This money origami shirt is a great example of how you can have fun with money but it doesn’t involve shopping.

With less than 10 folds, you can make someone happy with just a single dollar!
Instructions for Money Shirt
Step 1:
Fold the dollar bill in half lengthwise. Unfold.
|
Step 2:
Fold the dollar bill into quarters. |
Step 3:
Fold the top of the dollar bill back. Make the crease right at the border where the money is white.
|
Step 4:
Fold up the bottom-third of the dollar bill. |
Step 5:
Using the crease made in step 2, fold the left and right edges of the dollar bill inwards.
|
Step 6:
Fold back the top-edge of the dollar bill one more time. This will be the collar of the shirt. |
Step 7:
Fold the top corners of the dollar bill inwards at an angle (join the green dots). See next picture for guidance. |
Step 8:
Peel open the bottom of the dollar bill. Fold out only the top layer. Allow the crease line to extend from the bottom corners to the raw-edge of the dollar bill (see step 5 to locate edge). This will be the sleeve of the shirt.
|
Step 9:
Bring up the bottom of the dollar bill and tuck the bottom edge under the collar. Press down to establish crease. |
 Your money shirt is done! |
 Dollar bill shirt looks great if you start with the green side facing up too. The shirt on the left is made by placing the green-side of the dollar facing up. The shirt on the right is made by placing the black-side up. |
