For lovers of Asian food, here is a really very easy fold that will brighten up your table setting in just a few folds. It is a chopstick sleeve, designed by Fumiaki Shingu. To fold it, you will need a 15 cm square, ideally of two-colour paper (duo paper, with a different colour on each side), to get the small decorative border on the finished model. Itadakimasu!!!

To complete the table, the little duck chopstick rest is folded from a small square of 8 or 10 cm, also preferably in two-colour paper, as both sides will show on the finished model. For both of these origami, many folds have no fixed reference points, so it is up to you to adjust their position to get a shape you like.
