5 Ideas for the Perfect Galentine's Day

February has arrived: the month dedicated to showing those around you how much you love & care about them!  Whether you plan on celebrating with heart candies, making fun DIY Valentine’s gifts, or seeing the latest romcom in theaters with your loved one, it’s important to remember the people who know and love you best – your girlfriends!  What better way to spend the holiday than by hosting a fun, girlfriends only, Galentine’s Day!
 

Here are few fun and festive ideas for hosting your perfect event.  You can use them all or pick and choose what you’d like – this party is all about the ladies and what YOU want!

Nail Polish Bar
Take turns giving each other the spa treatment with at-home manicures complete with your own nail polish bar!  This is a fun way to use all those polish’s you’ve collected over the years and put them to good use.  Invite your girlfriends to bring some of their favorite shades to also use and share.  Be sure to stock up on the essentials such as files, clippers, buffers, and cuticle clippers.  Best part is your hands will look great at a fraction of the cost! 

Host Brunch
Create a love-themed menu with heart-shaped waffles, colorful make-your-own mimosa bar, and yummy frittatas.  If you aren’t up for making food for everyone, make the brunch pot-luck style and ask your girlfriends to bring one of their favorite dishes!   

At-Home Spa Treatments

No girls day is complete without a little spa treatment!  There are lots of DIY at home spa treatments ideas out there from mud masks, foot soaks & scrubs, to facials!  Try some ideas found here and treat yourself and your girlfriends to some well-deserved relaxation time. 

Host a Serious Throwback Slumber Party
Miss staying up laughing all night with your friends like you used to do in high school?  Why not host a throwback slumber party and play all the games you used to enjoy (truth or dare, anyone?).  No phones allowed – make it more fun by gathering all your phones as soon as you get together and vowing to not be on them! 

Binge Watch Romcom’s
No Galentine’s Day is complete without some classic romance movies.  Whatever event you decide to host, have the classics playing in the background or watch them during your throwback slumber party!  Be sure to include: The Notebook, A Walk to Remember, My Best Friend’s Wedding, Bridesmaids & Clueless, to name a few. 

Thankfully when you live in a Camden apartment home, you have the perfect hosting space!  I hope you feel inspired to host your own Galentine's Day and celebrate the best kind of love - friendships!
