How to Make a Turtle out of a Dollar Bill

Making a turtle out of dollar bills can be a fun way to add decoration to gifts, birthday cards, or swap with friends! Here’s how you can make one.

Steps

  1. Fold the first bill in half lengthwise and unfold.
  2. Fold the bill in each direction so the centers are together. Make sure that the ends are even.
  3. Fold each of the four corners down to the middle point.
  4. Fold the middle section up in quarter folds so a “V” shape comes out.
  5. With the “V,” flatten the ends a bit to give it the turtle’s head.
  6. Using a second bill, fold it in half lengthwise and unfold.
  7. Fold the edges into the middle, leaving the top layer untucked but pressed together.
  8. Flatten the ends of this section to create the turtle’s back and neck.
  9. You can use the extra two flaps from the dollar bill to make the turtle’s feet and tail.
  10. Use glue or double-sided tape to adhere the two pieces together and the turtle shape is complete.

Tips

  • Be creative with the details by using additional bills for the turtle’s eyes and mouth.
  • Tape the bottom end of the turtle so it can stand up.
  • Be careful not to damage or rip the bills while folding.
