Melt your batches of chocolate chips into a double boiler. You can also use a microwave to melt the chocolate, 30 second bursts at half power, stirring in between.
Dip each strawberry in chocolate. Place each strawberry on parchment paper to set.
Add a contrasting color of chocolate to a piping bag, snip the tip off and pipe over the dipped part of the strawberry to create stripes.

Notes
Dry the strawberries well. Chocolate and water don't mix well! Make sure the strawberries are as dry as possible after you wash them before starting the chocolate-dipping process so the chocolate sticks. Also, the chocolate will bind best to room-temperature strawberries rather than cold strawberries.
Use the right-sized vessel for dipping. The best thing to pour melted chocolate into for dipping the strawberries is an 8-ounce cup or shot glass. You can also use a small bowl but make sure it has sufficient depth. You want to be able to easily dunk the strawberries straight into the chocolate so they are submerged just up to the stem for a neat, even coating.
Strategically place strawberries on the baking sheet. Be conscious of where you place each strawberry on the wax paper-covered baking sheet once they've been dipped so they don't touch one another and get stuck together. Additionally, when you set each berry on the prepared baking sheet, lightly push it forward on the bottom of the sheet about ½ inch to prevent a chocolate puddle from forming underneath.
Refrigerate the strawberries to help set the chocolate. Depending on the temperature of your kitchen, it may take the chocolate a while to set at room temperature. While you can leave the strawberries at room temperature for the chocolate to harden, you can also speed up the setting process by placing the baking sheet of dipped strawberries in the refrigerator for 10-15 until the chocolate hardens.
