Are you familiar with Galentine’s Day? It’s the holiday that falls on February 13. Whileit’s oftenovershadowed by Valentine’s Day, Galentine’s Dayhas a special place in the hearts ofmany women. In thewords of the imitable Leslie Knope, it’s about “ladies celebrating ladies.” First featured in an episode of the show Parks and Rec, it depicted Knope and her best gals as they “kicked it, breakfast-style.”
The fictitious holiday has caught on in real life. Long after the show ended, women continue to rejoice in their female friendships on the eve of February 14. If you’re someone who wants to proclaim your platonic love, we’ve found unique gifts that you can give to any of the favorite gal pals in your life.
We’ve found empowering products that are also fun. Tattly makes inspirational temporary tattoos to tell your friends how awesome they are, and art lovers can honor the legacy of the pioneering female artist Frida Kahlo with a 1,000 piece Jigsaw Puzzle.
Even if empowerment isn’t on your mind, you can still use it as the opportunity to get your besties some great gifts. They can be practical, too. Have a friend who loves to doodle? We’ve included flower color pencils. And for those eager to learn a new craft, the kits of Kiriki Press are a charming introduction to embroidery.
Celebrate your favorite ladies with these creative Galentine’s Day gift ideas.
