30+ Creative Diy Decorations Ideas For Valentines Day

On Valentine’s Day, the restaurants are always crowded and hectic and the romantic comedies are sold out at the movie theaters. Why deal with all that when you can have a perfectly romantic evening at home? Here are some tips to create a cozy, stress-free evening for you and your sweetie.

Light some candles: Candles are a no-brainer but this time, try some scented candles. Both ginger and honey are considered aphrodisiacs so look for some in these scents.

Red is overrated: Harsh reds are a Valentine’s classic but there are plenty of other colors out there to give you the warm and fuzzies (and no, I don’t mean pink). Decorate with a deep plum or burgundy tablecloth to set the mood. It’s also less likely to stain during use!

Use a dimmer: Dim lighting equals instant romance but if there’s food involved, candles might not put off quite enough light. Add a dimmer to your light switch for a little extra light without sacrificing the mood. Remember, spilling food all over yourself is not sexy.
