31 Galentine’s Day gift ideas your pals will love

Galentine’s Day isn’t an official holiday (yet), but it’s a chance to show friends some love. For the uninitiated, 13 February is earmarked as a day to get together with your besties and celebrate your friendship; it’s not the antithesis of Valentine’s Day but a reminder that romantic love isn’t the only kind of love.

We’ve rounded up 31 fun and thoughtful ideas for a get-together or a pick-me-up. Options range from a home pottery kit, a boxercise set or cosy slippers to a bundle for pickle lovers.

Highlights include a Papier wellness journal filled with prompts to track goals, a Lékué heart-shaped ice cube tray, a beginner-friendly home pottery kit with clay and tools, and a mystery female football player shirt. Little luxuries such as a calligraphy-engraved compact mirror, a Peanuts x Grind cafetière with enamel mugs, or a blue mother-of-pearl photo frame also feature.

Whether you’re buying for a friend or treating yourself, these suggestions aim to empower, treat and celebrate them.
