Some of us will have started to deck the halls and trim the tree in November, but for anyone who waits until December to start putting up the Christmas decorations, the debate is this: is it best to do it early in the month, or wait until later so that your greenery doesn't start to wilt and you don't get bored of the festivities before they even start?
For psychotherapist and interior designer, Helen Sanderson MSc, author of Secret Life of Clutter, decorating earlier could be better for your overall happiness. 'If decorating the house early will give you more time and space to focus on other things, then go ahead and do it. You will get to enjoy the decorations for longer, and create more time for the other things you have to do later. It could also help you avoid or reduce some of that last-minute stress.'
