Halloween vs. Xmas

**Dr. TerrorEyes** · 06-26-2009,12:02 PM

Hi Folks.

Is it just me, or are others out there realizing that our old Christmas decorations are getting in the way of storing our more important Halloween props? You know, I NEVER would spend such valuable time, space and $$ on silly old Christmas stuff. I just gotta start weeding through the Christmas stuff to reclaim space -- so I can create and store more significant Halloween pieces/props.

Oh, the problems of the Propaholic!

Yeah, I have a ton of Xmas stuff, too. The post was kinda tongue-in-cheek as I decorate inside the house as much for Xmas as Halloween (did you see all the pics with junk I have for Halloween parties at our house?).

Thanks,

Christmas and Halloween are almost completely different but they both bring A LOT to the table and are both very special in their own ways. I love both of the holidays and think that the same time and effort should be used for both of them.

Uhm, I like Halloween way more. I have plenty of xmas stuff. My parents insist on putting inflatables on the lawn...but I think its tacky. I also don't really like colored lights on my house unless its the old fashioned c7/c9 lights. I prefer white lights, same with the xmas tree. I tend to like to use green garland with white lights on the house, as well as very tasteful things on the lawn. I prefer it elegant and organized. Don't get me wrong I do enjoy colors, but it has to be done in such a way that it looks good - especially if people have all the lights on music censors and all that.

But I do agree, more room for Halloween I say!

I love and celebrate every holiday, but christmas and halloween are my favorites of course. And halloween is the all time king for me.

Christmas is big in my house (birthday is Dec.24 ). This the 3rd year back at decorating for Halloween. And it's getting bigger then our Christmas (14 years of Christmas props ) I think it might (halloween ) be my favorite holiday now .Even looking for a hearse now

I am a ginormous fan of both. I decorate in equal amounts for both. I think you can have more fun with halloween decorations though. But, i would never give up all of my neat christmas decorations.
