Valentine's Day 2018 Home Decor

Happy Sunday evening! Love is in the air, and that’s because Valentine’s Day is just over two weeks away! We got a head start on decorating our home (cuz why not?!) which is now dressed with cute baubles in red, white, and pink. This is one of our favorite holidays because it really only took a few pieces in select areas to make a big statement.

The best way to ring in Valentine’s Day, and spring for that matter, is to cover every possible inch of our home in flowers. This was easily accomplished by including a small vase on the countertop of the powder room; adding blooms in red and pink to our frequently used flower box on the buffet in the dining room; placing a bouquet of roses on the credenza in the foyer; and hanging a wreath of tulips over the fireplace.

Continuing our pattern of utilizing items that we already own, a set of heart-shaped window clings from the 90’s have been plastered on mirrors in every bathroom. Cute stuffed bears are placed alongside wooden “Love” signs on the mantle. Pink, puffy heart-shaped toys are sprinkled within a crystal heart-shaped dish of Sue’s. Red table runners and towels add a rich, sophisticated look to a number of different rooms. Candles in white, red, and iridescent glitter cover every other blank space throughout the house.

In a moment of sheer creativity, Sue also wound ribbons of colored paper Mache on two lines of wire and bent it in the shape of—you guessed it—a heart! Both are now hanging on parallel walls in the foyer and powder room.
