Beaded Puffy Hearts + Charm Bracelet w/ Re-ment pieces

Made w/ 4mm Swarovski crystal bicone beads. The 2 on the right are each made w/ two similar colors to give a nice effect.  I'm missing a blue heart to make a complete rainbow set but it's hard to buy what I want because my local bead store is always out on the colors I want.

I think all of these Re-ment pieces were from the Bread & Butter series. To turn Re-ment pieces into charms, I used a  safety pin to poke a tiny hole on the top before I screwed in a screw-eye into the item. I noticed that I was unable to insert screw-eyes into some Re-ment pieces, such as the lollipop from the Fun Meals set. I tried and tried but the screw-eye would not go in because the plastic material was very rigid. So I gave up and was left with a damaged piece with a scratched surface from the safety pin & screw-eye.
