- Instructions
-
-
Using a small handsaw or needle-nose pliers, cut the tops off the chopsticks so they measure about 6 inches. -
Sharpen the pointed ends in a pencil sharpener and dull the points with a nail file. Paint them if you'd like.
-
For beaded chopsticks, cut a 10-inch length of wire and center it about 1 1/2 inches from the top of the chopstick. Wrap it tightly around the stick several times, then twist the two portions of wire together a few times. Thread beads onto the wire, bend the ends over, and clip off the excess. -
For feathered chopsticks, glue feathers to the top of the stick and wrap them tightly with wire.
-
To display your dazzlingly decorated sticks, poke them into a bun or ponytail.
