We wanted to make a bracelet from these sweet little bee and flower charms, but they have only one hole! How to link them nicely together? We decided to test our new Eurotool two-hole metal punch on them. With a little trial and error (some of the first holes were drilled partway off the edges of the charms), it worked great! It cut nice round holes through the charms, with no deformation.
