A US Dollar might not be worth a whole heck of a lot anymore, but it still has value. As shown by these amazing creations lifted from an email mom just sent, sometimes it is better to save your dollars than to spend them.
Enjoy…

A cuddly teddy bear…

Would you say that this is a Pilgrim? Or a man in topcoat and cape?

I sure wish that the email would have included instructions; I really like this bat.

Gorilla? Or Buddha?

I wish I knew how to fold this dog…

A Cheshire Cat…

A pretty kitty…

I like this fraidy-cat, too.

It’s amazing how they make faces out of the Dollar’s printing?

I’m not sure what this one is, any ideas?

An alligator…

What kind of snake has ears? Or is it a Chinese Dragon?

A clever elephant…

An impish elf…

A whirling dervish…

A flamingo…

I think this one is a lady, but I am not sure about “her” upper half… It’s Jar-Jar Binks!

A kitten…another one I wish I had the instructions for!

Two owls…

A koala? A sugarbaby? Your guess is as good as mine.

A stingray…

A turkey…

And a cobra.
Here are some sites I found that have Dollar origami instructions…
I’m not sure who the original artist was or where these photos originally came from, but I did find a blog with many of these same creations and some others; perhaps they received the same email.
Save those Dollars!

I can’t believe I’m actually going to say this or that I’m admitting that I know this, but I think that “lady” you were wondering about may be Jar-Jar Binks from Star Wars.
I swear I’m not this nerdy. It’s just a curse that I notice stuff like this…

OMG! I think you are right! I totally see it now!
