Welcome To  The Blog!

Hello Everyone! Today, I’m going to talk about the differences between minimalism and maximalism, and which end of the spectrum I like more. After all, there are some aspects of both design choices that I like. For example, I like a clean kitchen, free counter tops, tables and surfaces, but sometimes I like the look of full shelves or cluttered cupboards, but which is better? Let’s take a look. 1. Minimalism = Easier Cleaning One thing I love about minimalistic designs is t

Hello Everyone! I’m so glad you’re here. It’s August, and it’s Thursday! You know what that means. It’s blog post time! So, if you haven’t seen my YouTube channel yet, I’ve made this month’s house build, and it’s an island themed one. Check it out if you haven’t already. So, here’s the thing, I was really debating whether or not I should go for the island theme or a coastal theme. Essentially, I wasn’t sure if I wanted to do a Sulani build or a Brindleton Bay build. I had, fo

Hello Everyone! I’m back with another Plant Something New post, and this time, we’re talking about keeping your plants hydrated, especially in the summer. As you all know, I recently went on vacation, and because I have some plants that require a bit more attention than my succulents, I needed a way to keep them hydrated. Of course, there are plenty of ways to do that, and while I didn’t implement all of them, when I went away, I do know of some methods that help. So, let’s g

Hello Everyone! This post is a little different from the normal Build The Dream post, because I don’t have a video to attach here. This one is an opinion post, because I don’t want to just fill this section with videos. After all, you can find them on my YouTube channel, which I highly recommend you check out. Anyway, today’s post, as you can see, is a list of all my favourite build types in The Sims 4. Now, bear in mind, these build types are based on real builds, but with m

Hello Everyone! It’s been a while since I last spoke about an interior design or even an organisation topic. Of course, that’s all because I’m back on track with my blog posts now, and we can get back to the planned schedule. Anyway, let’s move on, because I’ll talk about this in another blog post, and let’s talk about throwing out things you don’t need. For some of you, you’ll know that I’m a little bit of a hoarder (if I’m a hobby hoarder, you’ll know I have stashes and sta

Hello Everyone! It’s that time again, where we talk about plants and growing things. This time, I’m talking about one of the most beginner friendly plants to start out with, when you want to start growing your own garden. I’m talking about succulents. Ok, so it’s already in the title, but succulents are such good plants to grow, especially with the growing issue of climate change. There are certain succulents that can survive and thrive in the ever-changing seasons, especiall

Hello Everyone! I think you all know what time it is! It’s Build Time! Ok, so this week, I have a community build ready for you. This one, I actually wasn’t sure about. I had initially planned for a brewery, or a vineyard, like the ones you see in the Tuscany region or the south of France, but when I opened up the game and began building, I realised what could be better than a bistro, or a luxury restaurant? Europe is known for their pride in good food. You have Italy and Gre

Hello Everyone! The latest Sims Stop Motion Build video is up, and this time, we’re going full summer! This month’s theme, if you haven’t already guessed is a Hacienda style build. Now I’ll explain it all in a bit, but if you haven’t watched the video yet, you can check it out here. Ok, so let’s get on with the blog post. This time I chose a Hacienda style home, because of course I need to; it’s summer, it’s hot, and what says “hot” more than “hacienda” (it actually means “ta

Hello Everyone! Today, I have another Plant Something New blog post for you. This time, I’m talking about propagation. I mentioned in my previous posts that I’ve tried to propagate my current indoor plants, before, and while I’ve been successful for the most part, I have had some failures too. In fact, one of the succulent plants I have is not the original. It was grown from a “baby” my previous succulent grew. I just managed to plant it at the right time and in the right con

Hello Everyone! It’s time to talk about plant growing and all that jazz. Ok, so if you’ve read my previous post, you’ll know that I’ve become a plant mom. I started growing some indoor plants a few years ago, and have developed a love for it, and every so often, whenever I’m at the garden centre, I just have to pick up a new plant. Why? Because I want to see how far my gardening skills have gone. I’m not at the stage yet, where I can start building raised flower beds and grow

