As a lifelong dog owner, I often share my best tips for living with and training dogs. I worked in Higher Ed over 10 years before switching gears to pursue activities that I'm truly passionate about. I've worked at a vet, in a photo lab, and at a zoo -- to name a few. I enjoy the outdoors via bicycle, motorcycle, Jeep, or RV.

These are cute but not something that I would give as a gift. First of all, it is only one bill and really small so it would be easy to loose I would think. I did find a website that was a much better way to go for me because I wanted to have a fun way to give money as a gift. It is http://www.foldinmoney.com . I bought the Cake Kit and it was super easy to do and only took a few minutes. With these kits you use multiple bills so it is large enough that I was able to decorate it with some leftover scrapbooking material I had laying around. My sister was so thrilled with it that she took a picture of it before unfolding it to put in her wallet for spending later. She is always showing this picture to friends and they are all hoping they get one on their next birthday!

  Of course it is not something that you can give away as a gift. It is just pure fun. I like the cufflink design. I went to see how was made but I couldn’t reproduce it even if I am an origami enthusiast.
