Since my Winter Wonderland event, TWO of my laptops have failed me. One has a virus and the other is just broken! That said, I have to thank my readers for your patience despite my absence.
Just because I've been away doesn't mean I haven't had you all in mind. I found some really cool sites to check out until my return later this month.
For those of you that don't want to dedicate a huge portion of your event's budget to flowers, try to make them yourself with these whimsical ideas (and instructions). Did I mention they were paper? Try using patterned paper for a funky bouquet:
For those of you hosting celebrations for the Super Bowl, click here for some tasty cupcake recipes.
My godson will be celebrating his 1st birthday and I will be hosting a super cute intimate Cookie monster party for him. Also, I will be planning a birthday party later this Spring and hope to have preparation pictures up soon.
Again, thanks for baring with Wrightfully Social! See you soon!
Because there's never a wrong reason to celebrate!

Winter Wonderland Wrap-Up
Almost two weeks ago, I hosted Winter Wonderland at the RH School of Performing Arts. With the help of a dedicated troop of volunteers, blaring Christmas music, and a super dedicated boyfriend that dressed up like Mr. Kringle, we pulled off a fab event!
The kiddies piled into the activity room where they got temporary tattoos, coloring pins, and played games! The best part of the whole event was seeing the kids play with each other.
Santa even got kinda competitive with the bean bag toss! I put up more pictures on the facebook page, be sure to check it out! Don't forget to become a Wrightfully Social fan as well!
This event was made possible by Nicole Jones of Sensual Steps Shoe Salon, Thomas Cole of Diamond Bank, Frances Wright of Allstate Insurance, Pink's Child Care Academy, and Rhea Henderson of the RH School of Performing Arts.www.sensualstepsinc.com

Color Me Bold: Lisa Frank Inspired Party
I was in the store the other day and saw a set of Lisa Frank folders. Aside from swooning right there in aisle four, I became inspired to post this bright, bold post inspired by the artist!This is a fun theme for children's parties, especially ones that include arts and craft activities.
Use bright shades of purple, pink, blue, and yellow to unify splashes of color for your party.Guests will surely love this rainbow Sprite cake. I found the recipe over at Onomicon for all those brave chefs out there. Find it here. Rainbow lollipops and rainbow sherbet also provide treats for the mouth and eyes!
Give attendees gift bags filled with Lisa Frank activity books, pencils, rainbow stretch bracelets, and porcupine balls.
Make funky centerpieces with these button bouquets. These can be found on Etsy. You can check out my earlier post on button themed party ideas here.
Music playlist inspired by this post:Prince "Pink Cadillac"
Prince "Purple Rain"
Aerosmith "Pink "
Beyonce "Greenlight"
Kelly Clarkson "Behind these Hazel Eyes"
Beatles "Blackbird" <-- one of my faves! Donovan "Mellow Yellow" Michael Jackson "Black or White"
I am personally grateful to this artist. I used these folders to learn about aesthetics, especially how to draw. Earlier on in elementary school, we would showcase our Lisa Frank school supplies proudly. Any girly girl growing up in the 90s should understand! By the way, this marks her 30th anniversary, congratulations!
