Next, let’s consider valentine’s table decorations. These do not have to be expensive to provide a dramatic effect. Purchase valentine’s tablecloth linens; red and white gingham will also work well. The one shown was purchased from JOANN Fabric & Craft Stores.
Add some plastic flutes (purchased from Dollar Tree), white plates, heart beads (purchased at Target), and a few candles surrounded by red rocks, and you have an elegant and fun table for Valentine’s Day. For a very pretty table and to break up the red, layer the table with a white cloth.

Because Valentine’s Day is meant to be whimsical, consider decorating an antique chair with some bows and ribbons for that added touch of fun.

If you enjoy scrapbooking and have some materials in your theme colors available, trace some hearts using a cookie cutter.
Staple the hearts to a long heavy felt ribbon (hopefully left from Christmas) and add a raffia bow at the end and create an easy banister decoration. The ribbon was tied with a wire tie rather than tape to keep it sturdy.
