How to Set the Sweetest Valentine’s Breakfast Table Around
Few things beat breakfast in bed, but for a new take on the first meal of your Valentine’s Day, how about setting up a festive and flirty breakfast table?! This is great for couples, families, or groups of friends alike. It’s a great way to kick off the day with an extra dose of love. Or save it for Valentine’s night if you’d rather go with a breakfast-for-dinner theme!
(Love of my) Life Cereal Box
First, you gotta give your Valentine something to eat! Come up with a punny play on your favorite cereal (Honey Bunches of Oats, Lucky Charms) or steal ours by downloading this colorful template.
2. Candy Filled Vases: Can’t resist stocking up on bags and bags of Valentine’s candy but aren’t quite sure what to do with it? Or just looking to change up your tablescape? Put two vases together, fill with all your favorite heart-themed candies, and add flowers!
To make sure the smaller vase doesn’t slide around in the large one, use Velcro Brand tape to keep things in place.
Striped Heart Straws
Few things make a table instantly more festive than striped paper straws. Give them a little something extra by adding red foam or felt hearts.
To create ours, we pressed a cookie cutter into foam, cut out the heart, then simply cut two slits to slide the straw through.
