Romancing the Home

Five decor pieces that will make your crib the ultimate hot spot. By Viviane Kertesz

Luxurious Linens
Stoke the romantic fires in the bedroom with exquisite linens. Whether you like silk, satin, velvet, or finely woven cotton with a high thread count, there are bed linens out there worth the extra effort of changing the sheets. Climb in together and revel in the fresh, sexy feel.


Crystal Vase
Nothing says romance quite like flowers, and if you’ve got them, you need a stunning vase to put them in. Stock a classically cut model for those times when your sweetie brings home the posies. A vase full of floral brilliance will infuse any room with colour and the sweet scent of love.


Candlesticks
Lighting is everything: just imagine how dining by candlelight with long-stemmed candles can be infinitely more romantic than the day-old standard of a 60W-lightbulb. Try placing crystal candlesticks close to a tall crystal vase and rejoice in the sparkling reflections the flame creates.


Champagne Flutes
Since champagne flutes are traditionally only brought out for special occasions, they’re often associated with the happiest of moments: marriage proposals, wedding anniversaries, birthdays and Valentine’s Day. Keep a pair on hand to celebrate those romantically festive moments à deux—but also to pull them out for not-so-special dinners or whenever the mood strikes.


Breakfast-in-bed Tray
Not many home decor items are as functional as they are fashionable, but this is one of them. Whether you’re serving a cup of java or mimosas in crystal champagne flutes, surprising your lover with breakfast in bed screams: “I love you!” Add flair to your culinary offerings by placing a single flower in a small vase or directly on the tray.