Hello Everyone! Today’s post is a little different from the regular schedule. Now, I haven’t spent much time on this section of the blog, purely because I’ve never really had enough time to upload a Sims build and make a blog post for it, before. However, with the recent changes in my personal life, I now have that time. So, what does that mean for this section? Well, if you’ve been keeping up with my Patreon page (which I highly recommend you do, and if you are able to help

Hello Everyone! We’re back with another Sims Stop Motion Build video. So, what do I have in store for you today? Well, we’re finally caught up, and it’s the June build! This month, as you already know, is Jungle month…for me, at least. I’ve got a new one for you, which, honestly, is probably going to be one of the top 5s in my book. I’ve never done a build like this before, and I was pretty nervous when I started it, but when I got into the flow, I realised just how easy it

Hello Everyone! I’m back with another Sims build for you. It’s the build that was supposed to go up in May, but as we all know, a lot happened, and I couldn’t get it on my YouTube channel on time, but it’s here now. I did tell you I was going to be hitting you hard with all these videos for these two weeks. So, what did I build in May? Well, as you can see, we went with a cottagecore theme! That’s right, May was my absolute favourite architectural type. The quaint little coun

Hello Everyone! This is new…I’ve not seen this page before…Oh wait, this used to be the “Let’s Get Organised” section of the blog. What happened? Well, first of all, let me tell you how difficult it is to write a blog post about organisation, specifically organisation of items in the home. I realised the error of my ways, and have reshuffled the single post that used to be in here, into the “Make A House A Home” section of the blog, because it makes more sense there, and hone

Hello Everyone! We’re finally here! The build for April is finally up! It is nothing short of a miracle it’s finally complete, there were times over the past couple of months where I debated whether or not to finish it, but we’re here, it’s done, and it’s looking absolutely gorgeous. I’m sure you’re wondering why it took me so long to complete. First off, it’s not for a lack of trying. For the most part, while I was building this house, I was going through some personal thing

Hello everyone! It has been a while. I know this video is quite old, compared to the stuff I’ve been putting out, lately, but I did promise to write about this particular build, as I have done with previous videos. Now, if you don’t know what I’m talking about, you can find the video of that I’ll be referring to here… So, a while back, when I was still working solely on my Mac, I created this house, and while the quality of the video is quite…unrefined, I still love the build

Hello Everyone! It’s that time again, to take a look at how to design your home, without the help of a professional. Obviously, I’m not a professional myself, but after playing The Sims for so long, and using it to make and decorate my own dream homes, I will be sharing with you what I think should go into a home to make it aesthetically pleasing. So, here are my top 3 tips to creating your home’s aesthetic and how you can play into it. 1. Choose A Colour Palette One of the

Hello Everyone! Today’s post is all about colour palettes, particularly colour palettes with a theme. Initially, I wanted to do a post about neutral colour palettes, but I realised, why not make themes out of your rooms! Granted, some of these themes can be considered neutral if paired with a neutral wall colour, or if they’re simply accent colours in the room, but if you want overall themes, then why not paint your room in one of the darker colours, or better yet, hang up ta

Hello Everyone! It’s time for another section to get a blog post, and today, we’re talking about organisation, and especially organising your office space. Now, I personally don’t have an office at home (I work from my desk in my bedroom), but if I did have an office, I already know what I want to do, to keep it organised, and clean. Why? Why not! Your office is one of the spaces where you spend the most time, especially if you work from home. So, it’s always a good idea to k

Hello Everyone! Welcome to the new and improved Feather’s Charm website! It’s been a while in the making, but we’re finally here, and to start us off with this new section, let’s take a look at some decor ideas that can help you elevate your home for the summer. Even home decor items follow trends and seasons, and I love watching them change, as the seasons do. Although some trends never get old, there are those that surprise me and even give me inspiration, both for my Sims
