Galentine’s Day this year happens to fall on the same day as the big game, but who says we have to pick one or the other? Your girls will always be your girls and we can’t let the day go by without celebrating one another.

To save you time from scrolling endless hours online for the most unique gifts, we’ve rounded up our favorites to send to your girlfriends, but first, did you know Galentine’s Day was invented 12 years ago? And it emerged from a Parks and Recreation episode?

Leslie Knope’s character in Parks and Recreation, Amy Poehler, is who we have to thank for Galentine’s Day, according to Good Housekeeping. She quotes in the show, “Every February 13, my lady friends and I leave our husbands and our boyfriends at home, and we just come and kick it, breakfast-style.”

Now, let’s hear it for your ladies and grab them one – or all – of these gifts.

Goldbelly

Galentine’s Day celebrations may look a little different for everyone, but one thing we can all agree on is that a food-themed gift will melt just about anybody’s heart – and taste buds! So whether you’re looking to spoil your significant other, binge with your best friend, or ride solo, Goldbelly is here to make it extra special with I Love You Donuts, Heart-Shaped Ravioli and Heart-Shaped Rainbow Cookies!

sugarfina XOXO Box

Ringing it at just under $30, the 3-piece sugarfina XOXO is a limited-edition box where you can pick any three gourmet candies from over 30 selections. The sugar filled brand offers Valentine’s Day inspired candies like “Sugar Lips,” “Pink Diamonds,” “Long-Stem Roses,” and more!

uncommon goods

If you are looking for truly unique gifts, seriously, unlike any other, then uncommon goods is your place. The Brooklyn-based brand handpicks creative designs developed by local artists and for every purchase, they donate $1 to one of their four nonprofit partners. They have all sorts of gifts to pick from including for the one that loves rainbow bagels, the one who keeps up with trends like breakable chocolate hearts, and even for that one you can always count on to say the right thing on a custom shortbread cookie message.

Vinebox By Sugarwish

The wine brand, which offers seasonally themed wine boxes featuring European wines that come in vials, has curated a Be Mine Box at $44, which we may have to keep for ourselves. The individual 3-pack of wines is a great gift option for your girls or a treat for yourself!

Let’s be honest, how many gifts are you getting for you? We’re not judging, but on a more serious note, with shipping delays, be sure to order early (like now) so your presents arrive on time! Cheers to the gals!
