Chopsticks
Chopsticks are an essential part of Asian food culture, and they are used for eating a variety of foods.
They are made from a variety of materials, including wood, bamboo, metal, and plastic.
Chopsticks can be disposable or reusable.
Disposable chopsticks are typically made from wood or bamboo and are often given out for free with takeout food.
They are not meant to be reused and should be disposed of properly after use.
Reusable chopsticks can be made from a variety of materials, including wood, bamboo, metal, and plastic.
They can be washed and reused multiple times.
You can use leftover disposable chopsticks from a take out restaurant for the craft or you can buy nicer ones.
I used sustainable, reusable bamboo chopsticks that look nicer than disposables, but are still low priced.
Washi Tape
Washi tape is a type of decorative tape that originated in Japan.
It is made from natural materials, such as rice paper, and comes in a wide variety of colors and patterns.
Washi tape is often used for crafting, scrapbooking, and journaling, but it can also be used for a variety of other purposes, including these cute rainbow chopsticks.
The tape is not as sticky as other types of tape, so it can be removed or repositioned without leaving residue behind.
I used a sparkly roll of washi tape with diagonal rainbow stripes, when I made this craft.
Make yours like mine or come up with your own unique design.
Use a single roll of washi tape or combine different rolls to create the look you want.
Rainbow Colors
Rainbows are beautiful, when you see them in the sky.
Naturally, the colors are also pretty to use when crafting.
Do you know the acronym ROYGBIV?
It stands for the colors of the rainbow, which are
- Red
- Orange
- Yellow
- Green
- Blue
- Indigo
- Violet
These colors are beautiful on their own, but they are even more stunning when they are combined to create a rainbow.
Washi tape is available in rainbow prints and as individual colors of the rainbow.
This makes it the perfect material for creating these easy rainbow washi tape chopsticks.
Glue
You don’t need glue for this project, but it can be helpful.
If your tape isn’t super sticky or you want the chopsticks to last longer, you can add glue.
Regular white school glue is a good choice, since it dries clear and is easy to clean up.
