Funny Money Friday: Dollar Bill Origami

Money doesn't have to be boring! Each week, CreditBloggers.com takes a look at the lighter side of the personal finance world in a series called Funny Money Friday.

Congratulations to Robert Lemos, the winner of our credit haiku contest! Here is his winning poem:

Obtuse addendum
Hides change to default language
Rates soar, debt deepens

Thanks to everyone who participated in the contest! Robert, your free copy of the book Credit Scores, Credit Cards is on it's way!

DollarshirtContinuing in the Japanese theme, this week's Funny Money Friday is about origami. Particularly, origami with dollar bills. Impress your co-workers and become the life of the party with simple origami tricks explained by Clay Randall. Here are some things you can make with a dollar bill:

  • Boot - Give your money "legs!"
  • Ring - Wear it as a reminder to keep your spending under control.
  • Shirt - Use it to teach your kids that their clothes cost your money.
  • Bow Tie - Replace your boring ol' bow tie with a version that reflects your personal finance sensibility.
  • Gift box - Give a cash gift creatively!

Try out these designs today! If you send us a photo of your final results, we'll post it on the blog for everyone to see! Happy Friday!
