I have made a simple ring out of a US dollar. If you have a different currency you can do it with that. You can also do this with a piece of printer paper. I will make an instructable on how to do that soon.
This takes a minimum of about 2 minutes to do and only costs a dollar!
Things needed;
1 dollar or
a piece of printer paper cut to the dimensions of 15.6 cm by 6 cm

My answers to; Make to learn
What did you make?
I've made a ring out of a dollar bill. Anyone can use any bill even printer paper.

How did you make it?
I'e made this out a dollar bill. After seeing some of the similar instructables I decided to make a easier one. The first one iI saw was too hard to follow.

Where did you make it?
I made this 100% at home. This project connected to other parts of my life with the jewerly concept.

What did you learn?
I learned how to create oragami, without getting to stressed. If I was to do it again I would make extra neat folds and use a really crisp dollar bill. I honestly dd not have any surprises or challenges alng the way.
