Marvelous Galentine's Day Ideas
“Alone, I’m a spittoon. With you, I’m a somebody.” – Susie Myerson, Amazon Prime's The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.I feel like Galentine's Day is a holiday that would be right up Midge Maisel aka The Marvelous Mrs. Maisle, as everything from the holiday's colors, accessories, decor, & food would be Midge perfection.

All that Glitters Sheertex Tights {c/o} |
I am SO glad I started {& am up-to-date} watched The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel & it's rare anymore that you find a show that's genuinely funny, as well as has an outstandingly talented cast. Plus, the show's costumes & sets are amazing. In fact, it reminds me of {all time favorite}, Ugly Betty, in that plucky, aesthetically pleasing, & down-right sweet manner kind-of-way.
With Valentine's Day & Galentine's Day so near, I thought, it would be a sweet idea to share Marvelous Galentine's Day Ideas from gifts, food, decor, & more.
Galentine's Day Gifts
Pixi MatteLast Liquid Lip {c/o} |
-Pixi by Petra Matte Last Liquid Lipstick: I love the bold-long lasting color of this particular liquid lipstick as well as the easy application.
-Aleah Pearl Cuff Earrings, Bauble Bar: Since I don't have pierced ears, the rise of the ear cuffs have me so swooning for this new accessory trend.
-All that Glitters, Sheertex Pantyhose: Have you tired Sheertex pantyhose yet? They're pretty amazing as they are marketed to be 10 x stronger than the average pantyhose. Plus, their designs are unique to any that I have seen. I was really impressed with the quality of these sparkly black glitter sheers they kindly gifted me--Midge Maisel approved.
- Hair Clips: Beaded hairclips are everywhere now, adding a little clip to a Galentine card is the perfect feminine touch!
Galentine's Day Food & Drink
- Popcorn: Freshly popped popcorn with mixed in M & Ms is perfect for a chick-flick movie night.
-Heart-shaped pancakes: Heart eyes for these Paleo pancakes which were made with an Opalhouse by Target pancake mold!
- Pink Wine Either rosé, pink white zinfandel, or prosecco are fun wines for Galentine's Day.
-Meringues: To me, meringues are the new macaroons, pass it on.
Galentine's Day Decor
Paper lipstick tubes inspired by The House That Lars Built |
-DIY Paper Lipstick Valentines: I made these paper towel {I used an empty kitchen foil tube} lipstick Valentines as I got the idea & template from the blog, The House that Lars Built. I put sweet tart hearts inside which transformed them from decor into clever Galentines!.
-Valentines: Repurposing Valentines as decor makes for a cost-effective & chic party accent
-Foil Balloons: I am all for foil balloons, they are simple to inflate as well as elevate a party look in seconds!
Rose Box NYC Jewel Box Roses {c/o} |
- Roses: Roses are for Bachelor contestants, roses that last 365 days are for everyone else. How gorgeous are these light green roses {in a clear case} from Rose Box NYC?
-Cake Stands: Cake stands are perfect for pumping desserts & decor upon your tablescapes. If you're are a savvy shopper, you can get some really cute cake stands in the Target Dollar Spot!
I love the adorable little lipsticks you made! Happy (early) Galentine's Day :))) I hope you have a great week!
