been taken down.
