Instructions:
This dollar bill Christmas tree goes along great with a money gift or next to a gift card, or you can simply use it to adorn your Christmas table.
Step 1:
The first step is folding the dollar bill in half crosswise, ensuring a crisp edge, then gently unfolding it.
Step 2:
Fold both left corners diagonally, creating creases, and then unfold them to retain the marked lines.
Step 3:
Next, fold the top and bottom edges inward to meet the creases from the previous step, forming a triangular shape. Flip the figure over for the next fold.
Step 4:
Bring the top and bottom edges down to the midline and rotate the bill, positioning the triangle pointing downward.
Step 5:
Fold both top corners diagonally, then unfold them to create additional creases. Repeat the earlier steps to form another triangle at the top edge of the bill.
Step 6:
Now, raise both side edges up to the midline, tucking them under the top layer of the newly created triangle. Fold the lower triangle upward.
Step 7:
Carefully tuck the lower triangle under the upper one, ensuring it remains securely in place.
