Galentine's Day has evolved from being a stellar Parks and Recreation episode and blossomed into a bonafide occasion of ladies celebrating ladies… but if your lady friends don't live near you, you may need some creative ideas. What's the move? Send a care package of thoughtful, empowering, and cute AF treats! Below are just some of the components you should look into when creating a clever Galentine's gift box for your best friend.

1 of 7

Galentine's Day Card

You don't have to write a 5,000-word essay of why your bestie is so awesome (who has the time?). But you can maybe knock out 50 words on why you're grateful they're in your life.

Where to buy it: $9.99, Amazon

Galentine's Day Magnets

Point blank: magnets are small and affordable and they say everything that you couldn't fit in the aforementioned card. And hey, now she can put your thoughtful words right up there on the fridge.

Girl Power Magnet — $7.49, Amazon

Sassy Vintage Magnet — $6.49, Amazon

Eleanor Roosevelt Magnet — , $4.95, Amazon

Galentine's Day Books

Throwing a paperback book (or anchoring your care package with an epic hardcover, if you wanna go all out) is a solid move. But where do you start?

Is your friend is looking to inspire positive change? Does she look up to a particular female showrunner? Shonda Rhimes' Year of Yes works for those looking to live their best life, or take a break away from bingeing Scandal.

The Betches book Nice Is Just a Place in France is another good option for your friend who needs a firmer tone in order to get her s–t together and dump her on-again, off-again ex.

Cork Dork we love because, let's face it, V-Day involves a lot of wine-ing. It's perfect for your friend who wants to educate herself on the different notes in a glass, even though we both know she's gonna stick to her Barefoot Pinot Grigio at the end of the day (as she should).

And if you have a fancy friend who's all about that #aesthetic life, the Kate Spade coffee table book She: Muses, Visionaries and Madcap Heroines will connect her with a series of stylish, smart, and dynamic women.

Tl;dr you know your BFF better than we do, but rest assured, a book is a classy move.

Year of Yes — $4.71, Amazon

Nice Is Just a Place in France — $9.29, Amazon

Cork Dork — $11.65, Amazon

SHE — $11.65, Amazon

Galentine's Day Mug

We love the idea of reminding your main lady that she's an absolute queen, especially with an overenthusiastic shark. And since you can't catch up at a cafe IRL, you can set her up with coffee to kickstart her day, or tea to wind down at night.

Yas Queen Shark Mug — $14.99, Amazon.

Celestial Seasonings Fruit Tea Sampler, Fruit — $6.61, Amazon.

Dunkin Donuts Chocolate Glazed Donut Coffee — $5.69, Amazon.

Galentine's Day Coloring Book

The next time she's stressed about work she can get zen and flashback to a simpler time, one where she wasn't living paycheck-to-paycheck. Adult coloring books are all over the place these days, but for Galentine's Day it seems appropriate to color in a bunch of awesome lady bosses. And don't forget the proper tools to make those rainbow dreams come true!

No, but seriously, don't be cheap, crayons cost less than a frappucino.

Where to buy it: $7.18, Amazon

Galentine's Day Best Friends T-Shirt

Because they're the burger to your fries and you can't get late night diner food together like you used to.

Super cute idea: If you two are long distance buds, include an Instax of yourself wearing the other shirt!

Donut and Coffee Sweatshirt — $19.99, Amazon

Milk and Cookies T-Shirt — $30.99, Amazon

Burger and Fries T-Shirt — $19.99, Amazon

Galentine's Day Best Frenemy T-Shirt

The BFF Betty and Veronica tank tops might be a better pick if you're both obsessed with Riverdale. Or maaaaybe you're just using this holiday care package to smooth over the fact that you slept with her college ex-boyfriend last winter.

…guys ruin everything.

Veronica Lodge Tank Top — $14.01 – $29.54, Amazon

Betty Cooper Tank Top — $14.90 – $29.50, Amazon
