Lay one set of beads on a flat surface. Lay all other beads you want to use in your twisted necklace creation beside these beads on the same flat surface side-by-side.
Split the beads so that you have an even amount of beads for two sides. Gather an even amount of beads in one hand and fold the beaded strands in half.
Gather the remaining beaded strands and fold them over the center of all the previously folded beads to interlock both sets.
Twist the two sets of beads in opposite directions to create the twisting effect.
Push a ribbon through the ends of one bead set. Tie the ribbon in a knot. Push another ribbon through the ends of the second bead set and tie this ribbon in a knot. Connect the ends of the two ribbons and tie them in a bow to wear your twisted necklace around your neck.
