Another year has gone by, and it's almost time to re-celebrate the love in our lives. We've become fairly good at becoming creative with our festivities since the pandemic, haven't we? Valentine's Day has always been about telling the people that matter that we love them, and love is exactly the vibration we should be channeling our energy into right now, more than ever. Going out on Valentine's Day can be risky these day because of the on going pandemic but that doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy and celebrate loves dy with your special someone. Staying indoors and organizing a romantic date night that will be less expensive and more memorable than any restaurant supper is possible!

Whether you want to harness your inner kid and defeat your significant other in Mario Kart or you want to spice things up (in the kitchen, of course! ), here are four cozy dates that will keep you feeling the love without emptying your wallet.

1.  DIY Home Spa

Candles. Oils for massage. Bath bombs with a pleasant odor.

When someone mentions Spa, these are the first things that pop to mind. Life doesn't get any better than your date treating you to a massage or a relaxing bath accompanied by wine or champagne. Ask your date if they are okay with a Spa at-home date, and if they are, don't back down. Allow your imaginations to run free. Consider the fragrances that make you joyful and cared for. Consider what will make your date pleased. And then plan from there.

2.  Candlelight Dinner

Nothing beats a candle-lit dinner in your own home. Don't underestimate your ability to turn your home into a love magnet! Fill a fireplace with tall candles if you have one. If you don't have any, place them on a flat surface. It'll have a significant impact! To create the perfect ambiance, include flower petals, soothing music, and dim lighting. Cooking together can be a lot of flirty fun. The obvious choice is aphrodisiac foods.

3. Make a Living Room Fort

You don't have to be a child to construct an incredible fort. In fact, you're probably better at fort-building now than you were when you were ten. You and your partner may create a comfortable area in your living room to make it feel like an entirely new space for a short period of time. It's similar to going camping (without having to camp in the February freeze). To establish the mood, experiment with throw cushions and lighting. You'll never want to leave your enchanting new home.

4.  Learn a New Craft Together

It's never too late to learn something new in a relationship, whether you've been together for years or this is your first Valentine's Day together. Spend Valentine's Day crafts by downloading knitting or watercolor painting lessons. If you make a mistake, remember that you're all in this together.
