Michelle:

This e-mail is about the toy...I don't know you know it or not, but take
look the pic I send you first...
There are 3 components here...Feathers, Straw, Coin..
First, make a hole in the Coin...(or a material piece) the size of the
hole must be suitable for the straw...then glue the straw(about 2-3cm)
in the coin....collect feathers..( more than one...i suggest you to put
more feathers, but it depands how big A feather you put in)...after
that, glue feathers in straws..Make sure, they are all fix in the
coin...then you can also sew a cloth to cover that coin(also help the
fix of the straw)...Oh, I suggest you pick a thicker coiner...or you can
stick two coin together!!!(one with hole, another is not)
