Home Upgrades To Add Spark To Your Valentine’s Day
Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, and with Covid measures still in place, dining options may be limited to you for that perfect romantic date. But fear not! We’ve got some ideas to help you keep the romance alive, right at home. After all, home is where the heart is. So, without any further ado, here are home upgrade ideas that will add spark to any Valentine’s Day plans.
Love Tree
What better way to embody the enduring feelings you and your significant other have for each other than by planting a tree to symbolize it? Together, choose a tree that you’d both love to have in your own yard, nurture it, and enjoy the fruits of your labor (quite literally if you choose a fruit tree) when it grows tall and strong. The tree will stand as a beautiful reminder of your love for one another for many years to come and add curb appeal to your property. It’s a win-win.
Hot Tub
This may seem like the most obvious way to instantly increase the romance factor twenty-fold at home, and that’s because… well, it probably is. There’s a reason these luxury water features appear in just about every love-focused reality show – they’re an incubator for intimacy. But hot tubs offer more than romance. Finding the right hot tub for your home and putting it to good use can help decrease stress, provide therapy to achy muscles and joints, and draw guests for weekend gatherings year-round.
Steam Room
Things are getting steamy now! Literally. If hot tubs aren’t your style, maybe a steam room is a better fit for you. Create a luxurious home spa that’s sure to inspire romance by installing your own private wet-dry steam room. No need to venture out to the spa – you and your special someone can have it all right at home, and right next to the bedroom…
Fireplace
Once you’ve had a sensual steam session, get cozy and curl up by the fireplace with a glass of wine or whiskey. Don’t have a fireplace? This feature might be worth exploring. Not only can it provide a special kind of warmth and comfort on a cold night, but fireplaces also provide the right kind of ambiance for romance, creating soft natural mood lighting and the undeniable urge to curl up with that special someone in your life. If you’re not ready to tear down walls or take on the maintenance of a traditional wood burning fireplace, there are a number of alternative options to obtain this cozy fire esthetic, like gas fireplaces, wood burning stoves, and electronic fire features.
Wine Cooler
To ensure the wine you’re sipping by the fire is in its optimal form, consider upgrading your storage system from standard kitchen refrigerator or cabinet to wine cooler. Wine coolers ensure your bottles are stored at the ideal temperature, humidity, and position for ideal taste and longevity.
Bedroom Revitalization
This is an upgrade that can require very little financial investment. We’ve all heard the phrase, “This is where the magic happens.” But without the right setting and tone, the bedroom can be a place where those romantic feelings you’ve been building up all evening go to die… To ensure you inspire the romance instead of kill it, give your bedroom a little face lift. First, if at all possible, ensure this room is reserved for intimacy and sleeping, not work, unfolded laundry, miscellaneous storage, or TV binging. Next, consider how you might improve the design and mood of the room. A fresh coat of paint can go a long way, as can new curtains and bedspreads. Keep clutter off of your floor, bedside tables, and bureaus, but do reserve space for candles or incense.
You and your special someone can have a romantic Valentine’s Day right at home. We hope these ideas spark more for you and your significant other. From all of us at CBM Mart, happy Valentine’s Day.
