Buy Nothing Day: Oops!

I have to confess I was aware of today being Buy Nothing Day. A few blogs I regularly read had mentioned it (More Ways to Waste Time and Apartment Therapy Green) and you can find a more balanced review of the idea on Treehugger's post. I completely failed to buy nothing! Though the purchase was online and had been given a lot of thought, I still purchased and consumed on Black Friday. I might as well tell you that I purchased the pear print fabric designed by Marimekko of Finland. You can find very nice retro fabric from Repro Depot. This piece is going to go in the kitchen stretched over a large canvas frame.
