Dollar sign made from dollar bills

The first thing that comes to mind when the word money is a dollar sign. Let's figure out how to make it, having only one paper bill on hand.

1. Fold any paper note in half along the long side and unfold it.
2. Now bend the right and left sides of the bill to this fold.
3. Repeat and bend the sides to the middle again.
4. Next, bend the upper right corner down so that you get an acute angle from above. Flatten it. Repeat this action with the upper left corner. Also straighten. You should have a cross from the folds.
5. Bend the top along the fold lines so that you get two folds that could be opened.
6. Open the upper left corner and form a figure so that the triangle, which is in the middle, is bent inward. Your figure should resemble the letter M.
7. Close the left corner and fold the figure. You should get a right triangle on top.
8. Now fold this thin stripe so that it resembles the Latin letter S. From the bottom, leave the stripe, which will be the final stripe on the dollar sign. The whole figure should take you about 2/3 of the bill, and the dollar line - the remaining third.
9. Pull this strip through the dollar.

This is what you should get.

Origami shirt made of money

Here is such a charming shirt with a tie that you can do if you follow this simple instruction:

1. Fold the bill in half along the long edge, straighten it.
2. Bend the edges to the center line so that you get a triangle.
3. Bend this edge onto yourself again.
4. From an inverted triangle, form a narrow tie. To make it more convenient to do this, first outline the future tie with a pencil and only then fold the edges of the banknote. If you did everything right, then you will get a tie, and the top of the shirt will be slightly slanted.
5. Now put the origami of money tie up and fold the side edges to the central fold. The tie will hide under the paper - it must be carefully removed so as not to tear the origami.
6. Next, bend the opposite edge of the banknote half an inch inward - this will be the collar.
7. Leave the edge of the future collar free by 2.5-3 cm and bend the corners.
8. Spread the craft along its entire length and tackle the central seam: lower half a centimeter below the tie and bend the edges at an angle of 45 °. Repeat the same action on the tie from the side of the collar - you should get a "boat".
9. Now bend your boat so that its side edges form small sleeves for the shirt.
10. Turn the shirt face to the table and bend the bill in half.
11. Turn the shirt back towards you and place the collar over the tie.

Iron all folds well and enjoy the result of origami from money.
