Let Your Love Shine with These Valentine’s Day Inspired Lighting Ideas

Add Ambiance with a Dimmer

Adding dimmers throughout your home will allow you to alter the mood in any room with a simple twist. Dimmers also conserve energy and extend the life of your bulbs.

Turn down the Wattage

Opt for lower wattage or lower lumen bulbs in areas where you’d like to add a little ambiance. Save brighter bulbs for reading lamps and work areas. This saves on energy as well.

Set the Mood with Fire

The soft romantic glow of a fireplace and candles create a warm, cozy Valentine’s Day atmosphere that’s sure to have your sweetheart snuggling up next to you.

Add a Rosy Glow

Give your usual lights a short reprieve and swap them for a few soft pink incandescent bulbs. They will soften and warm the room with a perfect, Valentine-inspired shade.  

Go Glamorous

Adding glamorous lightbulbs to your décor adds instant romance. Look for multi-faceted bulb options in LED and incandescent, amber marble incandescents, or stained glass bulbs if you’re feeling extra-adventurous.

Get Crafty

Valentine’s Day heart mason jars offer a simple and sweetly hand-made gift for your honey. All you need is a string of LED lights and a few simple items you may have around the house. Learn how.

Add Romance with Holiday Lights

Strategically placing a few strings of lights entwined with flowers or Valentine’s Day inspired garland can add a fun and romantic feel to any room. Want something more unique? Opt for red heart string lights  rather than your typical holiday string.

Give a Lampshade a Valentine-Inspired Makeover

For those with a little sewing expertise, these fun rose-covered lampshades make a unique gift for those with little ladies. 

Let It All Hang Out

Chandelier decorations such as strings of conversation hearts and bows can add a festive Valentine’s Day feel to existing lighting. SAFETY NOTE: If you’re not burning cool-LEDs, opt for firesafe materials or designs that place decorations far from heat producing bulbs.  

Brighten up Your Bling

LED light up hearts necklaces and flashing heart rings are a great way to light up Valentine’s Day for kids of all ages.
