Do the "12 days of Christmas" start on the 25th or end on it? I've never been quite clear on that point.

My partner puts them up November 1st and then takes them down on boxing day.

I get their logic. You want them up in the build up and then gone once Christmas is done.

Originally Christmas celebrations were 12 days. It's still accepted to keep an decorations up until the 12th day, so that means you can start taking things down on Epiphany

I'm gonna keep my Christmas tree up all year and just halfassedly redecorate it for each holiday.
