Since ancient times, the role of such a present has been valentines, such special hearts on which they write warm declarations of love, and this can be done anonymously.

Valentine's Day is approaching, the celebration of which invariably takes place in a romantic atmosphere. Most effective method create it - decorate your own home with cute decor, symbolizing the strong feelings of lovers. We share simple but effective decor ideas for the most sensual holiday of the year.
Personal book of love
It is not difficult to make such decor. You will need ribbons, white and red paper, and several hardcover books. Wrap them in red paper and glue hearts with inscriptions onto the binding. All that remains is to stack the books and tie them with ribbon.
It is advisable to choose books whose themes correspond to the holiday. For example, suitable romance novels. After all, your partner may have a desire to leaf through the book.
More difficult option– make personal love books. Take several photo albums, in each of which leave required quantity pages. The rest can be carefully cut off. Fill photo albums with pictures of them together and other mementos, such as letters.
Tree on which words of love grow
To make this decor you will need several oddly shaped branches and colored paper. Place the branch in a vase and hang paper hearts with themed messages on it. For example, you can write declarations of love or best qualities a loved one who delights. If desired, the branch can be coated with white, pink or red paint from an aerosol can.
Unusual contrast card
It is impossible to imagine Valentine's Day without the exchange of “Valentines”. A handmade card will show the strength of feelings much better than one purchased in a store. Fold a sheet of thick paper in half. Outline the outline of the heart and draw stripes on it. Fill in the outlines of the stripes with black paint and the hearts with small red buttons glued with acrylic or silicone glue.
A picture is worth a thousand words
Surely there are a lot of different buttons stored in the house that have no worthy use. They can be used to create a romantic picture. Using thread or chalk, mark a contour on the fabric according to the size of the selected frame. Try several options for placing buttons inside the outline and choose the one you like best. All that remains is to sew the buttons to the fabric and trim it so that it is slightly larger than the frame. This is necessary to securely fix our painting in the frame.
Romantic garland of countless hearts
Even a child can make such a garland, and it looks more than impressive. Fold thin strips of multi-colored paper in half and bend in the middle. Fasten the free edges of the strips with a stapler or simply glue them together. The first heart is ready. Then thread a couple more strips through it and repeat the procedure described. All you have to do is be patient and assemble the garland of the required length.
Another option is to make a large heart consisting of several small ones. Glue the edges of narrow strips of paper folded together. The two stripes in the middle remain free. The free edges of the remaining strips are glued to this middle on both sides.
Love with coffee aroma
Ordinary candles in red and white colors are a good, but a little boring decor option for Valentine's Day. We suggest you diversify it - make your own candlestick that will exude a pleasant coffee aroma. Simply fill a short glass container with coffee beans and place a flat candle in it.
Souvenirs for friends from the heart
The basis for making such decor, which can be used as a souvenir for friends or to decorate your home, is hearts made of multi-colored cardboard. In order for the threads to be held in the desired position in the picture, it is necessary to cut its edges in a zigzag shape. Tie the first turn of the thread on the base heart. Use the free long edge to wrap the heart in a circle. In this case, the thread connects the opposite cutouts along the edges of the card.
Garland of pleasant memories
Most photographs, no matter how important they are, are reviewed extremely rarely. So why not make Valentine's Day an occasion to cherish the moments spent with your loved one? Secure the printed photos with a decorative clothespin on a long ribbon and decorate with hearts cut out of paper. If you can’t find clothespins, glue the pictures with any universal glue.
DIY love elixir
Regular Coca-Cola glass bottles, decorated with your own hands, turns into a love elixir. Remove labels from bottles and thoroughly remove any remaining paper. Then degrease the glass by wiping it with alcohol - this is necessary so that the paint is securely fixed to the surface. Acrylic or stained glass paints are suitable for covering glass.
Cupid's arrows that you can't escape from
The basis for Cupid's arrows, which can be given to loved ones or used to decorate the interior, are wooden barbecue sticks or cocktail straws. The tip and feathers for the arrow are cut out of dense fabric, for example, felt. Identical parts are glued together on the “shaft”, thereby being fixed to it.
Love message on bottles
Wine bottles can help convey a message to your loved one. Carefully clean them of labels, degrease the surface with alcohol and cover with acrylic paint. Special paints for glass, which are sold in craft stores, are also suitable. When the painted surface is dry, draw the desired letters on it. The decorative composition will be complemented by branches of artificial plants placed in bottles.
A heart you want to eat
Decor from fruits or vegetables - original way decorate festive table, Any oblong red or pink fruit will do. For example, tomatoes are “cream”. Cut several vegetables in half diagonally and secure the different halves with a decorated toothpick. Appetizing hearts are ready.
A heart filled to the brim with love
What will it take to make a decor that symbolizes a heart filled to the brim with love? Jars with screw caps, acrylic paint gold color, bright ribbons, multi-colored beads. To ensure that the paint adheres well to the glass surface, do not forget to clean it and degrease it with alcohol. Instead of beads, you can use any bright little things.
