Gathering with friends for a paintandsip evening is an amazing, innovative approach to spend time together while tapping into everyone’s creativity as artists.
 
All that is needed is a selection of wine or mocktails to complement the days festivities.

The most memorable part of the night will be looking at everyone elses artwork and sharing a good laugh over how different each finished product turned out.
 
Paintandsip evenings are easygoing, fun, and an excellent way to make your Galentine’s celebration unique.

When done right, this cooking contest brings about nothing but pure chaos (but its a good form of it).

Pair everyone up; one person will be blindfolded and the other will be unable to speak; then work together to prepare a basic recipe.

The hand signals, bewilderment, and giggles throughout will make this experience unforgettable!

The food will either be remarkably delicious or comically awful, either way, its entertaining as hell.

This is something your friends will ruminate about for months.

 

8. Hoodie or Shirt Designing

 Designing your own hoodie is a more advanced form of custom tshirt making.

It provides a 3D and more personalized touch than tshirt design. You may use fabric paint, embroidered patches, puff paint, or even tie dye (for example) to create stylish hoodies.

This event will give individuals the opportunity to express their creativity while also properly designing the project by completing color placements, etc.

Also, my favorite thing about the outcome of this event is that you have created something useful (a hoodie) that you will wear again.

After spending a fun night with your girlfriends, you will have a cute, cozy keepsake.

 

9. Woven Bag Decorating Activity

Decorating woven bags has a cutesy, beachy feel, as you will love having friends bring their own bits and pieces to create that unique bag that everyone will enjoy!

Everyone becomes engrossed in creating their own oneofakind bag using charms, tassels, paints, fabric flowers, and patches.

You will be very relaxed while using your creative talents, and once you see the unique results, you will agree it is very satisfying.

A finished product will help to provide a great accessory for spring and summer.

 

10. Spa Day with the Girls

If exciting activities are not on your list of things to do on Galentines, consider planning a spa day!

Booking a spa day with your girlfriends can help to create selfcare, relaxation, and pampering through shared experiences.

If your girlfriends book a spa, be sure to send them a text of the details and remind them to bring their robes, candles, and soothing music to make it special.

 

11. Group Book Club & Treats Night

If you are looking for a slow, comfortable Galentine’s event, think about doing a book club!

Friends will love reading together, discussing their favorites, and swapping books; and providing warm drinks, cozy blankets, and mood lighting will create the perfect environment for a cozy night in.

There is no better way to spend time together than meeting a shared reading goal together.

 

12. Baking After Dark

Nothing says fun like baking a lot of delicious treats together! Choose at least three recipes that you want everyone to make, such as brownies, cookies, or mini cupcakes.
 
The kitchen will be filled with laughter, flour fights, and the wonderful aroma of baked goodies.
 
A great balance between being productive and indulgent; everyone can taste their creations and take home a little treat!
 

13. Charcuterie Board-Making Challenge

The charcuterie board-making competition creates a wonderful combination of friendship and competitiveness!
 
Everyone will receive la carte for creating their own version of the same board with various delicious items such as cheese, crackers, meats, fruits, chocolate, etc., and lots of different finishing touches!

Theres something about cozy movie marathons that can make even the most mundane Friday night feel like a fun, nostalgic experience.
 
Set up your couch with some pillows and blankets, grab a bunch of snacks you loved growing up, and plan a lineup of your favorite childhood films or iconic romantic comedies.
 
The best part about these movie nights is always the inside jokes, commentary, and crazy conversations while watching the movies!
 
Its so comforting and familiar, in the best way possible.

Storytelling can be a fun and wonderful way to bond with friends.
 
Each person shares a funny, embarrassing, or otherwise meaningful story from his or her life.
 
Stories often bring many laughs and sometimes tears, as well as the experience of sharing a common memory.
 
Everyone will walk away feeling more connected to each other after a night of sharing stories.
 

16. The Friendship Bracelet Crafting

 Crafting Friendship bracelets is one of my favorite things from when I was a kid, but this time around, it has a more grown-up feel to it.
 
I provided the beads, the letter charms, the colourful cord, and metal embellishments so that my guests could make something that represented who they were.
 
This has been such a therapeutic and relaxing activity for everyone chatting, eating snacks, and displaying their creations!
