Ready in 1 hour-2 hours with craft
Serves 2 guests
Preparation
1. Find that Intimate Nook to get away in and use the furniture you have as a base for a bar cart.
Bedroom-clear off the dresser or nightstand
Mudroom-throw the unfolded clothes into another space and set up the washer with a tablecloth
Bathroom-put a cutting board over the sink
Here we set the stage in the Entryway
2. Create that Cozy Snuggle Spot.
Two comfy chairs
A love seat
A blanket and lots of pillows
You can easily push your chairs into place by using paper plates under the legs, just make sure and measure your doors to guarantee they’ll fit through them.
3. Bring on the ambiance, it's time to set the mood.
Candles-real or flameless
Scent-impacts your emotions; Cinnamon can awaken, while Lavender will calm tension
Music-don’t have a record player? Put together a playlist with your favorite songs. Short on time? Find a Valentine’s playlist
Cocktails/Mocktails-make a special concoction to loosen up or stick to a tried and true that you and yours love
Attire-send an invite stating what should be worn, from P.J.’s to Ballgowns, and make sure you are both dressed the part
Tips
Simply gathering elements together from around the house, you can create an intimate nook to be experienced with the one you love. Avoiding the crowds gives you the time to truly appreciate each other, talk about dreams and plans for the future, and fall in love with each other all over again.
