Anything can be used as a weapon of war, from a sword, right down to a toothbrush. It doesn't matter what you use, but how you use it. Galadriel merely utilized one of the properties of Nenya, which was extremely useful at that point of time. She also learned a lot from Melian, during her stay in Doriath in the First Age, so that is another reason why her Girdle seemed so strontg. She learned from the "original Girdle-Maker," which enhanced her power. Also, Galadriel was one of the oldest Elves left in Middle-earth, and one of the most powerful, since she had been born in Aman, and had seen the Light of the Two Trees. That gave her added power.
