Love is in the air and with that comes Valentine鈥檚 Day!聽
Unlike Christmas or Halloween, Valentine鈥檚 Day isn鈥檛 a holiday many people spend weeks leading up to with shopping and decorations. It鈥檚 a short lived holiday. Some people may not want to spend money on decor that they鈥檒l keep up for one or two weeks in February.聽
Although Valentine鈥檚 Day may not be the biggest holiday on the calendar, that doesn鈥檛 mean it鈥檚 a holiday you can鈥檛 decorate for at all. There are plenty of Valentine鈥檚 Day decor items that can be kept up well into the spring, especially if you choose your decor items wisely.聽聽
Wreaths and Door Decorations
It鈥檚 not uncommon for people to keep wreaths or another type of decoration on their door up year round. There are wreaths and other door decorations for every occasion and season – Christmas, winter, spring, Easter, summer and more. This includes Valentine鈥檚 Day.聽
When a person thinks of a Valentine鈥檚 Day wreath or door sign, it鈥檚 likely they envision something full of hearts, but that鈥檚 not always the case. There are plenty of different options that don鈥檛 include hearts or something specific to love day. A great option is to decorate your door with a wreath that has a combination of any of the three colors: pink, white or red.聽
Pink, or pink and white together, will not only be a great Valentine鈥檚 Day decor item, but is great to keep up into the spring, because they are both spring colors as well.聽
Flower Arrangements聽
While real flowers won鈥檛 live long enough to stay up throughout the spring, fake flower arrangements make great decor.聽
Craft stores offer a wide variety of flowers and you can easily make your own Valentine鈥檚 Day arrangement or buy pre-arranged ones. Again, any pink, white or red arrangements are perfect for Valentine鈥檚 Day.聽
The great thing about flower arrangements is that they can be easily altered. Maybe you have a pink and white flower arrangement for Valentine鈥檚 Day.- simply add some yellow (or any other spring color) flowers and the arrangement is now fit to stay up through the season.聽
Throw Pillows
Throw pillows are another great item to use as Valentine鈥檚 Day decor.
Many Valentine鈥檚 Day pillows will have words on them such as, 鈥渓ove,鈥� 鈥渒isses,鈥� or 鈥渉ugs,鈥� all of which don鈥檛 necessarily have to do with Valentine鈥檚 Day. Pillows like these that have a subtle hint to Valentine鈥檚 Day are excellent to keep up through spring, or even year round.聽
Other throw pillows might have pink hearts on them but have no words on them, which can also be kept up in the spring. Pillows like these are especially excellent if they match your room鈥檚 theme or color scheme.聽
Wall Art聽
Lastly, there are plenty of different Valentine鈥檚 Day wall art that can be kept up after the holiday to give your home a touch of love.聽
Much like throw pillows, simple paintings or signs that have one word on them or maybe a short phrase make great decorations. The wall art might have a solid or patterned background and say things like 鈥渓ove,鈥� 鈥渓ove birds鈥� or 鈥渉ugs and kisses,鈥� all which make an excellent accent piece for your walls. The wall art could also be a painting of hearts or a heart, a collage or something else that doesn鈥檛 specify that it鈥檚 for Valentine鈥檚 Day.聽
No matter what you decide on, most Valentine鈥檚 Day items will make great decor well into the springtime and give your home just the right amount of love.聽
