The bad news is that it’s Monday again. The good news? We’ve scoured the internet for the week’s finest links so you don’t have to. Whether you are looking for some sweet new coloring pages or a mixtape that perfectly captures the late October vibe, we’re sure to have something to help make your day a little brighter.

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.

White walls: the bane of renters/dorm-dwellers everywhere. Never fear! Even if you can’t paint the walls, you can add color and pattern that stays up all year and comes down easily when you want it to. The secret? Hand-picked fabric and liquid starch.

While starching laundry isn’t too frequent nowadays, this wonder-liquid makes an excellent paste for your wall and turns scrap fabric into beautiful décor.  It’s also water soluble, so the fabric and paste comes off easily when the time is right. 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.)

October is the month of pumpkin flavored everything, chocolate bars in the perfect bite size, reading horror books, watching scary movies, and most importantly, thinking hard about our Halloween costumes!

This may come as a shock, but we have an affinity for bookish Halloween costumes—you just can’t go wrong! So here are some of our all time favorite Halloween costumes inspired by literature that we’d give ALL the candy to. Well, all the candy we haven’t already eaten.
