--Before all the local fly fishing stores... many fly tiers looked forward to Christmas for  a wealth of materials.
--Tinsel for the Spratley comes to mind.
--Wool, feathers, beads and coloured wires
--Raffia and translucent plastics for scuds

--Maybe you should volunteer to take the tree down at the end of the season and if a few things get misplaced.. Oh well.

--vigorous combing of your pet ... cat, rabbit, husky dog or Llama may yield some underfur dubbing.
--just soak the underfur... not the pet... in vinegar and food colouring.

definitely, skaha!  I always keep my eyes open for flashy looking christmas decorations that can be used for fly tying this time of year.  Dollar stores are good places to scrounge for unconventional materials. Feathers, marabous and furs are common.
holographic tinsels are around.
Aso,flashy colored decorative foils can be cut into thin strips and used as bodies for chironmids.
