Money bouquets are great for weddings, graduations, and other occasions when you
want to say “congratulations!“. Use a handful of dollar bills (or larger denominations)
to make an entire bouquet of money flowers, or just make a couple and mix them in
with a bouquet of real flowers.

The instructions on this page are based on

a neat dollar bill origami flower design by
djmicho
(http://bricologia.blogspot.com/2005/12/regalo-original-de-boda.html) . I think that
the original design was actually for Euros, which are shorter and wider than American
dollars. So, I’ve adapted the design to shorten the petals slightly and give the flower a
fuller shape. Try it and see how you like it :-)

(By the way, when you searched for money origami flowers, perhaps you really meant
money origami roses (http://www.homemade-gifts-made-easy.com/dollar-bill-
rose.html) .)

Wondering about the bills in the picture? I was in Australia recently visiting family. The
money there is wonderfully colourful so I thought I’d try making a flower with it!

Making Origami Money Flowers - Step by Step

Equipment
• dollar bill (or other denomination) x 3

• 5 inches of floral wire or craft wire

Folding Instructions

Step 1 : Pick one bill to start with. Fold in each side of the bill by about half an inch.
The more you fold in, the shorter the
petals of the flower will be. (Petals that are
too long look silly.)

Step 2 : Fold bill in half lengthwise, then

unfold.

Step 3 : Fold the corners in to meet the

centre line.
Step 4 : Fold the top and bottom edges to
the centre line.

Step 5 : Fold in half lengthwise.

Step 6 : Fold in half again.

 Step 7 : Fold the other two bills in the
same way, i.e. re-do steps 1 to 6. Then,
wire the three bills together like this. Just
loop the wire around all three, and twist
the wire at the bottom.

Step 8 : Spread the petals, and you’ve

finished! For a final touch, spray a little
perfume on your flower :-)

Money Origami Flower Bouquet

Once you’ve made your flowers, you can arrange them into a bouquet.

Here’s a beautiful bouquet sent in by Leslie, who says “I made these for a Sweet 16 party
for two girls. They were a smashing success. Thank you for sharing your ideas.” Thanks for
sending in your photo Leslie!

Wahooooo... They look beautiful! I put artificial stamens from the
$store in the centers and the money tree really looked classy! Thank
you for those easy directions.
