planted trees and artisan market and ikea sofas?

bright and sunny day again!
time to go out and about...
today is national tree day... 2 yrs ago, we planted stuff at the local reserve...

this year, we arrived at the brickworks chimneys...

there were heaps of people at sydney park... lots of kiddies... mcduck's fave lion's club sausage sizzle... bloke with reptile and native animal friends...

then off to eveleigh artisan markets (1st sunday of the month) at darlinton trainworks...

also lots of people (but not too crowded) and some genuinely cool DIY / made by the seller stuff...

we wandered into an artspace just opposite the market...
oh... klippan sofa's 30th bday! over 4 mil of them haave been sold since 1979 and we have two at home!

aussie artists have teamed up with ikea to refashion the klippans and they are being auctioned at graysonline...

here's a selection of them... magnetic pots and pans klippan
