Why Folding Money is a Great Gift Idea
A folded bill shows the recipient that you have taken the time and thought for the gift. Instead of simply putting the money in an envelope, you create a personal origami artwork. This makes your money gift unique and memorable.
Folded money bills are suitable for any occasion. For a wedding, a heart made of two bills, for a graduation a folded shirt, or for a birthday a butterfly - the designs can be perfectly tailored to the occasion. Especially at events where multiple guests give money, your folded money gift stands out positively.
The practical aspect: After the celebration, the recipient can simply unfold the money bill and use it normally. This way, you combine a creative gift idea with practical use. The memory of your original gift still remains.
Folding banknotes - gifts with added value
What do you need for folding banknotes
The great thing about folding banknotes: For the finished gift, you only need the banknote itself. It is best to choose new or well-preserved bills - they are easier to fold and look more beautiful in the end.
For practice, we recommend using play money from the stationery store or souvenir shop. These practice bills are the same size as real banknotes and are perfect for practicing folding techniques. This way you can try out each design without risk before folding real money.
Make sure your hands are clean and dry. This will keep the banknotes in good condition and they can be reused later without any problems. A bone folder can be helpful, but is not absolutely necessary. You can also gently trace the folding edges with your fingernail.
A little tip: Even if you start with play money - always have an extra banknote ready for the actual gift. If the first attempt doesn't turn out perfectly, you can try again right away.
