4 Exciting Valentine’s Day Date Ideas

Valentine’s day is just around the corner, and if you have a significant other, you’re both probably wondering what to do to celebrate the day of love. Valentine’s Day this year falls on a Tuesday, so an extended, late-night date may not be ideal. Below are a few relatively inexpensive but still memorable date ideas to try out this V-Day!

COLOR ME MINE

Color Me Mine is a great idea for a date or even just a place to take yourself on if you happen to be without a date this Valentine’s day. The essential idea behind Color Me Mine is to go to a store where they sell premade pottery items, like bowls, cups, coasters, and all sorts of other fun shapes and items. You choose one of these items and choose some paint colors to paint it! You can even choose something plain without any designs on it and freehand a design or sketch of your own! Then, when you’re finished, you leave the finished piece at the place so they can put it in the kiln to fire it up and make it look glossy. You come back within a week to pick it up and you and your partner have a memorable and decorative piece to remember your Valentine’s day together! 

GET PERMANENT JEWELRY

Permanent jewelry has been all the rage recently, and we see it trending all over social media from TikTok to Instagram. These are very versatile, can be worn by virtually anyone, and you and your partner can find the best pieces to fit you both! Most people opt for bracelets, and yes these bracelets are welded around your arm, but no need for the term welding to scare you. Most pieces are usually 14 karat gold, which is great for all skin types and won’t cause any color changes or problems to sensitive skin. The best part is, if after a few weeks of trying out this permanent jewelry situation and it doesn’t seem to work for you, they’re thin and dainty enough to just snip off with a pair of scissors! Here are two places in Atlanta you can visit to get some permanent jewelry for you and your loved one on Valentine’s day. 

AT HOME DINNER DATE

There’s nothing more intimate than cooking dinner together and sitting down to enjoy the blood, sweat, and tears you guys put in to create this delicious meal. You can each decide on different courses and help each other cook whatever your heart desires. If you want to keep carrying on Valentine’s day theme, try out some of these heart-shaped food ideas, such as soups, pizzas, and so many brownies, cookies, and other sweet treats. You can dress this date up or down and there are no hassles about making sure you get to a reservation on time. Light some candles, dim the lights, play your favorite songs, and cook to your hearts’ desires!

GAME NIGHT

Another at-home but less cheesy (and also less work) an idea is to have a game night with your significant other! Sometimes, there’s no better feeling than sitting in your sweats with your partner just being able to chat and cuddle on the couch. You can keep yourself busy by doing just about anything, but if you’re tired of watching the same old movies and tv shows, try your hand at playing some new games! You can get some board games, learn some card games, or even go online to find games like this, where you get to ask questions and learn a lot about each other.
