Valentines Day for Singles

Valentine's Day for Singles

This is how I manage Valentine's Day as a Singleton

Make one room special - I shall be using my living room

Get the room warm

One lamp on which is a retro style rocket lamp with 0.5cm glitter in ... when switched on the glitter moves and creates shapes all around the room

Candles ... I have several candles bought and given, so time to display and light them all around the room

Wear something red ... I have a lovely red lace and sequin tunic to wear with a skirt

Perfume for the ladies ... cologne for the men

On the door of the living room is Daniel Craig as 007 James Bond wearing a tuxedo ... ... ... you may have a photo of a loved one, put a red rose near it

Music will be The Gaelic Collection double cd by Runrig featuring Donnie Munro

Food - anything you enjoy. For me it will be Greek Salad

Drink - a bottle of rose wine and lemonade

M|y favourite love / romantic song is Move Closer by Phyllis Nelson ... I shall listen to this during the day on the laptop in my workroom upstairs

Skype between friends using some of the ideas I have outlined above

Singleton or not, that strikes a lovely note with me @Anonymous

Red being my favourite colour of all time. Candles do set a mood particularly if they are scented and plentiful.

Love the thought of your lava lamp.....as you say, very retro in the 70's and are making a real comeback now. We had two but never replaced them. Very soothing and hypnotic.

Also your chosen wine is my favourite.

Sounds lovely

Thank you @Cleoriff

Luckily none of my cats have been bothered with candles.

No mine tend to keep away as well @Anonymous . I have also started using those wax burners.I have three. They take scented wax melts in the top with a tealight (8hr) candle warming in the base.

Like these

and I have one like this

This one, you plug in, it has bulb inside (which heats and melts the wax) and the lights change colour.

Fills the room with a lovely scent all day long.

How beautiful @Cleoriff

Mine tend to be Yankee Candles in jars.

Yankee candles are great @Anonymous

I have two I was given at Christmas still to be used.

That sounds like a lovely day @Anonymous Thanks for sharing

I have to say I'm definitely agreeing on the candles, wine and nice meal, single or not

Just a Skype call to Mauy for me, don't need the cologne

Hope you all enjoy the day in your various ways though
