Since I am living in Singapore for the next few months and much of the blog has been dedicated to our travels, I thought why not post some fun Asian DIY projects along the way. And what better place to start other than DIY chopstick wrappers? What a fun way to jazz up any Asian inspired dinner party. Not only do chopsticks alone add some necessary Asian flare, but making your own personalized wrappers will really impress your guests. These are made out of origami paper, but you can get creative and use whatever paper/design you like.
Supplies
- 1 sheet of origami paper 6 x 6 inches
- Tape (optional)
Directions
Step 1. Fold the sheet of paper in half. Open out and then fold both long edges into the midline and fold, so that the fold lines divide the paper into four columns.
Step 2. Open out so that the wrong side is facing up. On the top right hand corner, fold the corner over so that it is in line with the right fold line. On the top left hand corner, fold the corner over so that it is in line with the middle fold line.
Step 3. Fold the right side into the midline.
Step 4. Fold the left side over as photographed and fold behind. Secure with a small piece of tape if necessary.
