Try this origamiproject: a cool flower made out of three dollar notes.
Here’s how you make it.(PDF) A picture of the end product is on the bottom of the PDF. Here’s a little movie showing how it’s made.
that looks cool! Man, I wish I still had my mad skillz in origami - when I was kid, I had books on the stuff and made peacocks and monkeys and stuff…but no cool money flowers.
Oh! It’s three one-dollar notes. Cool!
I was thinking, “What is anyone doing making origami out of three-dollar notes, which are collectors’ items from the 1800s?”
I assumed that Canada had a 3 dollar note and I was just not aware of it.
I used to do that with the foil from a pack of cigarettes…somehow, I never thought of it as origami, just as “a bar trick.”
