We will use 2 one-dollar bills for this dollar bill ninja star.
STEP 1: Fold it lengthwise from bottom to top
STEP 2: Fold it in half again the other way
We are making this fold to crease it, and then we will open it back up again.
STEP 3: Fold the right half up against the crease
Do the same thing with the other side, then flip it over.
STEP 4: Fold from the top left corner down against the middle edge of the bill
Repeat the same step, so both sides look the same.
STEP 5: Fold the excess flap over to crease, and then unfold it
STEP 6: Then fold the corner edge against the top of the bill
STEP 7: Unfold the point completely while leaving the edge you just folded
Then fold down over the previous fold.
STEP 8: Refold the point with the excess paper now underneath
Then fold the other side of the star the same way as steps 6-9.
STEP 9: Repeat steps 1-9 to fold the second dollar bill the same way
STEP 10: Lay the bills on top of each other and start folding in the tips
You fold the tip over and insert it into the pocket fold of the previous tip.
Repeat the same process, inserting the tip into the pocket or sleeve of the last tip.
STEP 11: Fold the 4th point over the 1st and then into the sleeve
This last fold secures all the points of the star and folds everything tight inside.
Now you have a sweet dollar bill origami star you can throw or just hand nicely to a friend as a fun gift!
