If you are an Asian food lover and chopstick aficionado, you know that chopsticks are not just an eating utensil, but a beautiful addition to the table as well. Getting personalized chopsticks for a special meal or dinner party can take your table display over the top and let your guests know you did some extra planning. Want to get something extra special for your guests? Here is how to get personalized chopsticks.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • A computer with Internet access
  • A credit card
  1. Step 1

    Start at the Everything Chopsticks website. They have a huge collection of Japanese, Chinese and Thai chopsticks and chopstick rests and make it easy for you to personalize some sticks for your special event or dinner party. You do have to order in bulk to get a good price, so this is perfect for the wedding reception but maybe not for an intimate gathering. If the chopsticks are too big of an investment for you, simply personalize the chopstick sleeve.

  2. Step 2

    Go to the Laser Imageworks website to get some more traditional looking personalized chopsticks. Whether you want a beautiful Asian symbol or your name imprinted, this online store has what you need. You can get sticks for as low as $2.50 each, so it's definitely in the budget.

  3. Step 3
    From Adopt Shoppe

    For a smaller more elegant dinner party you may want to splurge and go to Adopt Shoppe, where they offer silver tipped (and engravable) chopsticks with a matching silver chopstick rest. These are beautiful and affordable for just a little above $20.00. You will be impressed, and so will your guests.

  4. Step 4
    From Favor Studio

    Go to Favor Studio to get a special gift for your rehearsal dinner or event by providing beautiful wooden chopsticks in a lovely wooden gift box. You can get as little as 23 chopsticks for a great price and the boxes really make a terrific presentation.

  5. Step 5

    Final stop, Glass Chopsticks. Get some really unusual chopsticks for your event. Although not personalized, they are unique and will be a treasured take home gift for invitees. Check the Resources area for links to all the sites listed.

Tips & Warnings
  • Plan ahead. Personalized gifts take some time to create and ship.
  • Be sure all the spellings on your custom chopsticks are correct before ordering.

on 1/8/2009 I just received my sample chopsticks from ChopChopSticks.com - they look AWESOME! Now I'm sure I'm going to go with them. So be forewarned their stuff seem to be a bit pricier! But I think it's worth it...it's my wedding after all!

on 9/4/2008 We used personalizechopsticks.com for our wedding favors and they came out very nicely. We received many compliments from our guests! The site was really easy to get around and the customer service was great.

on 7/15/2008 Not sure why you would start at Everything Chopsticks since they don't focus on personalizing them. Laserimageworks offers way more options for personalized chopsticks. Here is the link for them: http://www.laserimageworks.com/

on 7/9/2008 We found that LaserImageWorks has a much wider selection of actual personalization than anyone else. They did our chopsticks in Chinese and English for no extra charge! Other sites we saw that claim to personalize actually mostly just sell decorated chopsticks.
