The gentleman on this next video, Jerry from “yesmagic” on YouTube, explains and shows you how to make a more casual shirt, but with a pair of pants to go with it. The video of the dog is a bit trickier to follow, as there is no sound or text to help you along, so I had to go back several times in order to catch just what the next step was, but I made it in the end. The videos I included are my favorite ones.
#MONEY ORIGAMI PANTS PROFESSIONAL#
I watched other videos as well, where they took you through the process in a very professional looking manner, but didn’t do nearly as good of a job explaining and helping you to see what you’re trying to do. Nothing is rushed, but show you in detail just how to do it. The first few videos were made by such nice, encouraging gentlemen who help you step by step. I did find that if the used bills had folds in them prior to the project, more so than just being soft and worn, it made it more confusing to fold since it was harder to know which fold to use. I have included a picture of my final product for each item.

Since I had a limited supply of newer bills, I practiced on some softer, used ones at first until I had an idea of what I was trying to do, then I did it on a stiff, new bill to make the end product look nice and neat. One of the first things I did, was to get a hold of some nice, crisp dollar bills. I am concluding that if I can do this, that means you probably can, too! Since I am not very experienced in origami, I found the videos to be very helpful. It was so much fun, so I’d like to share a couple of these videos along with the creations I made. I watched a video on this, and thought it was really neat, so I decided to give it a try. Equally amazing is Tine De Ruysser’s 6 necklaces made from banknotes from 6 different countries (China, USA, Australia, Europe, South Africa, Argentina).Today, just for the fun of it, I want to post about making origami creations using American $1 bills. Even more amazing is Stephen Watson’s modular swan which is made of 500 (scanned) five-pound British notes.

Joe Gilardi made Five Intersecting Tetrahedra using 30 USA one-dollar bills. Shown on the right: This modular star is made from 5 Canadian five-dollar bills. Here, two or more bills are folded and combined to form a larger model. On occasion, people will use money to fold modular origami models. There are many diagrams for folding $origami models. The smallest British note is 5 pound and the smallest Japanese note is 1000 yen. In contrast, the smallest Canadian bill is $5 and in Mexico, the smallest bill is $10 neuvos peso. The lowest American dollar bill is worth $1, thus you can afford to fold and give away a dollar. Why is this? It is not possible to explain the tendencies of the American public, but here is It’s an interesting twist to the age-old concept of cash gifts.ĭollar bill folding can be done in any country, but it is particularly popular in USA. They can also be given as wedding present, for example, a dollar bill butterfly. Delightfully folded money can be given as tips, for example, in restaurants.
