Special Touches for Valentine’s Day

Monday February 1, 2010

Filed under: Interior Design, Studio 5-d

Valentine’s Day isn’t just for lovers. It’s a special day of the year to express your love and appreciation to many people in your life.  Whether it’s children, siblings or friends, a special message will be appreciated by all.

With little touches around the house, on a desk, or around a dinner table, you can let the people in your life know how special they are to you. I don’t know a person who wouldn’t enjoy it!

Here are our ideas on tiny little ways to bring the Valentine spirit to your home.

It doesn’t matter a bit if red or pink don’t go with your decor. You’ll only have these special touches up for a day or two. They’ll surely bring a smile to faces!

·             Add a Bow to a Stuffed Animal

·             Tie Red Ribbons on a Chandelier or Ceiling Fixture

·            Tape a Red Ribbon on the Computer Monitor

·            String a Valentine Garland Over a Chair

·            Put a Small Vase of Flowers on the Bathroom Counter

·           Perk Up a Plant by tying a bow to a plant stick and place it in the soil

·          Purchase an inexpensive Fluffy Red Pillow for a chair or sofa

·          Don’t Forget the Candles!  Put them everywhere –  on the dining room table, a bedside table, on the bathroom counter, etc.

With simple, inexpensive and tiny touches, you can bring the spirit of Valentine’s Day to your home or office or that of your loved ones. It doesn’t take much work, but your thoughtfulness will add so much to their enjoyment of this special day. Happy Valentine’s Day!
