Short-term Decor

All this decorating we do this time of year - it doesn't seem right to take it down in a few days, does it?

I might leave my Christmas decor in my home a bit longer than usual, some of it, that is. 

Who says it needs to be removed on New Year's day?!  I think joyous, positive elements spread throughout the home are meant to be enjoyed longer than just a few weeks.
