E
ven before quarantining was de rigueur, many people preferred
to celebrate Valentine's Day indoors to avoid the hustle and
bustle of the holiday. Now, although we may be limited as to
where we can go out, there have never been more fun date options for
staying in. The trick, whether planning a date or being in a relationship, is
to really commit to it. Go all out with the decor, outfits, and food, whatever
your date's theme may be. Below, we share ten ideas for a memorable
Valentine's Day at home (and most of them can be adapted as an equally
fun treat with friends).
1. Have an Indoor Picnic
Spread out on the living room floor with a gourmet
spread (try this lobster roll and sea salt brownies kit from
Maine) and bottle of bubbles. Make sure to set the scene
with a cheerful picnic blanket and pack a basket—they are
worthwhile purchases if you don't already have them.
