Day 49:

"Quantity over quality.  Work with a lot of something."

Buttons.  I have lots of buttons.  I save the spares attached to new clothes, any that fall off and never get replaced as well as cutting them off things to be thrown out.  From time to time I buy them for a project and there will be one or two left over.  I drop them all in a jar and they become eyes on stuffies, get used in children's projects, sewn on to an new project or replace a missing button. 

I created an apple tree with a pond hosting a turtle and frog and wild flowers in the field under a starry sky.  You just need a little imagination to see it. (Note: that there is a heart carved into the tree trunk.)
