When Can I Decorate for Valentine’s Day?
You can honestly start decorating for Valentines Day as early as you want to get in the celebratory mood. Ideally, you shouldn’t decorate your home for Valentines Day like a day or two before, unless you’re hosting a Valentine’s Day party.
The best time to decorate for Valentines Day is 2-3 weeks before February 14th. But that also means you should have an idea about how you want to decorate your home way before then, so make sure you plan ahead so that 2-3 weeks before Valentines Day you can just get straight to decorating.
Which Color is Good for Valentine’s Day?
The classic Valentines Day colors are pink, red, and white but you can also pair these colors with some gold or silver metallic accents. Combining any shade of pink with white and shades of red instantly gives your home that Valentines Day aesthetic when you’re decorating for the holiday.

Some of these simple Valentines Day decor ideas include festive throw blankets and pillows, heart-shaped garlands, simple coffee table decorations like Valentines Day themed decorative books, and more!
1. Valentines Day Throw Pillows
Throw pillows make decorating for a special holiday like Valentines Day easier. They add that romantic vibe to your space and are a perfect decor idea for anyone who wants to keep their Valentines Day decor on the minimal side.
You can get some cute Valentines Day themed throw pillows in pink and red or opt for pillow covers instead.
Add these to the couch, entryway, or make them accents for your bedroom and you’ve got yourself the simplest yet cute Valentines Day decorations.
2. Valentines Day Tiered Tray Decor Set
Decor sets make decorating for Valentines Day stupid simple and I love them for that. This tiered tray set for Valentines Day would be perfect for decorating the kitchen area, especially if you have extra countertop space.
This set would also be perfect as a centerpiece for the island or even a dining table. So if you want your decor to give “I put so much effort into this” with minimal effort, look no further than Valentines Day decor sets!
3. Heart-Shaped Ornaments for Valentines Day
How cute are these heart-shaped ornaments?! I absolutely love how they come in different colors too. For the girlies who love to decorate a Valentines Day tree, you can’t miss adding these cutesy hearts on that love tree. D
on’t stop there though! There are some other fun ways to incorporate heart ornaments into your space this Valentines Day! You can use multiple of them to create a garland for your mantel, fill them in a clear jar to make a centerpiece, or hang them on your wreath to make it more stunning.
4. Valentines Day Garland Decor for the Home
Another simple but special decor idea for Valentines Day is infusing your home with Valentines Day themed garlands. This one from Amazon comes with three long garlands so you can easily decorate multiple rooms all at once. Add these garlands to your windows, above your bed, or combine them to create a longer garland for your front door.
5. Valentines Day Wooden Book Stack
Show your coffee table some love as well with Valentines Day themed decorative books. If you don’t have them, no worries. You can use wooden books stacked together to mimic real decorative books. These Valentines Day stacked books come with the little XOXO cubes and they are insanely affordable. Other than your coffee table, you can use this set to decorate your mantel, bedroom dresser, and bedside table.
6. Decorate with Throw Blankets for Valentines Day
There’s nothing better than curling on the sofa with a soft knit throw blanket! But girlies, throw blankets can be used to decorate for Valentines Day too.
Make sure you get yourself one in red or pink and pair it with your throw pillows to decorate your living room, add it to a basket and decorate your entryway or drape it over your bed for a touch of warmth and color. My favorite way to decorate with a throw blanket though, is adding it to a chair to create a reading nook.
You don’t even have to buy a new one, if you have a nice throw blanket in pink and red, you’re good to go.
7. Valentines Day Door Sign
Let your neighbors know that love is in the air by hanging a cute Valentines Day door sign or wreath to your front door. I love a nice heart-shaped rose wreath but there’s just something about this “Love you to pieces” sign that has me feeling obsessed!!
To be honest you can even hang it on your bedroom or bathroom door because it’s just so cute! If you’re a DIY girly, how fun would it be to craft a Valentines Day sign like this one?! It would be even more perfect if you paired it with some string lights for that warm and inviting glow.
8. Valentines Day Doormat
When you hang that door sign, don’t forget to pair it with a Valentines Day themed doormat. I’m in love with this conversation doormat and I’m sure you will obsess over it too!
I also find those ultra simple doormats with a welcoming message like “Love is in the Air” to also get the job done. Festive doormats are also perfect for the bathroom and kitchen areas and they are a great way to decorate indoors when you don’t want to do too much.
V-day doormats are not only charming and decorative but also help keep floors clean during the season. Plus, they set the tone for a romantic entryway making your guests feel the love they even set foot inside your home.
9. Valentines Day Heart Berry Stems
A festive centerpiece is a must during the Valentines Day season! Most of them can also be DIYed if you’re very crafty. If you’re not really a DIY person though, you can easily get festive berry and heart stems from Amazon, add them to your vase and you’re done.
These specific stems have rave reviews on Amazon and would be perfect as a dining area centerpiece or be used to decorate on either side of the mantel. I personally enjoy decorating my bedroom so I would also add them on top of my dresser.
10. Valentines Day Kitchen Towels
Prefer your decor to be as functional as it is cute?! Then get something like Valentines Day kicthen towels. You get the ultra cute heart shapes and something to dry dishes with around the kitchen.
Like does it get any better than that?! In addition to kitchen towels, you can also get Valentines Day hand towels for bathrooms. They are a simple but cute way to add that Valentines Day touch to your bathrooms without buying a lot of stuff.

