Since not all of us can build an entire room from chocolate or have the luxury of creating an outdoor room for 2 overlooking the ocean, there are little ways to bring romance to your table:
1. Candles – the more the merrier. Candlelight not only feels warm and romantic, but make you look younger.
2. Create a menu – it shows how much thought you’ve put into the evening. Consider theming the courses around romantic places you’ve been together or create a menu around your significant other’s favorite foods.
3. Cinnamon ice cubes – to refresh cold drinks, freeze cinnamon hearts in ice. Fill up your ice tray half full with water. Freeze. Once frozen, add a cinnamon heart to each cube and fill the remainder with water and freeze.
4. Love notes – I love the idea of hiding little love notes. Check out this package of sexy Valentine’s messages by Weakness via Etsy – $4.99 (for 12). This would be easy enough to do yourself…and a bit more personal.
