Chopsticks come in various length and you might want to use different size origami paper accordingly. Our chopsticks turned out to be fairly long, at over 8 inches and we used a larger 8 1/4 inch origami paper so that the chopsticks will fit nicely in the wrapper. And they did!

From Maria in Quezon City " Origami Chopstick Holder - very easy to make. Made by my 10 year old child!"
From Levie in Brisbane " Modified chopstick holder, made in plain black to match my bento furoshiki (also pictured). I shortened the width to 10cm which made a much tighter fit and it holds the chopsticks without needing to flick up the bottom so a much smoother finish. "
Nice modification, Levie!
From Chelsea in Calgary "Origami Chopstick Holder. This was so fun and easy!My new neighbors came over for dinner (luckly they were aisan and they knew how to use chopsticks)S i made this and decorated them with wishing stars! "
From Kim in Woodland " Origami chopstick wrapper made with a dollar bill. It's not a square piece, but it worked nicely and would be the perfect size for a regular-sized pair of chopsticks. I didn't happen to have any on hand. I made this after I made the four designs made for dollar bills, so my dollar was quite beaten up by this point. "
