Note, I started making these in January, 2024, and as of August have completed 14. I’ve had so much fun, using my sometimes whacky imagination, scrounging materials from junk stores and yard sales, and on occasion, my own home. I never spend more than a dollar or two, although in making Solvang the Ostrich I did spend $5 on the creepy doll. I generally let the materials speak to me, and the pieces evolve organically. With Solvang, though, I really wanted to make an ostrich. It’s the favorite animal of my oldest daughter Angelika’s longtime partner, Baldur. There’s an ostrich ranch in Solvang, California they visited a few years back, hence the name I chose for the piece. ~SueBee
