A bright living room decorated for Valentine's Day with red heart balloons, garlands, and a heart wreath on the wall radiates love. Red and pink cushions are on the sofas, red balloons dot the floor, and plants and framed photos add a cozy touch.

Let there be love….

By Elizabeth Hayman · · 2 min read

A white ceramic vase adorned with multiple red lips—a playful nod to love—sits on a marble-topped table, filled with dried brown leaves. Nearby, a red and pink candlestick with a lit red candle rests atop a stack of magazines.

It’s stunning even as a stand-alone piece, or you can team it with something long-lasting like pussy willow stems to serve its purpose.

but I would choose the bedroom and team it up with crisp white bed linen for a pop of colour! 

An open box of matches with red tips. The vintage-style label features a large yellow heart in the center, surrounded by red banners reading “LOVE HEART” and “LUXURY MATCHES”—the perfect touch for sharing love and warmth.

Not in a fire starter sort of way! Matches are the new big thing in homes and interiors stores everywhere, so you won’t need to look far to find beautifully packaged strikes like this one from Annabelle James.

But I do love decorative cookware, and I’ve been a collector of Staub cocottes for years, and this heart-shaped beauty is next on my wish list.

A super clever mini romantic scene under a cloche. There are several designs within this My Little range of lamps, so if love is not on your agenda, you could perhaps go for the Kong version (yes, that would be King Kong)

A glass dome encases a miniature park scene with a green bench, black lamppost, two red heart-shaped balloons symbolizing love, and a small green bush, all set on a round grassy base with a black rim.

A framed artwork features a large, textured red heart in the center symbolizing love. Around the heart, black text reads “LOVE IS ALL AROUND,” with each word positioned on a different side of the wooden frame against a white background.

I love this tufty heart picture from Oliver Bonas, and as Hugh Grant famously once said, “If you look for it, I’ve got a sneaky feeling you’ll find that love actually is all around.”
