Hi there,

I am new to origami, have just folded a couple of things with step-by-step instructions. Yesterday I came across some adorable money folds:

And thought of making one as a gift for my friend. Looking for a pattern of something easy-to-make, but cute like a cat or a flower. Thanks!

Haha, when you are folding a bill you have no right for mistake!

Aw! They look so cool! I need to learn these! Which kind of paper is it better to use for practicing?

Sleepy13, Here's a Lily tutorial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UnIYqlcWuDs. Hope you'll like it. I made it last year for my brother's bday.

I'd love to try making it, maybe using a smaller bill tho.

Sermisha, Thank you! The Lily looks awesome! I really hope one day I'll be able to make something like that. I found a nice origami peacock in suggested videos - I think I'll go for it, it looks realtively easy.

kathyNJ, I've come across some moneygami kits with special practice bills, but I think any paper will do as long as it is not a square sheet. You can start practicing with a sheet larger than a real bill if you're a beginner and then proceed to folding real-size ones.

That's a great gift idea! I'm in love with those tiny boxes! It looks like there is a pattern for making them right there on the album, but it looks super complicated to me.

Wow, moneygami kits! Do they sell real bills for folding?

Sleepy13, here is a step by step tutorial you might like - https://www.homemade-gifts-made-easy.com/origami-money-flowers.html. It is super easy, but looks very lovely. Keep in mind that you'll need a bit of craft wire for making it!
