In anticipation of what this season of Jane the Virgin might bring—Will [REDACTED] marriage be annulled? Will [REDACTED] and [REDACTED] ever get back together?—we’ve decided to keep our blood pressure down and focus on something like Jane’s diaper bag. As in what will the new mama be carrying in it? 

Halloween decorations don't have to mean store-bought candles and cobwebs! Quirk gets crafty and shows you how to make wondefully spooky mason jars that will  help any home feel the Halloween spirit.

To say Quirk President Brett Cohen is a pretty big fan of Back to the Future is like saying the Aurora Borealis is pretty neat-looking. Mere words is not enough, you simply must see it for yourself.

Don’t have a jug of laundry starch sitting around (who does)? Whip up your own patch of starch for this project with stuff you already have in the kitchen.)

Ever been tempted to mark a book as read on Goodreads just because you've just binge-watched the TV show on Netflix? This may be one of those times.
