Candles always create a special atmosphere. They can make any space cozy, beautiful and warm. On Valentine’s Day, candles are a must when you want to create an intimate home décor and atmosphere full of love.

Romance is often associated with evening and night time, and candles add a special aura of intimacy and delicate taste. You can look for ready-made candles with a love theme, or you can create small masterpieces with your own hands to decorate a festive table or bedroom. If you have simple candles, use roses, red lace or simply original candlesticks to create a romantic setting.

Where to place your romantic Valentines day candles?

Calm soft light is the best option for Valentine’s Day when you need a romantic mood. Let the refined romance and the special mood that candles create take you away from the daily worries! Where can you place your Valentines day candles? Well, everywhere!

On the table, on the vanity table, on the windowsill, on the floor, around the bathtub – the only limit is your imagination! To meet your loved one in the hallway, create a heart out of small tea candles and light them before opening the door. Place candles of different shapes, colors, and sizes throughout the room. They will bring a touch of warmth and mystery to the interior. You can arrange tea candles in a heart shape or place them randomly on the floor and table. Adding flowers or flower petals can never be wrong! Combining candles and Christmas lights is another great idea!

To light up a romantic Valentine’s dinner, take miniature candles in glasses or place a luxurious candelabra on the table. Lanterns? Of course – fill them with pillar candles and arrange them in the corner of the room to light a cuddling spot!
