Valentine’s Day does double duty at our house: it’s both a season of love and an opportunity bring some much needed color and vibrancy into our bland winter. What better way to add cheer to your home than with warm reds and pinks!
Using these DIY décor ideas, you can add a little love and happiness to any area. Most of them are sturdy enough to store and lovely enough to use year after year. Or heck, leave them up year round – not a single one actually says the word “Valentine.”
Valentine Wreath
See tutorial at Tatertots & Jello
This is one of those mindless projects perfect for a lovey dovey movie night with the family or just the one you love. Maybe your better half will want to make one too?
You & Me and Love You More Prints
Download at Smallful
I created these specifically to give my husband for Valentine’s Day (finding gifts for him is nearly impossible). Download and customize with your own beautiful frames, or add and embellish as you see fit!
Wall of Hearts
See tutorial at How About Orange
This is such a simple project – it’s just a matter of how many hearts you’re willing to make. I think it would be the perfect project to do together as a family. The kids can definitely help!
Felt Heart Garland
See the tutorial at Make Zine
I love the look of turning paper or felt strips into hearts – there’s just something magical about it! String these up over every doorway in your home. I dare you!
Yarn LOVE Letters
See tutorial at My Sister’s Suitcase
We’ve all seen yarn-wrapped letters before, but these look extra cool with the slight ombre effect. Stack the letters to create a gradual color fade. Make the fade even more gradual by continuing the striping towards the center.
