1. Decorate your Front Porch
When it comes to farmhouse Valentine decor, the front porch is a great place to start. Hang a sweet wreath on your door and add some Valentine’s Day-themed pillows or throws to your porch furniture. Repurpose your planters’ Christmas greens by adding in some Valentine’s Day decorations like heart sprigs, ribbons in red and pink, or even silk roses.
2. Create a Mantel Display
If you have a fireplace, make use of it this Valentine’s Day by creating a mantel display. Hang a heart garland, add some framed printable art, arrange some candles, and sprinkle in some other Valentine’s Day decorations like tiny vases full of fresh flowers or bowls filled with conversation hearts.
Another great way to decorate your mantle is to use some simple farmhouse decor items that you may already have around the house. Farmhouse signs, Mason jars, and even burlap banners are all great choices. Fill the jars with candy, sparkly vase filler, or other small Valentine’s Day decor pieces. Use some pretty ribbon or some rustic twine to add a touch of farmhouse charm.
3. Make Hearts out of Natural Materials
One of the best things about Valentine decor is that you can DIY many of the decorations. A great example of this is making hearts out of natural materials. All you need is some burlap, jute, yarn, or even tree bark. Then, simply cut out heart shapes and add them to garlands, table vignettes, empty spaces on your shelves, or anywhere else you want to add a touch of farmhouse charm. Or, wind the yarn around wire heart shapes to create adorable wall decor!
4. Add “Surprise” Valentine Decor to your Existing Decor
One fun way to decorate for Valentine’s Day is to add in some “surprise” Valentine elements to your decor. For example, you could add removable heart stickers to your existing wall art, place red decor items like vases or bowls in strategic locations, hang some strings of hearts from the doorway, or even hide small Valentine’s Day gifts around your home for the finder to open. These little surprises will add a touch of Valentine’s Day fun to your farmhouse decor.
5. Decorate with Rustic Signs
Rustic farmhouse signs are a popular decor item and they can easily be incorporated into Valentine’s Day displays. You could make your own sign using a piece of wood and some paint or stencils, or you could purchase a ready-made sign from a store like Michaels or Hobby Lobby. Dollar Tree also has some great farmhouse-themed Valentine’s Day signs that would be perfect for your decor so be sure to check there too.
6. Incorporate Valentine’s Day Colors into your Decor
A more subtle way to add a romantic vibe to your farmhouse decor is to incorporate the colors of Valentine’s Day into your color palette. You can do this by choosing red, pink, and white accent pieces like throw blankets, pillows, vases, and even wall art. These items do not need to be Valentine-themed, but adding in a few Valentine’s Day colors will definitely give your farmhouse decor a festive flair.

Directions

3. Attach the felt hearts to the center of each burlap shape using adhesive; You can use fabric glue or hot glue, or you can purchase felt hearts that already have adhesive backs.
