- 1). Paint the walls a warm shade of red or pink. Scarlet, ruby, crimson or rose are all shades to consider using for this space. If you have a small living room, paint only one or two walls a shade of red or pink and paint the remaining walls a lighter color or a neutral hue to avoid closing it in with these rich colors.
- 2). Cover the floor with a soft carpet or area rug. A carpet or area rug with a deep pile creates a soft, pillow-like feeling underfoot, adding to the romantic vibe of this space.
- 3). Choose a couch and armchairs that are upholstered with a soft fabric, such as velvet, chenille or microfiber. Select a neutral color for these pieces and add a bit of spice with red or pink throw pillows and blankets.
- 4). Place the television in a cabinet that can be closed, allowing you to hide it when it is not in use to keep it from detracting from the romantic vibe of the space.
- 5). Cover the windows with floor-to-ceiling curtains. Choose curtains that are made of velvet or satin to play up the romance, or opt for a light and airy sheer fabric, which also creates a romantic feeling.
- 6). Display pictures of romantic locations, such as Paris or Venice. Incorporate pictures of you and your significant other on your wedding day or honeymoon.
- 7). Fill vases with decorative flower arrangements and set them out on coffee tables and shelves.
- 8). Hang candle sconces on the walls. Create a display of tea lights, pillar and taper candles on a decorative platter and place it on a coffee table for soft romantic lighting.
- 9). Set light fixtures on dimmers so you can lower the lights to set a romantic mood.
