Remember back in January when we challenged you to make one resolution this year? And of course, that resolution was to throw Fabulous parties…but it was with a twist! We challenged you to resolve to throw Fabulous non-traditional parties and to get you started, we provided you with some Fabulous non-traditional ideas for January. To help you keep your resolution, we will continue to provide you with monthly ideas for your bashes…so what Fabulous non-traditional fun can you get into for February?
February is a popular month for hearts and romance. It is after all:
- American Heart Month
- An Affair to Remember Month
- Creative Romance Month
- National Weddings Month; and,
- The 3rd week is International Flirting Week
But fear not, single hostesses, there is plenty of non-traditional Fabulous fun for you to have this month as well!
Feb. 1 – National Freedom Day: why not celebrate that you are single, ready to mingle, and free from relationship drama?
Feb. 2 – Ground Hog Day: Pull out that polo shirt and checkered pants and have a Caddy Shack Party – who knows, you may land yourself a caddy…score!
Feb. 3 – The Day the Music Died: Buddy Holly, Richie Valens and the Big Bopper died in a plane crash in 1959…sad, yes, but turn this day around and have a sock hop! This screams 50’s party – think Greece!
Feb. 4 – Thank a Mailman Day: why not surprise your mailman with a special thank you and then throw a cocktail party for your friends where you surprise them with notes telling them how special they are to you?
Feb. 5 – National Weatherman’s Day: the only job where you can be wrong consistently and still get paid!

Feb. 17 – Random Acts of Kindness Day: gather a group of friends together and go do something to help others - write cards to soldiers, volunteer at an animal shelter, or go to Starbucks and buy a coffee for the stranger in line behind you! You will have fun and change the world for the better, all at the same time!
Feb. 18 – National Battery Day: throw a birthday party to celebrate the birth of the battery. Absolutely crazy, yes…but imagine the look on the face of the baker when you ask her to write “Happy Birthday Batteries” on the cake…you and your friends will laugh about that over cocktails for sure!
