Does Valentine’s Day have you feeling some type of way? Are your consciously coupled friends clogging your feed with photos of romantic dinner dates, nice gifts, and heart hands?
It’s easy to think that February is the month of love for couples but fret not, for there’s a day for us, the self-partnered, to do some celebrating of our own.
You and your BFFs have experienced it all. First jobs, bad breakups, crazy girl trips, you name it. While every day is a good day to celebrate your lady friends, there’s no better day to go all out than on Galentine’s Day.

Celebrated on February 13, the day before its famous cousin, Galentine’s Day is a day to cherish your friends and show how much you appreciate them.
With the pandemic continuing to rage on, hosting a besties party or brunch date is ill-advised, so we decided to create a Galentine’s Day gift guide to inspire a gift exchange and shared moments virtually. From cozy robes and blankets to plant centerpieces and self-care must-haves, you’re bound to find the perfect gift to spoil your BFF. And, who knows, you might find something for yourself, too.
Here are some thoughtful Galentine’s Day gifts that are the perfect way to show your unbiological sister how grateful you are for the journey and what’s to come.
21 thoughtful Galentine’s Day gifts to get your BFF

Know a caffeine addict or tea afficionada? We like this mug because there are different skin tones, hair types, and hand accessories to personalize this for you and your bestie. We say go with the money in hand. #claimitsis
2. The Birch Box succulent centerpiece
Flowers are cool, but instead of going with the clichéd rose, get your Galentine this succulent in a dramatic ceramic centerpiece that’s bound to turn heads.
3. Chunky knit blanket
Becozi sells super comfy knit blankets and throws on Etsy. This one’s made of soft chenille yarn and perfect for snuggling.

9. Hand-poured candles
There’s no such thing as having too many candles in our book. Pick two soy candles from Candlefolk so that both of you have one.
10. Self-care journal
All of us have either been through that journey to self-discovery (and still go through it) or have a girlfriend who is. Gifting her the Let That Sh*t Go journal can help affirm to your BFF that she has always been more than enough and it’s okay to let go.
