**UPDATE** I’ve been sharing weekly holiday, party, and themed idea boards, just like this inspiration board, on my new site Unique Pastiche Events. CLICK HERE to see more holiday idea and inspiration boards!
Grab your girlfriends, and tell them they’ve got plans for next Thursday, because no one is going to be alone this Valentine’s Day! Seriously. Go text them right now. We are sharing the love this week! I’ve seen so many “Feb.14th is also Singles Awareness Day”, or “Don’t support this hallmark holiday” posts, and you know what, I’m kind of tired of people being “woe is me, I’m all alone on Valentine’s Day”. You’re not. You mean something to someone. Someone loves and values you. It may not be your soul mate right now, but you have friends and family who adore you!
This party idea board is for you and your girlfriends to enjoy! Sweet treats, laughs, and pampering is what this event is about.

You can actually do a lot of this with less than a week’s
notice, so get going!
notice, so get going!
First off, start by calling a local massage therapist. LOTS
of them travel, or can refer you to one who does “in home” services. Call, and
schedule to have one or two come out on Valentine’s Day. Have them set up their
tables in a spare room. You and your
girlfriends can be treated to short back massages, relaxing neck rubs, and even
foot rubs.

and soft linens for the massage table.

Stop by the store, and pick up your favorite, classic chick
flicks to have on hand. Get at least 2-3 so there are options for
everyone. And maybe pick up a few
bottles of wine to have on hand. Google
“chick flicks” to see tons of lists of possibilities if you aren’t sure where
to start.

Treats! So many options to choose from! If you are able to
prepare some treats beforehand (or ask each girlfriend to bring their favorite
treat) consider some of these:

As with all Sparkle Queen Events, I want to inspire you to make
your event extra special. While many of the items I include in my event designs
are tutorials, recipes, or handmade… use your imagination! Sometimes you can’t
make everything yourself, or you can make things that you could buy, but the
key is to find the right balance for you and your event, and strive to make it
exceptional!

I so agree with you, I think there are too many people whining on valentine's day just because they're single. So what if you're single? Back then when I was single I still baked cookies and made chocolates for my family and friends, and most importantly: myself! Being single on Valentine's day doesn't mean we can't celebrate. We can always give ourselves some love 😀 ?
Exactly! I'm so glad I'm not the only one who agrees! I could go for some cookies! Maybe that will be on my to-do list for this weekend lol.
Oh wow, I was so sad I wouldn't be able to indulge in those fun drinks this year because of this baby in my belly but I am so happy to see that cotton candy drink is made with Perrier!! I will for sure be having the hubby make that for me on Thursday! Thanks for the ideas!!! 🙂
Aww, well that's a good reason to save 'em till next year! Congrats on the baby! 🙂
