Welcome To  The Blog!

Hello Everyone! Living in the city, you forget about the vastness of nature that surrounds you. All you see are concrete blocks, tall windowpanes and wind-tunnel alleys that blast you, should a particularly strong wind pass through the buildings. What little piece of nature the cities do have is in the form of a park or two, already mowed to the soil, with quaint flowerbeds lining some of the edges. Or you’re met with tarmac playgrounds for children. There really isn’t any fo

Hello Everyone! I know I’ve been talking a lot about video games, and I cannot stop singing praises for all my cosy games and life simulations. Well, what if I told you that those aren’t just the only games I play. I have and always will play another type: the click and point puzzle games. However, these aren’t just any ordinary click and point puzzle games. These are Nancy Drew puzzle games, developed by Her Interactive. Source I have played these games ever since I can reme

Hello Everyone! I have been around the world many times. I’ve been to several countries, but every time I leave, I feel like I haven’t seen enough. There are still so many places I want to visit, so many things I want to see, and so many aspects of the culture I have yet to experience. So, I always make a mental note, as I travel back to my home in the UK, to save up so I can visit those countries again. Where are these countries you ask? Good question. Here are 4 of them. 1.

Hello Everyone! With everything becoming more expensive, it seems like there’s more need now to have a stable job so you can get stable money, to pay for the things you want and need. Honestly, that has been my thinking for the last 10 years, ever since I joined the workforce, but is it the right way of thinking? For as long as I can remember, I have been scared to be unemployed, because I have lived with a lifestyle that requires constant buying of certain products and servi

Hello Everyone! Books! Nothing beats reading a good book. Whether it’s a classic that puts you to sleep, or a thriller, romance or drama that has you reading until 4am, reading is one of the best ways to expand your vocabulary. Now, I’ve seen videos online, where people complain about the variety of words that some books have, and many who have asked authors to dumb down their books for people to read. I would argue…what would be the point? Reading should not just be about fi

Hello Everyone! It’s that time of the year again, where the weather is turning, the leaves are falling, and winter is coming (I’m not sure if the reference is intended…but we’ll go with it). Some of us love winter, some of us don’t, so I have a few suggestions. Today, I’ll be talking about the 4 countries I recommend visiting, in winter. Some of them will be far from the winter chill, and others will embrace it, so come with me around the world, to either escape the season or

Hello Everyone! So, I’ve mentioned before that Feather’s Charm used to be many things before it became what it is today. That’s because over the years (decades even), she (yes, Feather is a “she”) has been a constant presence in my life. What started out as a diary of sorts has now become a platform for me, to express my artistic and creative interests. So, let me walk you through what Feather’s Charm used to be, and what I hope it will eventually become. What’s In A Name? Th

Hello Everyone! We all get bored, on vacation and it’s during those quiet moments that you aren’t doing anything, or just winding down, after a long day that you don’t really want to think about or do anything. It's in these moments that I love playing my cosy games. You all know I love my cosy games, who doesn’t? For the most part, they are harmless, and they fill up the time you’re not doing anything. So, why not play a game or two? Not to mention, some of them don’t even r

Hello Everyone! Today, we’re taking a look at some of my favourite restaurants here in London. Now, if you know me, you’ll know I love my food. Who doesn’t? Of course, I haven’t been to all the restaurants in London, there are so many I don’t think it would be possible, but we’ll have a gander through, and see what the best ones are, at least for me. I’m talking about both major chains and some dinky little spaces that really charmed me, when I found them. So, join me at the

Hello Everyone! I think it’s time I addressed this. I keep talking about the end of 2024 and the whole of 2025 as my sporadic year, and that’s because, throughout that time, my videos were all over the place. I ended the 2023 My Bullet Journal Journey series around April time, in 2024, and since then didn’t post more than 2 episodes of the next part of that series, for 2025, and for a good chunk of the year I didn’t post anything at all. Then, suddenly I started posting more

Hello Everyone! Today, we’re talking about video games, particularly Life Simulation and RPG games. Now, I’ve already touched on this subject a little, in a previous post, where I talk about the games I play at home, when I have a particularly slow day. This time, I’ll specifically talk about Life Simulations and Role Playing Games (RPG). There are loads out there, and it can be difficult to know which one to start playing. So, here are my top 5 Life Sim & RPG video games. 1.

