How to fold money into a money roses- 1st variant
For this money gift flower, the banknotes are folded like this:
First, you put the bill across the table in front of you and fold the bill once from the lower edge to the upper edge of the bill. Then unfold it again and fold in all 4 corners. Then fold the bill up to the middle at the top and bottom and then fold it up again.
The folding of the banknote must now be repeated 3 times. Then wrap the folded banknotes in the middle with the craft wire. Now you can automatically make the origami flowers from the individual banknotes. The money is now unfolded in such a way that a money flower is created. This is how easy it is to fold money into a flower!
How to fold money into a flower – 2nd variant
The money flower folding goes like this:
To fold this money flower, you first lay the banknote vertically on the table. Then you start to fold over a small piece of the banknote on the lower side. Now just turn the bill over and fold it further, so that an accordion-like shape is created.
Repeat folding the bill with another bill. Then bend the two folded banknotes in the middle and wrap them with craft wire. Then glue the banknotes together at the 4 open spots with a small piece of adhesive tape.
Now the creative folding of banknotes is finished and pretty money rose bouquet has been created while doing handicrafts.
Attach money flowers to paper stalks
The folded banknotes are then attached to the skewers or paper stalks with the decorative wire. Only now does the money roses really come into its own.
Fill the vase with decorative sand
It is best to use the decorative sand in two different colors for the personalized wedding vase. Now the sand is poured alternately into the cash gift flower vase so that a beautiful pattern is created. This also makes personalization more effective. We used around 2 kg of sand in total for the vase.
In contrast to folding banknotes, this step is very quick, but you should still allow yourself enough time so that the pattern looks good, because here you only have one try.
Put money flowers in the vase
The folded banknotes or money flowers are now simply put into the sand – a creative money gift and a beautiful eye-catcher.
Now simply pack the vase with the banknotes or money gift flowers well and the creative money gift for the wedding or other occasions is ready.
