Whether it’s a dinner for 2 or a dinner for all your besties, create a fun boho romantic table scape. The first step to creating this table scape is to use macrame placemats. Our Boho Macrame Indoor/Outdoor Placemats are the perfect option (as shown in the photo above) with their hand-knotted artwork.

The next step is to add some vases and pampas grass in varying colors and sizes. To really tie in the Valentine’s theme, purchase small heart shaped gems and spread them across the table for a romantic touch. Add some tiny tea light candles, and now your table is all set. All that's left now is to serve some delicious food for your guests.

Make a Romantic Atmosphere with Candles

Nothing is more romantic than candles. They create a soothing, intimate atmosphere that’s perfect for special occasions. To set the mood, try using candles in shades of red and pink. Place them around the room- on top of the mantel, on the windowsill, or kitchen counterspace. Candles are such a simple way to create a warm and cozy ambiance. There is nothing more soothing than enjoying a conversation with a friend with the glow of candlelight.
