Valentines gifts for your home

By Tess Ritchie •

FacebookPinWhatsAppEmailTweet

It’s Valentine’s Day next week and, love it or hate it, single or taken, you can always use it as an excuse to treat your home to a little love inspired decor…

The Family Love Tree have found a perfect way to bring the Victorian iron bedhead into the 21st century. They’ve painted it fuchsia. The hot pink rattan and wood peacock bedhead is sure to make you (and your love) feel like a king and queen. $459 for queen size.

Create some atmosphere with M2Matiz’s love inspired art piece. Appropriately named Burning Love, the luMierebox is romantic with a touch of industrial. It’s backlit so the graffiti-look heart shines through the red, wax-polished plywood. $230 from Down That Little Lane.

Here’s one of Rob Ryan’s more recent, and especially sweet, works, We Had Everything. The simple colour palette means this piece of tapestry would look great in all kinds of homes. Already stretched onto a wooden frame, at 100×100 cm, it’s ready to hang and admire immediately. GBP 995 (equivalent to approx $1500) from The Rug Company.

Rob Ryan We Had EverythingIf you’ve always loved the marbled effect, then this Tall Bones Vase in Magenta Swirl by Dinosaur Designs is right up your ally. The way the bright pink swirls sit in the transparent resin looks so great you just want to touch it. It’s 28 cm high and $230

This cushion is a a bit like having a constant bunch of fresh flowers in your lounge – funky street style ones that is. It’s super vibrant with defined line work that makes the petals jump out. $98 from Langdon Ltd with an insert.

Table Tonic has Moroccan pouffes in just about every colour you can think of. The pinks and reds are stunning and would brighten any room in a flash. The quality, hand dyed leather and the simple design make these fancy footstools stand out. $199.

There’s something about candlelight that wins hearts hands down. Imagine these I Love You paper lanterns set up over a mantelpiece or on the balcony – anywhere really! They’re a Swedish design and have that look of sweet effortless style. Only $20 for all eight from Brown Paper Packages.

I love you lanterns

This one-off Charlotte rug pulls together nearly every shade of pink. The colours overlap and blend together while, overall, retaining a neat patchwork pattern. It’s a statement rug, all the way from Turkey, which you won’t find anywhere else. It’s $2,700 from Patchy Rugs.
