It all begins by setting the mood and what better way than a romantic, candlelit dinner at home. You don’t need to go crazy – even a Big Mac on a nice plate by candlelight can go a long way towards setting the stage for romance!

For an easy at home date night idea, draw a romantic bath for either your partner or (if you’re lucky enough to have a big enough tub) for both of you! Fill it with their favorite bubble bath and again, light some candles! Some relaxing music in the background and you’re all set! No tub, no problem? A heated shower with candles and music will also do the trick!

Netflix and Chill is a thing for a reason! Cuddle up with your partner and cue up your favorite movie. Need some inspiration? Entertainment Weekly put together their list of the 25 best romantic movies on Netflix.

Feeling adventurous? This racy game of Truth or Dare features 100 seductions that will heat up any couple’s love life in the bedroom and beyond. The red-hot box comes with 50 sticks to be pulled one at a time, revealing a sexy truth on one side and a dirty dare on the other. 

The power of touch is strong. What better way to reconnect with your partner than giving each other date night at home massages. Try a scented massage cream that will smell as good as it feels!

This date night at home idea is for the more adventurous couple. Try a Nuru Massage Sheet and a Nuru Massage Gel for an unforgettable fun evening! Not sure what Nuru is? It’s a type of massage involving full body contact where both you are and your partner are nude and coated with gel, traditionally made from Nori seawood. The sheet will help protect your furniture!

Feeling artistic? Let your partner be your canvas and use an erotic body paint to paint your partner! Fantasy Gifts NJ has a great selection of edible body paints in both chocolate and fruit flavors!

Enhance your partner’s other sensations by blindfolding them. The act of blindfolding their partner and they mystery of what is to come is one of the most powerful sensations. Blindfolding your partner will make touch, taste and smell much more potent!

Highlight the sense of touch with a Wartenberg Wheel. This toy might look like something you’d find in a tailor’s workroom, but actually it was designed as a medical device to test sensory responses. So of course, it’s a great sensory toy. And a wonderful addition to your BDSM toolbox! Roll the Adrenaline Spikes Metal Pinwheel across your skin to create a variety of sensations, from tingly to prickly! The more pressure you use, the more the experience will sting. Start with light pressure and work your way up to added pressure. Remember to establish a safe word and respect your partner’s wishes!

Cuffs, restraints and ties are the perfect tools to control your partner.  When your partner’s movement is inhibited by cuffs, restraints and ties, they are completely at your mercy.  Enhance the eroticism of this experience by bringing other sensory play into the experience.  Perhaps a blindfold to remove the sense of sight or a ball gag to remove your partner’s voice.  Or try candle wax play, tickling or spanking – your partner will be powerless to stop you!
