With Halloween out of the way, many are currently pondering ‘when is too early to put the Christmas tree up?’. My view is that it’s never too early - whatever it takes to get you into the festive spirit in what often appears to be dark and gloomy times amid the rising cost of living, I say.
We’ve already pulled the tree out of the loft ready to be put up one free weekend, likely after Remembrance Sunday on November 13, which gives me a little over a week to plan a theme, and buy some baubles.
This year, to save both time and money, I’ve used an online hack that’s worked out EXACTLY how many baubles my tree will need this year, so that I won’t frustratingly buy too little, or worse, too many!
