The only thing I've seen called "paillettes" were about the size of sequins but without the facets (where the edge is bent up). This was in embroidery, and the idea was to sew them on by going up through the center hole and down at the 4 quadrants. But I do remember those ugly knit hats with the big plastic disks with an off-center hole so they hung and moved about. Robin P.
