Valentine’s Day Dinner Décor Ideas 2012
Every year, 14th February is celebrated by lovers asValentine’s Day. We all know how it started, today the gesture is a simple one, appreciated and shared across cultures and geographical boundaries: To celebrate the bond of love that you share with your better half.
Valentine’s Day 2012 is but a few days away, and shopping malls and streets are colored red with heart shaped balloons, roses and ribbons. From Valentine’s Day cards to Roses and flower deliveries, there is something that you can do to show your beloved that she is special and cared for. Sure you’ll order flowers and a Valentine’s Day gift for her as usual, but this year, try doing a little extra effort to pamper the love of your life.
This year, Timeless Wrought Iron decided to help you out in planning the perfect Valentine’s Day dinner for your beloved. In our last post, we had put together a list of Wrought Iron items that you can use to plan a beautiful, cozy and romantic dinner at your home to celebrate Valentine’s Day. You can find these items here.
So, now that you have the props, it’s time to get to work!
Use the wrought iron floor lamp to get the ideal lighting effect in your living room. We suggest you set it up in a cozy nook with an end table underneath. Place a vase – the wrought iron and glass vase – on the table with fresh red roses in it. You can also add some colored stones to the vase to make better use of the light and bring more focus to the vase. While the wrought iron vase will complement the floor lamp, it will also act as a beautiful focal point to your living room.
Try a few wrought iron candle holders with red and white candles – these can be fat ones for a more relaxed setting or classically tapered to suit your mood and preference – but only one or two will be enough. Avoid overusing any one particular kind of item as it loses its significance that way. You can use balloons, heart shaped of course, for a more festive look. Just a single bunch, and if you use curled ribbon trims to hold it together, that would be nicer.
As far as the food is concerned, it will be a plus point if you can cook it yourself. She will be impressed by the effort you put into the evening. You can look online for ideas and easy recipes. But even if you order the food from a takeaway, your wonderful presentation will be enough to win her heart. For this purpose, try a beautiful wrought iron and ceramic serving casserole or platter.
White dishes will complement the black wrought iron on the table to perfection. You can use rose shaped wrought iron napkin rings or lovely butterfly shaped ones. These will complement the general black and white look on your dining table.
To add a touch of color, try red candles in wrought iron candle holders and a wrought iron and glass vase with just a stem or two of beautiful red roses.
Some fruit on a marble and wrought iron serving platter or wrought iron and glass fruit basket will add more color and make the meal look more inviting.
Add a touch of rose petals and you are good to go.
