Galentines Ideas
Ladies! It's not too late to show those you love most just how much you care this Valentine's Day. One of our favorite ways to thank all the special women in our life who keep our world spinning is with brunch. I mean who doesn't love a good excuse to eat way too many carbs and drink Champagne before noon? Here are a few quick tips to throw together a last minute Valentines Day brunch for all the special ladies in your life this Valentine's Day.
Set a Beautiful Table
Its not everyday you get to brunch with the girls, so make it a special occasion! Bring out the fine china, layer in the dessert plates and have fun with your table setting. Create a simple center piece with what you have on hand. No need to break the bank on flowers just get creative with other winter blooms.
Have Fun with Florals
Just because its Valentines Day doesn't mean you have to have roses. Florist & grocers mark their roses up for the holiday. So have fun with other flowers! Try using a faux garland to incorporate some blooms into your decor.
Use Food as Decoration
This DIY Donut Tower was such a hit last brunch. Not only is it beautiful but its so easy to make. Grab a fresh batch of donut holes to morning of so they are not dried out. Then all you need is a styrofoam cone and a box of tooth picks. Add the donut holes in a circular motion form the base of the cone, working your way up. Fill in the gaps with fresh florals or any other Valentine's Day decorations you may have on hand.
Craft a Custom Cocktail
There are so many Valentines Day cocktails on Pinterest. Just add some floating fruit or flowers, a pink glass and you have yourself a party.
