With Valentine’s Day in our midst, we thought it would be fun to discuss how to add some romantic flare throughout your home. This doesn’t necessarily have to be for a date or special occasion. Perhaps you are simply wanting an area to look mor e timeless and lovely, but are not sure how to achieve your vision. In this article, we delve into what exactly makes a room look romantic and how to amp up this vibe in your own home.
Opt for an accented neutral color scheme.
Adding different hues of a vibrant color throughout an otherwise neutral color palette is one of the most surefire ways to create a classic romantic look. This can be achieved with accent chairs, throw pillows, floral arrangements, area rugs, wall art, and many other décor options.
Bonus Tip: If you are also trying to create a romantic setup for a date night, set out some wine and candles for two. You can’t get much more romantic than that!
Set the table.
There is hardly anything more lovely than a nice dinner. Even if you don’t actually eat at the table very often, having it set with candles, plates, and linens just makes the dining area look polished, inviting, and intentional as far as the effort you put into making guests feel welcome.

Bonus Tip: Simple touches such as fresh flowers and scent diffusers are great to keep your vanity looking stylish and elegant.
Incorporate curvy pieces.
When it comes to furniture, opt for curvier styles to achieve a more romantic look. Curves are softer than sharp angles, thus more aesthetically pleasing and inviting. Additionally, sofas and loveseats that curve inward encourage cuddling and conversation, both of which can be very romantic.
