AS much as we might hate to admit it, every year we find ourselves fighting the urge to whip out the Christmas decorations early.

However, one mum has taken matters to new extremes by covering the walls of her home in festive wrapping paper – and people can’t decide if it’s amazing or tacky.

Posting pictures on the Facebook group Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK, the mum explained: “Decorating my house and well I can’t afford the wallpaper I want right now.”

But instead of just putting up with the one she’s got, the mum simply bagged an £11 roll of Santa-inspired Christmas paper from Costco to decorate the walls with.

She said: “[This] will be my wallpaper til January when I can buy the one I want. It looks so good! Looks so Christmassy.”

Although the mum meant to inspire other members of the group, her post sparked fierce debate in the comments – with many branding it “tacky” to use Christmas paper before December.

Users debated whether it was too early to put Christmas decorations up[/caption]

One wrote: “Could do this but can’t stand Christmas or anything about it yet.”

Another asked: “Do you actually think it’s Christmas now?”

“This a new level of yikes,” a third wrote.

But not everyone was so critical – with a third pointing out: “[You can] tell the kids Santa is watching everything they do.”

Another mum shared her own festive transformation[/caption]

Sharing a picture of her own wrapping paper transformation, another user wrote: “I did this last year.

“Doing it again this year. My kids love it.”

However, another pointed out: “Just a thought and only because my daughter would notice and question me.

“If you kids still believe would they not notice you have the same wrapping paper that their presents are wrapped in?

The mum then replied: “Santa sends elves to collect the special wrapping paper to be used and then he wraps the presents…”

For more amazing home transformations, this single mum returned home from holiday to find her parents had transformed her grungy living room with wallpaper, curtains and paint for just £50.

And this mum transformed her dated staircase into a bright and airy space for just £50 and it only took her two nights.

Plus this mum created a Mrs Hinch-inspired kitchen using £28 Amazon sticky wrap after being quoted £7k for a renovation.
