It’s that special time of the year, when love is celebrated all day, when romance is the norm and magic is in the air. Valentine’s Day is when we go the extra mile for our half and we pay attention to the tiniest details, from that big bow on her rose bouquet to your handwritten love note. There’s one thing though, that is so essential for an unforgettable experience.
There’s no better way to set the mood for a romantic dinner than to dim the lights. Science says that when we dim the lights our human brain adjusts to this change. When the lights are softer, the brain relaxes and enters a state of peace and tranquility, where we tend to forget about the stress of the day. When you think about it, we want our better half to be able to destress and be fully present with us during our special time together.
Below, we put together a list of 6 romantic lamps to help you set the mood for Valentine’s Day. Some you could gift, some you could use to actually set the mood for your intimate dinner or even revamp your home decor for this holiday of love.