Hello Everyone! If you know me, you’ll know I love my parks, especially ones that let nature roam about and live freely. Now, when I mean park, I mean conservation areas, the larger swathes of land that is literally protected, so that the natural wildlife of an area has somewhere to live. I’ve been to many of them before, and there have been some memorable ones that I would be happy to go back to, again and again. So, you know the drill. In this post I’ll be highlighting the

Hello Everyone! Today, I’m going to be talking about Feather’s Charm itself, and the latest updates I’d like to give you about it. As you all know, it’s become an arts and crafts blog website, and a follow-up showcase of all the videos I create for YouTube, but it wasn’t always like this. In fact, it started more like an online diary for myself, where I ranted and talked about my everyday life, as a sulky and moody teenager/young adult (it was called something different back

Hello Everyone! In the past, I was always stressed out, whether it was from trying to keep up with Feather's Charm and all the content I wanted to make, to actual issues at work and at home, and with all that’s going on now, I’m still stressed. Sometimes, it does overwhelm me, but there is one way I’ve managed to counteract it, and that’s by going to spas. Now, granted, many of them are expensive, but there are a few budget places I’ve been to that have really helped me, even

Hello Everyone! Today’s post is all about things you can do, outside of London. As someone who lives on the edge of the city, I have easy access to things both within it, and outside it, and most of the time, I tend to enjoy the activities outside of London. Of course, that doesn’t mean I don’t also enjoy the city as well, it’s just sometimes, it can be too loud and too busy, so escaping to the closest countryside or park re-centres my equilibrium. That's why I suggest not on

Hello Everyone! Today, we are talking about movies, specifically, movies that I’d watch over and over again, or at least more than once. Now, some of them will be ones you know, others might not be, but they all definitely bring me back time and again, because either their story is something I relate to, or because it’s just that good. Movies are what started me on my current path (career-wise), and while I’m not in the film industry, per se, I still look at the techniques, t

Hello Everyone! Today, I’ve got a new post for you! This time, it’s about travelling and exploring! That’s right, I’m finally addressing this section. I will eventually update the Lush London series, but as of right now, I don’t have the funds to finance those videos. So, you’re getting some listicles. Now, I’ve visited London many times, and while most are attractive, tourist spots, there are a few places that I’ve been to, where even though it can get busy, it’s still a coo

Hello Everyone! Today I’m back here, partially to populate this section of the website, and because I have another listicle for you. This time, I’m talking about TV, yes including Netflix, Disney+ & Prime Video. When I’m not feeling up to playing any games, or I’m just not in the mood to do anything that requires too much brain power, I pick up the crochet pattern I’m working on and put on some good ol’ television. Of course, I have all the subscriptions, YouTube, Netflix, Di

Hello Everyone! It’s been a while since I’ve tackled a lifestyle post like this, and when I sat down to write it, I honestly wasn’t sure what I wanted to talk about. Of course, that’s not to say I don’t have something to talk about (I always have something to talk about), and as you can probably tell it’s going to be all about the things I like to do on a lazy day. For this particular post, it’ll be all about the games I like to play, when I’m not busy making videos, doing th

Hello Everyone! I know it’s been a while, here on Feather’s Charm. Don’t worry, I haven’t forgotten my own website, since this is what started everything off, but because I know YouTube is one of the more popular spaces for bloggers and vloggers like me, I have been keeping my focus on YouTube. So, yes, the website will suffer a little bit, but I will still try my best to upload new articles and update the website as quickly as I can. Of course, I might be able to keep up my
