I purchased the straw at the dollar store. Cut the long end off of it. Squeeze the ends of the straws with pliers in order to get them to fit into the holes of the wood beads. Before putting on the other wood bead on the end, just add some other wood beads with bigger holes and some various plastic pieces that would go up and down the swivel. Finished off the end with another wood bead.
