Are you looking for a way to add romance to your home for Valentine’s Day? You may want to show your other half how thoughtful you can be, or perhaps you just love this special day? Keep reading this blog to find out how you can transform your home into the perfect pad for love, ready for 14 February.

The usual favourites

Everyone knows, or at least should know, the usual necessities for Valentine’s Day.

The first is, of course, flowers. Flowers on the window sill, or placed in the conservatory as a stunning centrepiece will shower your home with love, as well as brighten up your interiors for a happier house.

The second thing is chocolate. Boxes of chocolate will be flying off the shelves around Valentine’s Day, and they should be landing right in your home. You could place them in a statement bowl and leave them out for everyone to grab when they come into the kitchen, or have them to hand on your side table in your living room.

The big, bold gestures

If you’d like to make a grand gesture on Valentine’s Day, what better way to do this than with champagne?

A bottle of fizz and some glasses waiting for your loved one on the dining room table would be perfect, or you could go all out and get a few bottles and arrange them in a love heart! Even better, you could place your Valentine’s gift, if it’s something shiny in a pretty box, in the middle of the champagne heart for a lavish surprise.

The subtle hints

You can quite literally add love in the air with candles. Scents like jasmine, rose, cinnamon and white ginger are a great choice, but often any scented candle will do the trick. Simply turning the lights off and lighting candles creates a romantic ambience, perfect for Valentine’s Day.

You can also subtly dress your home for Valentine’s Day with red or love heart print cushions, throws or chairs, like we have in our kitchen extension at the front of our showroom.

The all year round love

Do you want your home to look like it’s been struck with Cupid’s Bow all year round? Why not add a red front door to your home to let people know that they’re entering a haven full of love and romance?

We have red doors in Derby available in lots of different styles, including charming composite and PVCu and ultra-modern aluminium and Lumi designs.

Not to mention, we offer decorative double glazing in any design, so you could add gorgeous, romantic glasswork to your front door if you would like.

While you won’t get your new red front door in time for Valentine’s Day 2019, we can install the perfect entrance to add love to your home all year round.

We’ll be sharing the love on 14 February at our showroom

Come along to our London Road, Derby, showroom on Thursday 14 February to receive a free glass of bubbly for Valentine’s Day.

You can also see how we’ve decorated the full size houses, kitchens and conservatories in our showroom for the special day, and find out more about our range of products.
