Hidden Money in a Jar
Place a small recycled can or jar in a larger jar with a wide opening. Place the money inside the can and then fill the sides of the jar with candy. This is one of my favorite ways to give (and receive) money!
Money Origami
Add an artistic touch to your money gift by creating origami shapes out of bills. Fold them into intricate designs like butterflies, hearts, or flowers. This thoughtful presentation will show the effort you put into making the gift unique and memorable. Makes a great gift!

Design a personalized money envelope using their favorite colors, patterns, or even a memorable photograph. You can also write a heartfelt message on the envelope, expressing your feelings and good wishes.
