Scrunchies aren’t only a popular hair accessory, they’re perfect gifts for Galentine’s celebrations. And there’s no need to wait until the party is almost over for you to give a gift bad with a scrunchie to your besties. They can be part of the celebration and fun.
Here’s a few ways you can incorporate scrunchies into your Galentine’s festivities. Once the party is over, your friends will remember the great time they had, and their bestie each time they wear their new scrunchie.
To Mark Whose Glass is Whose
If you know everyone’s favorite color, or want to buy Valentine’s themed scrunchies in multiple patterns, wrap them around the step of a wine glass like a wine marker. Now everyone can take the glass with their favorite color, or their favorite print and pattern and nobody will mix up whose is whose.
This works great for mocktails as well as margarita and martini glasses since each has a stem and a flared base to keep the scrunchies from sliding off.
Scrunchie Ring Toss
If there’s some new people in the group, or you need to kill a bit of time, set up a round of scrunchie ring toss. All you need is a thin and vertical standing target like a paper towel holder, or a champagne glass, and scrunchies.
When someone lands their scrunchie around the target they get to ask a question to a random guest about something they want to know. It’s a great way to bond and learn new things about each other. And that's the spirit of Galentine's making this game even more special.
As Napkin Rings
Just like the decor on a wine glass to help people know which is theirs, you can double wrap a scrunchie around the silverware on the dinner table as a fun “twist” on a napkin holder or silverware ring. The fabric adds texture and pops of color, and your guests will love being able to take home a new scrunchie.
A Perfect Party Favor and Overnight Guest Essential
Not only do scrunchies make amazing Galentine’s party favors, if one of the guests is from out of town or staying the night, they can use it to hold their hair up. This makes it a fun and functional party favor.
Team Colors
If trivia, Pictionary, or other team themed games are part of your celebration, scrunchies can be the team’s identifier. You can do two colors, or two hairstyles.
It can be side braids vs. ponytails or red vs. pink. If you place the colors into a container so people choose at random, there’s no having to worry about whose on which team.
Pops of Color to Gift Bags
If everyone is getting a favor or gift bag, use a scrunchie in the party’s theme color to close the top. It’s the perfect way to keep the bag closed and add some extra fun.
Galentine’s color palettes provide a stunning contrast against clear packaging if you’re doing candies and chocolates, self care products like bath bombs, and other favors for the occasion.
There’s no shortage of ways to add scrunchies to Galentine’s, and everyone will love getting to take a new one home. Best of all your guests get to relive the fun and think of you each time they wear it.
