What do sweet treats, crafting, and girl time have in common? They all make for the perfect Galentine’s Day get together! Oriental Trading Company and I have teamed up to for the ultimate Galentine’s Day Make and Take DIY Craft Party filled with fun DIYs to get creative with your besties!
Hosting a Galentine’s party is a wonderful way to celebrate the special bond of female friendships and promote a positive, uplifting atmosphere. This gathering, popularized by the TV show “Parks and Recreation,” is typically held on or around February 13th and focuses on cherishing the camaraderie between women.
This year’s Galentine’s Day Party will be
a little different than years past. I usually have my girls come over and create their own love notes and Valentine’s Day cards, but this year.I decided it would be fun to let them loose over Valentine’s Day card boxes. Curating fun ways to receive all the love notes from our friends with a perfectly decorated box!
A Galentine’s Day Party is an opportunity to express gratitude and appreciation for the amazing women in your life. Celebrating friendship can be a powerful and soul-nourishing experience. By hosting a Galentine’s party, you create a space where everyone can feel valued and loved.


Invite all your best gals over for an afternoon of making Valentine’s Day card boxes, sweet treats, and much needed girl time. Oriental Trading Company has EVERYTHING and more to curate this party idea. My favorite pieces of this Galentine’s day party is definitely the Conversation Heart Arch and Tabletop setup.
This Galentine’s Day Make and Take DIY Craft Party is
easily one your guests will be talking about for a while. If you’ve been reading my party posts you’ll know about my “Party Zones 101” which make up the perfect layout for a successful party. This was no exception. I prepared the party table, snacks/treat area, and the activity zone.
These 3 zones keeps the best flow for an intimate party and allows guests to feel inviting and comfortable.
Celebrating Galentine’s Day is important to me because it allows individuals to embrace self-love and self-care as well. It is a reminder that healthy relationships with friends and oneself are crucial for overall well-being. By dedicating time to celebrate the bond between women, you’re investing in your emotional health and creating a positive ripple effect.





Add balloons and disco balls as accent pieces to make it pop even more. Those truly make a statement! Setup one area for your guests to get creative with card boxes, and another area to share a treat and some laughs together. You will be blown away by the amount of easy-to-do DIY kits Oriental Trading has on their site right now at amazing prices!

Adding in more Christian focused DIYs is high on my to do list in 2024, starting with this adorable prayer box for Valentine’s Day. These boxes are fun to make with the family as you are intended to fill the inside with personal prayers for others. It would be a great gift to teach little ones about the importance and power of prayer. My girls made these, wrote prayers for their friends to put inside and gave them as gifts.
I hope to teach my daughters that spreading the love of Jesus comes in all forms, even as small and simple as a little boxed gift. It’s the simple acts of kindness and love that go a long way for most people!


I hope I have given all the best reasons for putting on your own Galentines Day event. Hosting a Galentine’s party is good for the soul because it celebrates friendship, creates joyful memories, provides relaxation, and encourages self-love. It’s a heartwarming occasion that brings women together to cherish the beautiful connections that enrich their lives.
