Things You'll Need:
- Wooden futon frame
- Futon mattress or cushions
- Throw pillows
- Blankets
- Bed rest pillows
-
Step 1
Buy or build a wooden futon frame. A twin or single-size frame will fit 2 people snugly. For more elbow room, choose a double-size frame.
-
Step 2
Choose a comfortable futon pad or mattress that will fit your frame. Covers are available for the pads, or you can fashion your own out of throw blankets that will match your decor.
-
Step 3
Pick out throw pillows for each side of the courting seat. This will provide a comfortable spot for you and your spouse to curl up on Valentine's Day or any other day.
-
Step 1
Spread out soft blankets on the floor to build the base of a temporary courting seat for you and your partner. Put your courting chair in front of the fireplace to enjoy Valentine's Day together in front of the crackling flames.
-
Step 2
Arrange two bed rest pillows on top of the blankets. Bed rest pillows have arms and provide good back support. Overlap one arm of each pillow so that they are almost at an angle, rather than directly side by side.
-
Step 3
Spread a fleece blanket over the bed rest pillows so you cannot distinguish where one pillow ends and the other one begins. Sharing one seat together in close proximity lends a closeness that emphasizes the point that you and your spouse are joined together as one unit.
