5 Cozy Things to Do With Your Bestie This Weekend

Alright, listen up, dreamers and comfort-seekers! You know that feeling when the week finally exhales, and Friday night rolls in? Yeah, we all love that. But what's even better? Knowing you've got a whole weekend stretching ahead, just begging to be filled with laughter, relaxation, and maybe a little bit of sparkly nonsense with your absolute favorite human: your bestie!
Forget the outside world for a minute. This weekend, we’re hitting the snooze button on stress and diving headfirst into a pool of pure, unadulterated coziness. Because let's be real, while fancy dinners and going out are fun, there’s nothing quite like truly unwinding with your ride-or-die, especially when in your sanctuary.
Here at ever lasting, we’re all about transforming your bedroom into a haven of luxury and comfort. And what better way to test-drive that plush duvet or those buttery-soft sheets than with a weekend dedicated to the art of chilling out with your best friend? So, dim the lights, grab your comfiest PJs, and let's get into five ridiculously cozy things you and your bestie can do this weekend.

1. The Ultimate Blanket Fort Building & Movie Marathon Extravaganza




Remember being a kid and building those blanket forts? Well, adulting means you get to do it with better blankets, more snacks, and no bedtime.
This isn't just throwing a sheet over a chair; this is an architectural masterpiece. Drag out all your comfiest pillows, every single one of your ever lasting bedding duvets, and those throws you usually reserve for Instagram photos. Once your fort is complete, it's time for the movie marathon. But not just any movie marathon. This calls for a theme!
Are you diving into a rom-com retrospective, revisiting every single early 2000s gem? Perhaps a "bad movie" marathon where you take turns roasting cinematic masterpieces? The possibilities are endless.

2. DIY Spa Day & Gossip Sesh: Because Self-Care is Better Shared




Who needs a fancy, overpriced spa when you have your bestie and a bathroom stocked with delicious-smelling potions? This weekend, turn your humble abode into a five-star relaxation retreat.
Start with face masks – the messier, the better. Bonus points if you take ridiculous but cute selfies. Follow up with a foot soak in warm, epsom-salt-infused water. Take turns giving each other ridiculously luxurious hand and foot massages using your favorite lotions. Paint each other's nails in colors that probably shouldn't go together but look amazing anyway because you're besties and rules don't apply.
While you're pampering yourselves into oblivion, unleash the gossip! This is your safe space to debrief on the week, share your wildest dreams, or just laugh until your abs hurt about that one embarrassing thing you did last Tuesday. There’s something truly therapeutic about sharing your unfiltered thoughts with someone who just gets you, especially when you’re both covered in green clay.

3. The Great Bake-Off: Sweet Treats & Even Sweeter Company




Nothing screams "cozy weekend" quite like the smell of something delicious baking in the oven. But instead of just baking solo, turn it into a friendly competition with your bestie!
Pick a theme: cookies, cupcakes, brownies, or maybe even an ambitious pie. Then, armed with your aprons, or just your favorite PJs, get to baking. You can each tackle a different recipe, or work together on one complicated masterpiece. The fun isn't just in the baking, it's in the inevitable flour explosions, the questionable taste tests, and the sheer joy of creating something sweet together.
Pro Tip from the Dessert Divas: Presentation is key! Arrange your baked goods on pretty platters. Have whipped cream, sprinkles, and chocolate syrup on hand for extra flair.

4. Creating Bestie Memories (and Maybe Some Pinterest Fails)




Sometimes, the best conversations happen when your hands are busy. A cozy crafting session with your bestie is the perfect way to unwind, tap into your creative side, and just be together.
Pull out those needles and yarn. Have you always wanted to try friendship bracelet making, even though you’re both adults now? Do it! Or maybe paint miniature canvases, try out some calligraphy, or even assemble a puzzle.
Pro-Tip: Set up your crafting station in a well-lit, comfortable area – perhaps a sunny spot in your living room, or even right on your bed if you’re using a lap desk. Make sure you have plenty of snacks and drinks within reach. And for the ultimate chill vibes, put on a podcast or an audiobook that you and your bestie both enjoy.

5. The "No Plans, Just Vibes" Bestie Lounge-a-Thon




Okay, sometimes the absolute coziest thing you can do is... nothing. And do it spectacularly well, with your bestie by your side. This isn't laziness; it's a strategic embrace of pure, unadulterated bestie relaxation.
The Lounge-a-Thon is all about allowing you and your bestie the freedom to follow your whims. Maybe you wake up late, stumble out of our Silky Ruffle Bedding Set and decide to read separate books in comfortable silence, only occasionally looking up to share a knowing glance or a funny thought.
Pro-Tip: The key to a successful lounge-a-thon is maximizing comfort. Make sure your bedroom is a sanctuary for your and your bestie. Freshly laundered sheets (the kind that smell like sunshine and dreams), perfectly plumped pillows, and a tidy space all contribute to a feeling of calm. Have a charging station nearby for phones (but try to limit screen time if possible!), a water bottle, and any comfort items your bestie might need.
Lounge the night away next to your bestie with these options:
