Valentine’s Day is a time when romance can bloom and love can reign. Are you ready to create a mood for love in your home? It’s easy to create a fun and romantic look by following these simple DIY decorating tips.

The first thing to do is decide what images Valentine’s Day conjures up in your mind. Need some ideas? Try Hearts and Flowers, Wet and Wild, Sweet and Soft, Sugary and Fun - it’s all up to you. Pick a theme and a color scheme and get to work!

Decorate the Walls
Vinyl wall decals are easy to apply, and remove, so they can stay up just for Valentine’s Day, or stick around for a romantic touch through-out the rest of the year. Just about any wall sticker design can work because they come in an array of colors including shades of red, pink, lavender and even white. You can even “Say It” with wall stickers that also come in letters and words. Splash romantic words or an original love poem across the wall to let your sweetie know just what’s in your heart.

Remember the Kitchen
Remember the kitchen can be a romantic spot, too. In addition to a bouquet of flowers on the table, try sugar-cookie scented candles or tea lights as a runner down the middle with a little heart shaped confetti sprinkled there too. Add a special set of red dishes just for the two of you and romance has never been so delicious.

Don’t Forget the Bedroom
A sensual and romantic bedroom can be achieved inexpensively. Layer colored linens in white and shades of red on the bed. Pop the romantic color with throw pillows you make yourself with silk scarves. Glue beads and crystals you can purchase at any craft store to the edge of lamp shades and voila!

Even the Bathroom Can Use a Little Love!
Red towels and scented candles always bring to mind romance, so, add them to the bathroom easily. Plus, wall decals stick to just about any surface, so you can carry your decorating theme to the bathroom on the mirrors, waste pails, and even cabinets to keep your Valentines theme dazzling every room in the house.
