Origami is one of my other fascinations. A couple of years ago I made one of my brothers three of the little money "shirt" shown on this page. I found three little white jewelry boxes to be "shirt boxes", and cut and folded tiny pieces of tissue paper to fold the shirts in. My brother, who dislikes getting clothing as presents, spent all of Christmas showing various visiting relatives his "new shirts"! Always nice when a gift "works"!
