TWISTIE Snowflake hanging decoration

 Twistie Snowflake in two sizes was assembled into a hanging object for the window 

together with my glass icicle (handmade from Czech glass on the glass burner) 

and with Czech pressed glass beads.

Twistie hanging decoration - one side with dark glass stones another one with crystal stones.

Twistie Snowflake Tutorial is available in my bead store, classic snowflake size is about 5 cm. Smaller snowflake diameter is about 3 cm and is made using the same design (smaller beading frames have shorter arms with 3 holes in each arm only).

We need to make the snowflake double-sided, because hanging decorations rotate and must be viewed from both sides.  Keep in mind that you need special Spirala Beading Frames to make these flakes - tutorial is useless without buying them.

Twistie is a one sided design, but can be beaded as a double sided snowflake too 

- you need practice and thinking about the process :) 

Some people who have practiced can do it - for those who need a how-to, I'm preparing a mini extension of the instructions for the double-sided version.

Twistie Snowfake (dark) and Himena Snowflake (white)

There are two snowflake designs on the picture above - Twistie is the darker one, white decoration is created using Himena Snowflake from previous post.


The length of the whole hanging decoration (without the fishing line) is about 17 cm.

HIMENA Snowflake - hanging decoration

HIMENA Snowflake was designed January 2025 as a double sided snowflake for window hangings and Christmas decorations. Unlike others, this one is double-sided, because hanging decorations rotate and must be viewed from both sides.
