Sweet, stylish buys to fill your home with love this Valentine's Day
Whether you’re over it or obsessed with it, there’s no escaping the fact that Valentine’s Day is around the corner. And while most folks will be busy sprucing up their wardrobes for date-night worthy looks, we’re leaning towards giving our homes a mini-makeover with these seven decor items that will last way past any bad romance (take that, Cupid!)…
Clever lighting or sexy lingerie isn’t the only way to bring romance into the bedroom. This set of subtle pink, stone-washed cotton bedding comes with a 130 thread count and intricate quilting details, promising to feel luxuriously soft on skin while adding an alluringly amorous aura to the bedroom.$99; Available at Structube
Into bohemian chic interiors? Then these straw baskets will fit seamlessly into your home. Made from sustainably harvested maize, embroidered with the word love in colourful yarn and available in small and large sizes, they’ll serve as storage options while keeping your home’s overall design theme on point. $48-$85; Available at The Cross Decor & Design
A cheery pop of colour never hurt anyone, and this retro-licious armchair in a lovely shade dubbed Quartz Rose is a winner in our books. Relaxing with a glass of wine and your beau for company in the comfort of your own home has never looked better.$499; Available at Article
Nothing sets the tone for a romantic tête-à-tête quite like a scented candle. We’re partial to Bella Freud’s hot red offering, both for its stunning exterior and its sensual tuberose, amber and sandalwood scent.$92; Available at Net-A-Porter.com
Cuddle up and get cozy with this heart-shaped pillow in a gorgeous deep burgundy hue. Its soft, furry texture makes it extremely huggable, and when placed against lighter coloured couches, it’ll provide a beautiful layer of contrast.$67.26; Available at Nordstrom
If you’re a fan of clean, minimalist interiors, this piece has your name written all over it. From its cursive script to its burnished gold finish, this is one sexy way to say I love you in French. Bonus points for how versatile it is—wherever you decide to put it on display, it’ll definitely be one attention-grabbing home decor accent.$131; Available at Pottery Barn
Valentine’s Day only occurs once a year, so why not invest in fashionable and functional items that would be suitable for anniversaries or birthdays as well? Our pick—champagne glass with the words Cheers to forever printed merrily on its surface. Now that’s how true love should be celebrated! $13.66; Available at Crate and Barrel
