SM Stationery·February 19, 2025

If you think Valentine’s Day is for couples only, think again! It’s the perfect opportunity to celebrate with your group of best friends. Galentine's Day is all about cherishing those incredible women in your life who always have your back. Whether it’s your ride-or-die for childhood or sisters from another mother, gather your girls for a fun-filled day about laughter, love, and creating unforgettable memories together.

SM Stationery is here with some fun ideas to make the most of your celebration:

1. Brunch or Dinner

Hosting a delightful brunch or dinner is a classic Galentine’s Day celebration. Create a cozy atmosphere with themed decorations and a delicious spread of food. Whether it’s a home-cooked meal or takeout from your group’s favorite restaurant, sharing a meal together allows for heartfelt conversations and laughter.

2. Spa Day

Turn your home into a spa retreat with facemasks, manicures, and relaxation. Use candles and soothing music to create a calming environment. It’s an excellent way to unwind together and indulge in self-care.

3. Movie Marathon

Plan a movie marathon with your favorite feel-good films or nostalgic classics. Grab some popcorn, blankets, and snacks, and settle in for a relaxing time. You can even create a small DIY cinema setup for a fun twist, you twist. Need inspiration? Consider movies like “Legally Blonde”, “Mean Girls”, “Bridesmaids”, or “Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants” to keep the mood light and joyful.

4. DIY Craft Night

Host a craft night to unleash your creativity. Stock up on art and craft materials and set up stations for different projects. Need some ideas?
