According to what I've read somewhere its considered bad luck to put up decorations before Christmas eve and they should be taken down (thoroughly) 12 days after. I dont think too many people bother to wait til Christmas eve these days though. |

They should go up 12 days before and down 12 days after. However in this day and age it seems that noone seems to stick with what is tradition and people seem to have forgotten the real reason of christmas. |
