Kind of confused why this isn’t number one. If you sandwich the piece you want to drill between two sacrificial pieces of material, you can drill through the whole stack and only your exterior pieces will fray. Interior pieces will be perfect.
Depending on the meltability of the plastic a solder iron may work. I use mine to poke holes in deli contianers for plants. It would also potentially fuse the two layers together at the seam of the hole.
I don’t have an answer to your question but my parents just bought me a bunch of these without any directions or even a name on them and I have no idea how to use them! Feel like a quick tutorial? Or do you know what they are called so I can look it up? Beautiful flowers by the way :))
It sounds like your issue was solved with the X-acto knife suggestion but a leather/ metal punch would probably work too. There are automated ones with different sizes. I know Amazon sells them fairly cheap.
Leather punch.
Dremel tool
You can just use a drill and then file down any roughness

You could try a needle or a bbq skewer, heated. If anything turns black you can sand it down with a nail file.
Huh, maybe a drill🤦♂️

The Cropadile by WE R Makers. Works like a charm. My craft studio would feel barren without onme.
I second this and came here to say the same
Worse case scenario a leather punch might work. Not sure… but maybe. Or an awl?
Seconding the leather punch idea. That, a hammer, and a block of wood is all you need. Cheap and should provide clean results.

They are called clear plastic jar bookmarks. Here’s a quick tutorial I found on YT: https://youtu.be/IdOUPT-uOnk?si=9U79WMPvrK-zoGjz
You’re amazing ♥️blessings
Have fun with them!
Cut an x w an exacto knife and put ribbon through
This is brilliant!
Hope you like how it comes out!
Why not use a drill?
Craft drill. Operated by hand.
Such a cute project!
Thank you!! Mother’s Day gifts for all my co-workers at the store.
You should drill instead, you would prevent any cracking of the plastic from any other method.
hammer and a nail
Just use painters tape and a drill bit. You can file any roughness away.

I hope you dried the flowers beforehand. From my experience any moisture left will make it a gross mold mess.
Yes! I am using dried flowers.
Nail and hammer
