Decor Down Day

Decor Down Day
  • Took down the tree and all indoor decor yesterday.
    It was 20* and 30mph winds yesterday so a good indoor project day.
    I waited until today to take down gate wreaths.
    It was 18* but no wind. Bright and sunny.

    Very dry here so have had to double hay.
    Triple with the icy temps.

    I hope everyone is having a great new start.
  • All indoor stuff taken down Sunday. Rainy all day here so good day for that. I have some lights and balls in a tree still. Way too windy here yesterday to get on a ladder for that stuff.

  • Wait, where are you located? I think protecting Christmas decorations depends on your location because it determines the kind of problem often dealt with. For example, here in the West, snow is a big contributing factor. So, for us, we pound the rebar or other heavy-duty metal stake into the earth behind the display using a rubber mallet. Then, preferably to a hole or aperture on the back of the item, place a solid chain or heavy rope. Grass or snow will hide the tether for the most part.
