Somewhere along the way, women were sold a quiet lie: tone it down as you get older. Choose beige. Stick to black. Don’t draw attention. Blend in gracefully.
No thank you.
At Feather and Twigs, we believe ageing is not a cue to fade into the background—it’s permission to turn the volume up. Style is not something you age out of. Confidence doesn’t retire at 50. And colour? Colour is not childish, desperate or inappropriate. Colour is...
At Feather & Twigs, every card we stock has been chosen with care. Behind each design is a talented independent maker or artist with a story worth telling. We believe that when you send a card, you're not just sharing a message — you're sharing a piece of someone's craft and creativity. Here's a little introduction to the wonderful makers behind our greeting card collection.
There’s always one, isn’t there?
The dad who insists he doesn’t need a thing.
Who shrugs when you ask what he’d like.
Who quietly fixes, carries, makes, and mends… and asks for nothing in return.
And yet — those are often the dads we want to get right the most.
This Father’s Day, instead of searching for more, we’re choosing meaning. Slower, quieter, more thoughtful gifts that feel like him. The kind that don’t shout, but stay.
At Feather & Twigs, every product we stock tells a story. It’s not just about how something looks on a shelf — it’s about how it’s made, who made it, and the values behind it. That’s why we are so proud to work with small independent suppliers like Cosy Cottage Soap whose ethos aligns beautifully with our own.
In a world of mass production and next‑day delivery, artisan gifts offer something increasingly rare: meaning. Choosing a handmade gift is not just about buying an object; it’s about supporting creativity, skill, and time‑honoured processes that cannot be rushed or replicated by machines. Whether it’s a hand‑illustrated card, a piece of felted artwork, or jewellery made at a workbench rather than a factory line, artisan gifts carry stories within them.
At Feather & Twigs, we are passionate about bringing thoughtfully made, artisan homeware into everyday homes. Our partnership with Emma Britton Decorative Glass Designer is a perfect expression of this ethos – celebrating craftsmanship, storytelling and design that makes the practical feel truly beautiful.
At Feather & Twigs, we are proud to work with independent makers who care deeply about what they create. Our range of travel candles from The Victorian Candle Co. is a perfect example of that philosophy in practice — thoughtfully made, beautifully designed, and created with purpose.
As the days grow longer and the sunshine finally makes an appearance, summer style becomes all about finding those effortless pieces that look good and work hard. At Feather & Twigs, we believe a great summer hat is one of those essentials – and that’s why we’re delighted to stock a carefully chosen range of summer hats from Black Ginger, a brand celebrated for combining timeless design with everyday practicality.
When it comes to creating a space that feels warm, personal, and thoughtfully put together, lampshades and cushions are often the unsung heroes. These finishing touches have the power to soften a room, add personality, and gently tie everything together—without the need for a full redesign.
At Feather and Twigs, we’re drawn to pieces that feel timeless, meaningful, and rooted in nature, which is why we’re proud to collaborate with British designer Lorna Syson. Her l...
At Feather and Twigs, we believe wooden toys should do more than look beautiful on a shelf. The right toy can support your child’s development, spark imagination, and become something they return to again and again. With so much choice available, knowing what to look for can make all the difference.
Thursdays are my “free day” It’s the day I usually catch up on admin, sort stock, and organise orders. But it’s also a day with special meaning, as it’s when I take my 85‑year‑old father to his Parkinson’s exercise class in Penwortham.
As many of you know, I walk my dog, Guess, every day. This got me thinking — why not turn those daily walks into something that could help others? So, throughout the month of May, I’ll be taking on a 100‑mile walking challenge...
