Speaking Of Crafts

Money origami is simply the art of origami (paper folding) using paper money. While the thought of using a small $1 or $5 bill may appear to be rather limiting, the objects created are often quite impressive. Some time ago I received an email with photos of several items created from money. Whoever created these was really talented, as the results were extraordinary. Most if not all of them had used the designs in the money in such a way as to be features of the item they created.

What would make a person think of using money for this purpose? Perhaps he or she had a long wait somewhere – at the airport, in a restaurant or doctor’s office, and just pulled out a bill and started playing with it. Seems like a good way to pass the time!
