Hey Soda,
Don't forget to grab some of the packing foam from those boxes you see here and there. Also, paintbrush bristles, cellophane, and poly rope work great for wings, dental floss & christmas tree tinsle for ribbing, and chain from old ceiling fans are great for bead eyes, and so on. I've even gone so far as to use a chunk of wadded & rolled up aluminum foil for body material.
You're not a nut, you're just... uh, creative... yeah yeah, that's it...creative!
