Valentine’s Day doesn’t have to be all pressure and unmet expectations.

Sometimes, the most magical moments are the ones you create yourself - with your hands, your friends, and a little time to slow down.


That’s why I’m hosting my very first in-person Soft Spells Galentine’s: A Cozy Craft & Flower Afternoon on February 15.


An afternoon all about designed to bring together creative, kind women to connect, craft, and enjoy some simple joys.


We’ll gather at Soft Studio Days, a local artist’s venue I chose for its beautiful, cozy, and welcoming vibes, where you can relax over crafts, comfort food, and snacks, all while Sex and the City plays softly in the background and good energy fills the room.





Why this event, and why now?


After months of connecting online and creating small handmade joys, I realized how much I wanted to bring creative, kind women together in person.


This is a space to:

  • Slow down

  • Craft with your hands

  • Connect over comfort food and snacks

  • Laugh, chat, and share good energy

  • Take home handmade keepsakes and a professional bouquet


It’s a gift to yourself and your friends, a cozy, intentional afternoon to celebrate connection and creativity.


What we’ll do together

Soft Spells Galentine’s Craft & Flower Afternoon: cozy artist studio setup with craft supplies, flowers, totes, and snacks, ready for a small group of creative friends to paint, decorate, and learn floral arranging.

Agenda of the afternoon:


  • Paint your tote bag: Start the afternoon making a personalized tote — a keepsake to take home.

  • Lunch, snacks, and chat break: Enjoy comfort food and beverages while connecting with the group.

  • Decorate custom claw clips: Add a touch of personal flair to your style with hand-decorated hair accessories.

  • Floral workshop with my mom 💐: Learn to arrange a professional bouquet and take it home tucked in your tote. No experience required, just joy and curiosity.


Time & Cozy Details


  • When: February 15, 11:00 AM – 3:00 PM

  • Where: Soft Studio Days (details shared after ticket purchase)

A Gift to Creative Women: Value & Pricing


Hosting a hands-on, curated event comes with real costs.


From craft materials and totes to flowers, food, beverages, decorations, and the studio space itself.


I’m sharing this information to be transparent, because honesty and openness are core values of Soft Spells.
