I just use Swarovski crystals from artbeads.com.

They have many different sizes and you can buy as many or as few as you like.
Free shipping with a $10 order.

Not sure if they have ones big enough for G3 FS size or not.

I've used hotfix jewels before with some glue. You can find them at craft stores and they come in tons of sizes and colours. I usually buy them at JoAnn's.

I always use Swarovski Chatons SS29 (around 6,14 -6,32 mm)

They are also available in different sizes =)

Somebody on the board makes actual replica twinkle eyes-  I am forgetting who that was but I bought a couple of sets and really like them. They are identical to the originals...

I'll search around-  she was overseas.

She also does hats for big brothers...

Ahhhh found her.  Hatsetsut.  She is in Spain-  she used to make replicas of lots of amazing things- including the twinkle eyes in assorted colors-  her work is FLAWLESS

I'd send her a PM if I were you and ask her if she would still consider making them or if she has any for sale :)
