when should you take the christmas decorations down

That's a tricky question. Traditionally, Christmas decorations are taken down on January 6th, the Feast of the Epiphany, which celebrates the arrival of the three wise men to visit baby Jesus. However, there are no hard and fast rules about when to take them down. Some people keep their decorations up until after New Year's Day, while others like to take them down as soon as the 12th day of Christmas is over. Ultimately, it's up to you to decide when to put away your decorations.
