not decorating for christmas

[eseamir]

I'm playing in the southern hemisphere and it's currently heading into summer on my island (and irl), for some reason it doesn't feel right to be using a ton of all the illuminated decorations like I've seen a lot of other people doing on their islands and tbh I'm not much of a holiday decorator in general so I've basically changed nothing on my island in preparation for christmas

is anyone else not decorating for christmas?? what are your reasons? is it aesthetics or are you also playing in summer for christmas?

I also have a SH island too despite living in the NH. I'm kind of inspired by this commercial that I always see every year (it's so old too)

I don't even drink beer.

So I'm gonna do some light Christmas decorations. Nothing heavy.

I think some of the sparkly trees would look good whatever season. Sorry wrong person to advise as I have had a decorated area for a few months

I’m in the same boat as a lot of people here: SH doesn’t really lend itself to the traditional Christmas decorations, so I’m going rather light outdoors (except for illuminated reindeer, but those stay year-round lol). In my lodge, I’m adding more festive decorations as it already has a cozy fall/winter feel.

i would love to decorate for the holidays, but i don't celebrate christmas.... (would really love some hanukkah decorations, nintendo!) but since i'm not christmas decorating, i'm just trying to give my island a nice overall winter aesthetic.

I also live in the southern hemisphere and I absolutely love all the Christmas lights, so I can't wait to get the items to decorate my island hahaha

i grew up on a tropical island in southern hemisphere so yeah we put a lot of christmas decoration but now that I am living in europe, I prefer christmas with snow, it fits better i think, at least for me ^^

Maybe instead of the festive trees, you can use the palm tree lights.

I am also SH, but I really love Christmas so I am using the festive items and just trying to make it work on my island.

I'm in the NH, but I don't want Christmas decorations on my island. I'm just not into them and I feel like it would be extra work to decorate and then tear it down again after Christmas.

holiday decorating is too much work

I’m not decorating either. I’m too lazy to change my island around for each season or holiday so it stays the same all year.

I thought I wasn't going to go overboard for Halloween, then I did. I thought I would be wresting haliween outfits all year round, yet here I am embracing the changing seasons and rearranging the island constantly in winter clothes. It feels weird going to a sh island and seeing Christmas decorations, but I can understand your thinking I think.
