When Erin of Erin Alexander Photography sent over these gorgeous photos of her daughter's birthday party I knew you guys would love it! The party was a cookie decorating party held at Sweet Impressions Bakery. I love the idea of doing some sort of craft or activity at birthday parties, and this one seems like a dream.

Spirograph Cake Decorating
This exhibit by Misher' Traxler is absolutely brilliant. Visitors were invited to take an active role in the cake decorating by deciding how long the machine would apply the decorative icing (similar to a spirograph).
