Sure, Valentine's Day decor is notorious for being saccharine and sickly sweet, but with the right touch, you can strike a perfect balance between kitsch and cliché.
A mix of soft lighting and beautiful tableware can make any Valentine’s or Galentine’s evening feel extra special. To help you create the ultimate romantic setting, I’ve rounded up 18 must-have decor finds below.
Give your tablescape a romantic touch with these napkin rings made from a soft pink linen and fashioned into delicate bows.
Made by renowned French cutlery brand Sabre, this bistro flatware set is finished with a red gingham to add a pop of rogue to each place setting.
Looking for some recipe ideas or a new kitchen shelf addition? Sky McAlpine brings over 100 nourishing recipes that will tell your guests "I love you" without words.
Meticulously inscribed with different love notes, including 'Je T'aime', 'Always', and 'More Amour' these handblown glasses are too cute to save for best.
A vintage-inspired medallion is one of my favorite ways to add interest to my walls without the need for oversized (and expensive) art. This detailed heart can be hung on a wall or used to top napkins and centerpieces.
While you could get this as a simple greeting card for your loved one, I'm ordering this 'A Perfect Match' illustration so I can frame it and add it to my gallery wall.
Either a great gift or piece of decor, this ingenious tote bag by Joanna Gaines for Target has been created in a conical shape to carry your flowers at the market or hang them up at home.
The ultimate mark of sophistication, these Murano wine glasses capture the vibrancy of an Italian summer but in your home.
This hand-painted ceramic jug is pretty and durable enough to be used at your table or as a vase for fresh flowers (hopefully sent by your Valentine).
It wouldn't be a romantic table without soft candlelight and these pink twisted taper candles, designed with Studio McGee, couldn't be more on theme.
If you're looking to serve up a hearty dinner this Valentine's, might I suggest a heart-topped Le Creuset Cocotte as your dish of choice?
Tied up to look like the prettiest bouquet, these cotton napkins from H&M have been designed with contrasting wavy embroidery to bring whimsy to the table.
Serving up a whole lot of love, this platter has been designed by ceramicist The Mud Fairy and adorned with heart-shaped tulips with Valentine's in mind.
It wouldn't be the season of love without some love hearts now would it? This gingham, Cottagecore-inspired table runner is cute enough to keep out year round.
Want your flowers to last long past February 14? This bunch of faux peonies comes in a delicate coral pink to create a blooming centerpiece for your table or kitchen island.
And of course, you need something to hold your candles in. This heart-shaped soft pink taper holder is sweetly shaped like a heart but is subtle enough to remain out past Valentine's.
Whether you’re planning a candlelit dinner, a chic cocktail night, or a laid-back gathering with friends, this Valentine's Day decor edit has something for every kind of celebration.
