Decorate the table for the Valentine’s Day
You don’t need much to create a romantic and festive table decoration. You don’t even need to buy expensive party supplies. Here are some ideas you can use to surprise your lover or friends:
- Cut out little hearts from red cardboard. Be clever and reuse what you have around the house, like leftover Christmas wrapping paper or an empty box of candy or treats. Spread them around the table;
- If you don’t have red cardstock, use a sheet of white paper. Cut out hearts and place red kisses on them. You can also write quotes or cute words;
- Have red candy for dessert and use it as a table decoration during dinner.
- Creatively fold a few red napkins and place them on everyone’s plate;
- Break out the LED Christmas lights and place them in the center of the table to create a festive yet casual atmosphere;
- Collect all the small red or pink items from your memory boxes and place them as decorations on the table. It can be a piece of jewelry, stones, king’s cake figurines, an adaptable Christmas decoration, dried flowers;
- Use your red nail polish to paint stones or shells.
Prepare the menu for the Valentine’s Day
The Valentine’s Day menu isn’t too difficult to prepare either. Since this year 2025 the holiday falls on Tuesday, you probably won’t have time to prepare a big dinner. So you can prepare a charcuterie platter and buy a bottle of good red wine. Here are some other options you can enjoy:
- Prepare muffins from the day before and decorate them with red cardboard hearts;
- Make dough for Pinsa Romana the day before and bake it on Tuesday 14. You can make the Roman pizza heart-shaped instead of oval;
- Prepare red cocktails;
- A few baguettes in combination with homemade spreads, olives and a tray of crudities are all you need for a light dinner.
Valentine’s Day gift 2025
Use Valentine’s Day gifts as decorations for the party and open them after dinner. This will create a romantic atmosphere and keep your curiosity alive during the evening. If you are an impatient person, wrap some empty boxes in thematic paper and decorate the house with it.
A cute and sentimental gift can be to place red envelopes around the house. You can fill them with pictures of your travels in 2024, with beautiful quotes, with promises you will fulfill during the year, or with personal coupons (example: I will clean the house every time you give me this coupon). Another idea is to write instructions for finding the next envelope. In the last envelope, put your gift (vacation reservation, jewelry, SPA treatment, etc.).