Decor that will please those with a sweet tooth
Decor for the holiday table can be made in a matter of moments. Simply fill glass vases or tall glasses with colorful candies.
Cozy panel in country style
As a basis for the panel, you can use cardboard or a small board covered with fabric. The heart itself is made from short colored sticks. Draw the outline of a heart on the fabric and glue the sticks onto it using acrylic glue. Then you can start filling the outline. Three or four layers of sticks glued on top of each other are enough to create an exclusive home decor.
Simple but effective decoration for a festive dinner
Paper and scissors are all you need for a cute decoration that will decorate your holiday table. Fold the paper several times, draw a heart on it and cut it out. The more hearts there are on the table, the more elegant it will look.
Symbol of love using quilling technique
A heart made from many pieces of paper rolled into a tube can be used as a hanging or table decoration. Cut out a heart from thick cardboard. Glue thick paper tubes along its edges in a vertical position. For structural reliability, they can also be glued together. Now you need to fill the heart with other paper tubes, but loosely twisted. We recommend making them in different sizes - this way the composition will look more impressive. Additionally, the heart can be decorated with ribbons or lace.
A love game that never gets boring
As the classic said, “our whole life is a game.” That means love too. This attitude towards the most wonderful feeling can be expressed by decorating the interior with a decorative garland. Heart cards are its constituent elements. Using a hole punch, holes are made in them, through which a thin red ribbon is threaded. Additionally, the garland can be decorated with narrow strips of fabric tied to a base ribbon.
Sparkling wreath of hearts
The basis for the manufacture of such hanging decor are metal containers from “pill” candles. They are easy to bend into a heart shape. Then the elements of the garland are glued together using silicone or acrylic glue. All that remains is to decorate the wreath with ribbons and hang it on the wall or door.
Newspaper panel with good news
Replace a framed picture or photo with a newspaper page. The inscription can be applied to it using a stencil with letters or drawn by hand.
Strawberry hearts in champagne
Hearts cut from strawberries will look especially impressive on low champagne glasses. We recommend choosing medium-ripe berries, otherwise the edible decoration will not be firmly fixed on the glass.
Bright garland of voluminous hearts
A festive garland of paper hearts is an interior decor for Valentine's Day that will definitely not go unnoticed. Cut out hearts of the same size from multi-colored paper. Then place the two hearts together and stitch down the middle. Make a hole in the top, and then bend the halves of the hearts. All that remains is to thread the ribbons through the holes and tie them to the base.
A heart pieced together
A puzzle is a thing that quickly gets boring and is used quite rarely, but you don’t dare throw it away. But you can give the old puzzle new life. Just glue its parts together in the shape of a heart and decorate the resulting wreath with ribbons.
Romantic panel using string art technique
The basis for the decorative panel for Valentine's Day is a painted square board into which nails are driven along the drawn outline of the heart. A thread is tied to one of the nails, which then clings to the others in a chaotic manner. By the end of working on the panel, the thread should wrap around each nail. The greater the distance between adjacent nails, the more thread layers the panel should have.
Unusual wreath made of wood
If you have a thick branch and a jigsaw at your disposal, then you should try to make an original wreath from wooden saw cuts. To make this decor look elegant, we recommend making the cuts thin. Cut out a heart outline 8-10 cm wide from cardboard and glue the first layer of cuts onto it. Then glue the second one so that the wood cuts cover the gaps between the elements of the first layer. To texture natural wood remained visible, paint it in light colors.
If the idea of sawing wood seems too complicated, then use hand-painted paper hearts instead of saw cuts.
To make a candlestick symbolizing a burning heart, you will need glass jars, newspaper or music paper, and decorative twine. To give the paper an aged look, you can moisten it with strong coffee or tea. After drying, the desired shapes are cut out of the paper and glued to a jar tied with decorative twine. In a similar way, using carved paper napkins, you can make other candlesticks.
“Heart” decor made of cardboard and threads
Wrap hearts a couple of centimeters wide, cut out of cardboard, with thick thread. Tie the remaining free edge into a loop. Such hearts are used as independent hanging decor or elements for a garland.
A laconic panel with a textured paper heart
A cardboard box with voluminous sides was used as a frame for the panel. If one is not found, then you can glue thin wooden beams around the perimeter of the cardboard base. The heart, the central element of the decorative composition, is made of paper, the edges of which are cut. To make the panel look three-dimensional, several identical hearts, bent in the middle, are glued onto a cardboard base.
For wine lovers
Preparing materials for such a decorative panel can take a lot of time - after all, you need to collect a couple of dozen wine corks. The corks are then glued to a thick wooden or cardboard base using construction adhesive. Carefully paint the corks in colors ranging from pale pink to dark fuchsia, creating a gradient effect. The panel can be supplemented with a thematic inscription.
