Be My Guest | Adeline of Lady Croissant


Bonjour! My name is Adeline and I usually blog over at Lady Croissant. I've been a Keri Smith lover for years and I was thrilled when Bianca asked me to pick one of her 100 ideas and give it a go.

84. Write a list of all the things you do to escape.


• Take a walk to the nearest coffee shop (Liebling or Tim Wendelboe), get a cortado to go, go window shopping around Grünerløkka or go to an exhibition, stay quiet and get inspired. 

• Prepare a teapot of Moroccan mint tea, empty my wardrobe, get rid of everything I haven't worn in a while, reorganize.

• Watch Garden State for the 1005th time and listen to the soundtrack for hours afterwards while crafting.

• Go through all the pretty things I've collected on Tumblr and Pinterest.

• Put on 'Telephone' by Lady Gaga & Beyonce and DANCE!



Thanks for having me. Have a beautiful day!

Just a minute...
...from June. Slightly delayed, but better late than never. I had a great month.


The month began with a cup of hot chocolate at Nanna's. Many hot chocolates were drunk in June.


I bought myself three bunches of flowers from my work. Two dollars a bunch, yes please!


I spent many a late night on my computer finishing the dregs of uni work.


I handed in said dregs of uni work.


I cleaned our bedroom (a noteworthy occasion).


I admired the bright coloured doors in my street.

Messy tea party. Playing with VSCO Cam. Really good companion to IG.
Had tea and cake at C's parents' house. Tea always tastes better there!


I unearthed an old favourite (never worn) dress.


I bought a fun new iPhone case. Big news, I know!


Rode around Launceston taking pictures.


I saw a tiny waving queen.


Dexter was adorable.


The other cats were cute too.


I flew back to my home state.


I had some long train trips.






I re-explored Newcastle a little.



I ate food with people I love.


I pulled faces at this cheeky boy.



I admired varied graffiti.





I visited the Centenary Centre and showed unexpected restraint and didn't buy a thing!


I watched a possum sit at my feet and eat out of a compost bucket.


I was gifted a dozen cupcakes (which I did not finish).



...and I got married. But more on that another time :)

Be My Guest | Laura of Make Do & Mend


Hi I'm Laura and I write a blog called Make Do & Mend. I'm very happy indeed to be a guest blogger whilst Bianca is away! I had a look through Keri Smith's '100 Ideas' list, but I also browsed her blog and found another idea which I thought would be fun to try:

'Drawings of other people with the same name as me'. (I used Google as a source.)

People with the same name as me

I cant wait to try out other creative suggestions from the blog as well!
