Saturday Showcase Top Picks:

Most Clicked Crafty Link- Get Crafty was linked up by author Mia King. She made a post on her Facebook wall about writing and how she believes in the mind-body connection. She gets crafty! “I started playing with modern and vintage Hawaiian fabrics. I started sewing and playing with scraps, and came up with what I call The Aloha Pillow. A muslin pocket stamped with ”œALOHA” is filled with lavender from Waimea, the small upcountry town in Hawaii where I live, so whenever you feel the need for a little aloha, you just give it a squeeze.”