Love love how they look equally stunning on their own.

Table runners with heart designs and lovey-dovey messages add that romantic aesthetic which is perfect for Valentines Day.

Ensure the material is soft and look for those decorative fabrics too because they truly elevate any table.
I’m in love with the conversation hearts table runner above in classic Valentines Day shades. It would for sure be a great conversation starter! 🤩

After choosing your table runner, it is now time to combine it with other elements that will make love truly blossom from your dining area.

16. Valentines Day Hanging Hearts
To spice up your home even more for Valentines Day, get yourself some hanging hearts.
Hang these on an empty wall to create a photo backdrop or hang them on a window to supercharge the celebratory mood.
If you’re looking for a more creative way to decorate with hanging hearts or hanging florals for Valentines Day, I’m going to share with you this hack I’ve seen on TikTok. Yes girl, there’s no gate keeping over here!
So you take some damage free command hooks, and then you hang your hanging hearts or florals on the ceiling. The longer the decor piece the better.
This creates a dreamy effect that is perfect for taking photos but also makes your home look so stunning and like you’ve put so much effort into decorating!
17. Silk Rose Petals
Is it even Valentines Day if there are no rose petals in sight?! These silk ones from Amazon will enhance the romantic mood for any Valentines Day date! Scatter them on the dining table alongside your table setting, on the bed, or create a pathway with them. So don’t forget to add these gems into your Valentines Day home decor ideas this year!
18. Flameless Candles
In addition to silk rose petals, candles are a must-have when you want your space to give major romantic vibes. Flameless candles can really complete your tablescape, and can also be used alongside the rose petals to create a romantic pathway. What I love about flameless candles is that they’re safe and still create a romantic mood. In addition to the dining table, I love placing them on the mantel or inside decorative lanterns when I decorate. The best part is that they are reusable and can be used to decorate beyond Valentines Day!
19. Valentines Day Themed Balloons
Lastly, heart-shaped and XOXO balloons will be your BFF if you’ve never decorated with them before!
They give off major “party time” vibes so they instantly set the tone for Valentines Day celebrations.
I also love how they offer endless possibilities because you can use them to make a balloon bouquet, have them floating on the ceiling, or scatter them on the floor depending on what you like.
My absolute favorite way to decorate with them though, is sticking them to the wall in a symmetrical way. It’s such a perfect way to fill up empty walls and they also double as a photo backdrop which is a major win for me.
