    We're in the middle of December at the moment so I guess I'm a tad late starting this thread now.

    Nevertheless, leading into Christmas, show us photos of your awesome Christmas trees/decorations, Santa costume selfies or whatever Christmas-related stuff you feel like showing off!

    That's amazing, Hybrid.

    Anyway, we're gonna do our tree on Christmas Eve, it's kind of a tradition...

    A great one at that! I love how Yukon Cornielius is battling the Abominable Snowman on and around Derek's face.

    Amazing tree Hybrid!

    Anyway, not exactly my decorations, but some pics of Christmas markets in Belgium/Germany/France/. It's not that far from where I live, perfect time of the year to make a little trip over there :)

    Nope lol I didn't give the right order, sorry.

    I've had enough of the christmas decorations my mum has put up, I don't want to take pictures. I'll just describe them.
    The handrail for the stairs has huge gold tinsel, christmas lights, a string of silver plastic pearls wrapped around it. There are cheap plastic fake candles placed in random spots around the house that light up when you turn them on. There is a tiny plastic christmas tree on each computer desk. There is a playlist of christmas music being played constantly on my mum's computer (but she refuses to put My Chemical Romance- All I Want For Christmas Is You in the playlist). Our christmas tree is covered in christmas lights, a srting of plastic pearls, lolly shaped decorations, star shaped decoration, and other decorations. Our table has a green table cloth with red place mats, a christmas tree shaped gravy pourer thingy, a bowl shaped like a snowman. We have christmas light on the roof and each window. Two santa pictures hanging from the front door, and lights in the window next to the door saying "Merry Christmas!". We have stockings hanging, two advent calanders on the wall, and random christmas-ish knick knacks around the place. A tiny bow at the bottom of each of the sticks that hold up the hand rail, and two giant red bows on the dining room wall.
    It's all very, very tacky.

    So how long after Christmas Eve do you Croatians keep the tree up? Just curious.

    @Joe, great work on your house! :)

    In Croatia, we keep them until 6.1., that's a holiday. However, only in my town we keep them until 15.1., until the holiday of our town's protector.
