Add Fabulous Flowers to Your Home for Valentine’s Day

Bringing flowers into your home, whether fresh or faux, is one of the easiest ways to decorate for Valentine’s Day. Florals instantly add color, softness, and a romantic feel, even in the middle of winter.

Finding fresh blooms in the garden isn’t always possible this time of year, but there are still plenty of options:

Pick up a bouquet from your local florist or grocery store
Use realistic faux flowers that can be reused year after year
Bring home a potted flowering plant

Choosing flowers in shades of red, pink, or white keeps things seasonal, and adding a bit of greenery helps create texture and contrast.

When it comes to containers, anything goes. I love mixing flowers into vintage pieces, colorful vases, unique shapes, or even a simple mason jar for an effortless look.

Create a Pink and Red Valentine’s Day Tablescape

A pink-and-red Valentine’s Day tablescape is a pretty way to celebrate the holiday, even if just for a simple dinner at home. You don’t need a formal setup; just a few thoughtful details go a long way.

Start with a floral centerpiece, then layer in simple elements like candles, baked treats, and red, pink, or white linens. I kept things classic with white plates, red glasses, and gold flatware, then added a faux white chocolate-covered strawberry at each place setting for a fun Valentine’s touch.

It’s a great reminder that a table doesn’t have to be complicated to feel special.

Show Off Your Valentine’s Desserts and Treats

Valentine’s Day is the perfect excuse to give a little extra attention to your kitchen. Decorating with baked goods and sweet treats is an easy (and delicious) way to celebrate.

Heart-shaped cookies, cupcakes in festive colors, or chocolate-dipped strawberries can all double as decor. Try displaying treats in glass jars, cloches, or on a tiered cake stand on your kitchen counter or island. A mix of red and pink macarons or meringues adds color while still feeling elegant.

This is one of my favorite ways to decorate because it’s temporary, fun, and doesn’t require storing anything afterward.

Decorate With Glass Cloches and Canisters

Glass cloches and canisters are one of my favorite decorating tools, especially for Valentine’s Day. They instantly make small displays feel intentional and a little special.

You can fill them with heart-shaped accents, faux flowers, teacups, or even treats for a soft, romantic look. Rose petals, paper hearts, or battery-operated candles all work beautifully under glass.

Cloches are perfect for tabletops, shelves, and kitchen counters where you want a subtle Valentine’s moment without clutter.

Create a Romantic Bedroom for Valentine’s Day

Valentine’s Day is a lovely opportunity to add a few romantic touches to the bedroom, even if it’s just for a short time. This doesn’t have to be dramatic. Small changes can make a big difference.

Start with a simple color palette using pinks or reds. I used pink as my Valentine’s color in this space and kept everything else fairly neutral. Wall art, like a “LOVE” sign, makes an easy statement, while fresh and faux flowers, candles, and soft textiles add warmth.

You could also string a few twinkle lights to create a cozy, inviting atmosphere without overwhelming the room.

Mix in Decorative Accessories With Valentine’s Day Colors

One of the easiest ways to decorate for Valentine’s Day is by mixing in accessories you may already own. Swapping out a few pieces in red, pink, or white instantly gives your home a festive feel.

Throws, pillows, vases, and small decor accents are perfect for this. You can also add subtle Valentine’s touches with garlands, floral wreaths, or banners, especially in entryways or living spaces.

I like this approach because it layers naturally with winter decor and doesn’t feel too theme-heavy.
