Like a gigantic garage sale

Today our whole neighbourhood turned into a gigantic garage sale/flea market. Everyone was encouraged to set up their own stands right about anywhere, on sidewalks, in parks etc.

This was the view from our window earlier today:

We didn’t sell anything this time, since we moved quite recently and got rid of a lot of stuff then. Instead we walked around and spent the 300 SEK I had in cash. For that we got a bunch of stuff; a shelf, two plates, toys, clothes, a chair and two old Pippi-albums, that now hangs on Eowyn’s wall: 

She’s a huge Pippi-fan right now, and she got the old movies for her birthday, so these fitted perfectly.

Behind it all was Ekologisk stadsdel Majorna (ecological neighbourhood Majorna), a project with the goal to to make the whole neighbourhood more sustainable, initialized by the citizens. The project is really great, since it involves both organizations, companies and individuals. This was the second year the flea market occured and it will return every year.
