The best part about a staycation is that you can personalize it in any way you desire. I've listed my personal essentials for an at-home Valentine's celebration below. Feel free to let me know what you would add!
1. Breakfast in bed. Nothing starts off a relaxing day like a homemade breakfast in bed. If you're with a significant other, I guarantee you'll earn brownie points for such a nice gesture.
2. Scented candles. In addition to their lovely scents, Natural Life candles brighten the room with encouraging messages on the holders. This one in particular is the perfect gift to show your appreciation for someone with its loving note. Why not add a touch of positivity to your living space?
3. A good book. Alexa Chung's It is an easy read, but an entertaining one nonetheless. A light read like this keeps the drama out of the relaxing holiday while maintaining the positive vibes.
4. Spa treatments. Pamper yourself. Paint your nails or try a new makeup look. There is something refreshing about at-home beauty treatments, especially when you give yourself the time to do them.
5. Tea and chocolates. Finish off the day in the most relaxing way possible. If you're with someone else, take this time to reminisce about the lovely (and inexpensive!) day you've just had. The tea and chocolates will only add to the coziness of the setting.
However you celebrate, I wish you a wonderful and loving Valentine's Day! Let me know how you'll be celebrating in the comments below. ♡
