Thank you, Galentine!

A peppering of pinks, reds, and whites had taken over a St. Louis basement and living room for assembly night— a preemptive mini celebration to our St. Louis Mom gathering for the second annual Galentine’s Crate pick-up.

It took two moms, and two of their littles, a well-spent evening to pack a plethora of items into their new wooden homes with care. Every box or bag opened from each business sparked a renewed feeling of joy in our hearts. A community in and around STL shared pieces of their hard work with us and with you.

 

The best part? Most of the crate contributors are MOMS! You go, Galentine! We see you out there, and we support you!

Thank you, Galentine! To all of you who were lucky enough to snag a crate to keep or gift, we hope you had a wonderful time stopping in to pick it up.

 

Our Galentine Crate sponsors were so amazing, and we are very grateful that they contributed Golden Ticket Items to two lucky winners! Thank you, Healing Hamsa. Your wellness spa space looks like a dream, and we are thrilled that someone gets to come to you for a facial! Thank you to Drybar St. Louis for contributing a blowout to give one of our lucky mamas a little extra boost!

If you loved the coffee shop where we met, you can thank Disco! for sharing their contact with us. Espresso Yourself Coffee & Café is unique and fun and just the spirit we were looking for! Thank you, Disco!, and thank you, Espresso Yourself! We can’t wait to go back to sip again soon.

Nothing feeds the soul the way a little treat does. We had quite a few yummy goodies in the crates and we are still dreaming about them! A huge thank you to Six Hearts Bake Shoppe, The Caroline Design, Hendel’s Market Café, Sweeter Cards, SweetJoy Baking Company, Teatopia, and Allred Bees. A fed Galentine is a happy Galentine. 😉

 

We couldn’t let our Galentines miss a little spa indulgence in the comfort of their own home. The soap, bath bomb, lip gloss, shower steamer, and candle were a nice self-care starter for the Galentine who deserves some pampering. Thank you, Buff City Soap Kirkwood, KIND Soap, and Blazed Candle Co.!

 

Galentine Curated Crate items

 

Of course, we had to make sure that our Galentines had a few beautiful items to wear while gifting a custom-designed card! Thank you, Do Me A Favor for the fresh t-shirt, Brixx & Stones and CoCo Vi Jewelry for lovely stackable bracelets, Sisterhood Style for the wallet keychain, and Midwest Coast Designs for their earrings. Thank you, Emily Stahl Design Co. for the custom greeting card!

And to our other Golden Ticket businesses: PAINT St. Louis, Styled by Meg, and Verde Designs— we are grateful for your generosity. Sharing a piece of your business with the lucky winners was such a fun experience! 

 

All of these local businesses came together to create a lovely crate for you, Galentine. Here’s to hoping you feel the love for the whole month of February!
