Crafty gifts for Galentine’s Day

Forget Valentine’s Day. Who needs overpriced chocolates and flowers when instead you can get the girls together and celebrate Galentine’s Day? 

Galentine’s Day, the creation of Parks and Recreation’s Leslie Knope, is held on the 13th February and is a time to get together and revel in the notion of ‘ovaries before brovaries’. A time to forget work and other commitments in order to celebrate friendships and shower each other with love and good vibes, all whilst remembering just how powerful the female species is.

We surveyed some of our female community members and discovered that a whopping 68% would rather a night with their girlfriends than going out with their partner or on a date.

Members were also asked which characteristics they loved the most about their girlfriends, with their sense of humour being ranked the best characteristic, followed by supportiveness and then willingness to try new experiences.

According to our survey, the top ten famous females that ladies would love to spend Galentine’s Day with are:

  1. Lizzo
  2. Rihanna 
  3. Jennifer Lawrence 
  4. Phoebe Waller-Bridge
  5. Chrissy Tiegen 
  6. Olivia Coleman 
  7. Adele
  8. Jane Fonda
  9. Jodie Comer
  10. Jennifer Anniston 

Whether you want to remind your girls to keep their heads up, how much you love them, or that they have great butts. There is a Galentine’s Day craft for everyone.
