If you're giving money as gifts, here are some funny folding techniques. I love the too-cool-for-school Abe Lincoln.

So fun! Love "The Abe". Thanks for sharing.
Clever, and lovely! I will attempt this today. Love it. Thanks for sharing with us Joanna.
thats pretty awesome!@
Thanks. I wonder if they'll look as cool using Canadian money.
My boyfriend's grandfather folds dollar bills into bow ties behind his back, and so I'll have to show him these so he can learn some new tricks! :)
Hahah...those are awesome! Kisses.
This is so cool !xx

Abe looks like he could have his own rap album like that! The camera is blowing my mind. I wonder if I could create teeny tiny film, too...
Best idea ever. Love Abe & the little camera!!

My hairdresser made all origami money gifts last year for her immediate family. They were gorgeous & way over more than $1 but so heartfelt. They were absolutely gorgeous. This is a fun idea.
That Abe Lincoln one is AWESOME!
:)
Hehe! These are so cute! Reminds me of something else I also saw the other day, with paper folding..

These are amazing!!!!
These are great! When I was a diner waitress in high school, there was an old guy that sat at the counter and his tip was always folded fancy.
hi!

the crab is out of control, real talent to do something that detailed with paper.
wow, that takes some serious skill!
These are genius!!! :)
This is so awesome! I had to share it with my dad... he gives us folded money every year on our birthdays and Christmas.
This is genius! Goodbye to money being a 'boring' gift! x
whoa these are awesome!
Abe is hilarious! And how on earth did they make those perfect car wheels!? Crazy!
This is so clever! Definitely have those few people that end up getting money...

I've done the shirts, but these are wonderful! I'll ahve to pass them on - there's another teacher at my work who does flowers and diapers - she'd love this!

How fun!
That is such a good idea! Giving money pretty much lacks a personal touch so to do something like origami with it would give it that little extra something to make it more thoughtful. I must remember this for when my baby nephews eventually reach that age!
Genius, I wonder if I could do the first one with the queen?
o my goodness...the camera is precious

Good idea! Hubby got money folded into airplanes once. Cutest things ever. Thanks for the suggestion.

sage, I think that's a spider. The crab is slightly different - here's a link:

did you also know you can fold a koi from a dollar bill? It even had scales, it's totally crazy! Took my husband several days to fold his first one. Here are the instructions:

Jo, my husband makes BOTH of these, plus a "dime-in-ring," a folded ring from a dollar bill that includes a bezel setting with a dime in it. He's so cute! (and mad talented!)
I love these ideas! Yay for back to the Future and monster socks -- haha, they crack me up. :)

That is incredible. All of a sudden, everyone on my list is going to be getting money origami for Christmas...
Haha! That's cool :)
I'm from Australia and I remember from childhood a rude thing you used to be able to make with our $5 note...very rude! You could fold it so that it made Queen Elizabeth's neck (with her pearl necklace) look like a whale pleasing a man's you-know-what...very strange but true! haha...wow...must've been 15 years since I thought of that!
Wow. What an amazing idea!! Too cool!!
This is awesome!!!

This is amazing!
