🌹Valentine's Day🌹 is just around the corner and you don't have to leave the house to have an unforgettable evening. You can easily give your significant other a Valentine's date they'll remember forever from the comfort of your own home. Let's start with food and drink.
1. Surprise them with an expanding snack board you can stack with meats and cheese for a charcuterie dinner, or arrange sweets on it for a decadent dessert tray. The sides of the board slide out to hold more food, or you can use 'em as your plates (I'm not judging).
2. Toast your lasting love with a set of stemless champagne flutes. They're thicker and more sturdy than traditional flutes so they won't tip and break as easily around your accident-prone partner.
3. If cooking is your love language, a date night cookbook will turn you both into iron chefs while cooking your Valentine's feast. It's stuffed with creative dinner and drink recipes that'll keep both of you on your toes in the kitchen.
4. If you want to recreate that scene from Lady and the Tramp, you'll need a bowl of spaghetti. A pasta drying rack will air your fresh noodles out before you toss them in the pot. Taking this extra step will make your dinner a meal any Italian grandma will be proud of.
5. A silicone mould of lil' hearts will make sure you don’t drop the ball with dessert. Melt some chocolate down and fill up the mould for an easy but impressive treat you can prepare ahead of time. Or spend the evening making more intricate confectionaries together.
6. An ice cream maker will have you spending the night inventing and taste testing new flavours. Make a sundae bar and go wild with toppings, or you can opt for a fresh sorbet if you're fans of fruity desserts.
The key to an unforgettable Valentine's date is a fun activity that'll have you both making memories that'll last a lifetime.
7. Turn your living room into a movie theatre with a mini projector that'll bring the cinema right into your home. It'll be more special than regular movie nights on your TV and you'll probably want to keep it out for playing video games or to watch sports.
8. Movie nights need snacks, and a microwave popcorn maker will turn kernels into fresh popcorn in minutes. It’ll be just like at the theatre, except you won’t have to worry about eating it all before the movie starts because refills are free.
9. Work together on an escape room box to solve puzzles and find all the clues you need to break free. If you're a competitive couple you can use the timer to try and escape in under an hour, or you can take your time to finish the game and stretch it out over a few dates.
10. If you're both into deep conversations, a love language card game will prompt the questions you've been hesitant to ask. It'll provide you with hours of thought-provoking conversation whether your relationship is fresh, or you've been together forever.
11. Or a classic game of Twister that'll have you throwing it back to your childhood as you become tangled on the mat. You can make things more interesting by incorporating ~spicy~ elements to the game.
12. Spend the night unleashing your inner artists with a watercolour paint set. You can make your own paintings or swap your work every couple of minutes to create a masterpiece together.
Eventually you'll both want to pamper yourselves and wind down from the high-energy activities. This is you chance to wow them with an at-home spa.
13. You'll need a bag of lavender-scented bath salts if you want to treat your lover to a relaxing soak that'll help them unwind from the incredible date you just planned for them.
14. While you're in the tub, both of you can rock a Garnier sheet mask. The ingredients will add an extra boost of moisture to dry winter skin, and you won't have to spend precious minutes of your Valentine's night scrubbing it off.
15. After a relaxing bath, use coconut oil to give them a sweet-scented massage that'll help melt that last bit of daily stress away. Its gentle formula is great for treating dry skin and scalps.
16. Finish the evening with a quick reflection in a daily couple's journal. It's full of random and fun questions to answer that'll keep you entertained and engaged through the year.
17. And finally, get cozy under a fleece throw that'll keep both of you warm without having to fight a war over who gets the good blanket.
Them after you treat them to the most perfect Valentine's Day at home ever:
