Welcome To  The Blog!

Hello Everyone! As you all know, I am starting to expand my gardening repertoire, and I’m looking to start growing herbs in my home and garden. One of those herbs is mint. I love my mint plants, because there are so many uses for them. Not only are they great in food, but they’re great at keeping a home free from pests and they are great for antibacterial cleaning products. Who knew, right? I didn’t…well…that’s not true, I learned about it in school, and I know for a fact tha

Hello Everyone! As you all know, I love building houses in The Sims 4. Now, granted, my favourite medium is The Sims 4, but I am also exploring other video games and creating houses in unique and different ways that test my imagination and creativity. Mind you, I haven’t played these other games for very long, and no, I’m not just talking about InZoi and Paralives. There are other games where you can build your own home, from the ground up, like in Palia, or Disney Dreamlight

Hello Everyone! We all want cosy homes that have some character to them, something to say that this space is ours, and there’s nowhere in the world like it. It’s also a place we want to show off to our friends and family, have them hang out and be impressed by our style and aesthetic. Well, that is, for most of us. After all, there are those who don’t really care about how a home looks, because it’s already cosy for them, and that’s ok. I’m probably part of the latter, becaus

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! It’s finally done! The next episode of the My Bullet Journal Journey series is finally out. As I mentioned on my social media channels, and on YouTube, this episode was going to be majorly delayed, thanks to a really bad fever I had a few weekends ago. Plus, a few commitments required my attention, so I couldn’t finish this month’s setup as quickly as I had liked. Anyway, it’s done now, and I can talk about it. But first, have you watched the video? The Theme:

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! It’s time we looked at being crafty enough to combine your crafts. So, if you’re like me, you’re a hobby hoarder, and you have lots of different projects in the works, but you don’t always have time to work on them one at a time, why don’t you combine them? That’s what many artists do, after all. It’s one of the best ways to develop multiple skills at once. So, for example, if you’re looking to develop your doodling skills and your watercolour skills, try comb

Hello Everyone! What is cross stitch? You might have heard about it, you might not, but essentially, it’s a form of embroidery that uses pixel art and embroidery stitching in the form of an “x”, which is why it’s called “cross stitch”. I’ve been following cross stitch instructions almost as long as I’ve been crocheting, and I love it. I love watching the images I’m making slowly manifest on the fabric in front of me. I love the repetition of stitching those “x’s” and filling

Hello Everyone! Today, we’re going to go back to the subject of bullet journaling. While I might show you the spreads I make, for my own bullet journal, I should also tell you how you can start making your own. It just takes some time, creativity and the will to start, and once you do, you’ll find yourself wanting to do more, adding things like washi tape, your own art, patterned paper, mixed media, paints, and everything under the sun. So, here are a few tips to help you get

Hello Everyone! Today, we’re going to be talking about growing coffee plants. I’ve tried this a couple of times before, and I was progressing well, until I made the mistake of putting the plant into a non-draining plastic container (I didn’t realise it didn’t have a drainage hole, so the roots rotted, and the plants died in the end). However, now that I’ve learned from my mistakes, I am slowly improving and growing my coffee plants into the bushes they’re meant to be. So, her

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! 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’re here, then I’m assuming you’re here to learn all about the Treble Crochet. Of course, some of you might have been redirected by my latest video tutorial, on YouTube. However, for those of you who don’t know, I made a video tutorial as well, explaining everything in this post, as I teach you how to create a Treble Crochet. So, if you’d like, check that out first, before reading on. So, now that we’re all caught up, let’s take a look at the Treble Croc

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! 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! Today’s post is all about, as you can see, beading! I’ve always been fascinated by it and wanted to give it a go. In fact, I have tried it, but only in its simplest form. I have yet to elevate my skills to a more advanced level of beading, because, as you all know, I don’t currently have a lot of time, but we will get there eventually. Essentially, as part of my jewellery making adventures, I stumbled upon beading and am slowly dipping my toes in that area of

Hello Everyone! It’s that time of the month again (no I don’t mean it in that way…although…no! That’s not it!)! It’s bullet journal time! Today, I’m coming at you with my August spread, and let me tell you, it was not easy, I mean, the execution was, but the ideas and themes I wanted to use for the August spread were much different to what I had actually made. Now, if you don’t know what I’m talking about, check out the video on YouTube, and of course, you don’t have to jump

Hello Everyone! Today I’m going to be talking about crafts other than crochet. I’m talking about knitting, sewing, embroidering and even cross stitch. Why? Well, this is an arts and crafts blog, after all, why wouldn’t I talk about needlecrafts? In all seriousness, I have tried other needlecrafts that I occasionally venture into and would like to develop, but I've not been able to just yet, after all, I’m a very busy woman, and I haven’t got all day (shoutout to those who kno
