Don’t End Up On A Thrift Store Shelf!



I love to browse through my local thrift store www.goodwill.org to see what treasures I can discover at bargain prices. However, this weekend while looking through all the knick-knacks in aisle after aisle, it suddenly hit me that the majority of these items were probably given as gifts to someone. They ended up here most likely because they were taking up space or served no useful purpose. That is why giving Foldin’ Money cash gifts is soooo cool! The cash in the designs will be spent for something truly wanted or needed. No dusting or storage space required. Giving Foldin’ Money designs guarantees that your gifts don’t end up on thrift store shelves! www.foldinmoney.com

Close to Christmas

I’m a crafter, I love to make gifts which all my family knows, much to their chagrin. Every year I make at least one gift for one person, not all of them so well received. So the year I announced I made gifts for everyone, there was a palpable gasp in the air!



Little did they know I had been working on patterns for a company that would become known as Foldin’ Money. My favorite design is and was the Tree! So that year they all got $25 Trees all decorated up for the holidays! No one returned them or complained about them at all, all smiling faces! What a great feeling and I had fun to boot!

Election 2012

I don’t know about you, but during election years about this time, I get so turned off by all the political ads, good, bad or indifferent. I believe in this country and in voting as a very important right. I just wish it could all be handled differently with out all the money wasted smearing the candidates! Remember our men and women fought and died for your right to vote! Please get out there and exercise your right! If you’re not registered in Washington State go to www.myvote.wa.gov. I’m sure other states have websites similar to this.

Take Back America


There are two ways Americans have power in our country; one is by voting, which we should all do, the second way, as I see it, is to buy only products made in the USA. How you spend your dollars speaks almost as loud as your vote! Buying American made products would bring about a revolution that would bring jobs back and bolster the economy. It’s really simple to do, each time you buy something, anything, even at the dollar stores, make sure it’s made in America! Look at all the products you buy even in the grocery store. If it’s a foreign made product, find a similar product made here. It may cost a bit more, but if we all do this, it would send a powerful message. Americans sometimes feel they have no power, but what we all need to realize is we have the ultimate power and that is how and what we spend our hard earned money on!  Think local, think green, think made in the USA!
Foldin' Money is an American Company and our products are made entirely in the USA! www.foldinmoney.com

Summertime in Seattle is Fine!

Every city seems to have a special event during the summer and in Seattle its Seafair! Seafair always happens on the first weekend in August which this year was August 4th & 5th . Mother Nature must have received the memo too because she put on a great show too with temperatures from the high 80’s to the low 90’s! The Hydro races are always a big crowd pleaser during Seafair and the Oh Boy Oberto won again this year! These races are a blast to watch as the hydroplanes create giant rooster tails as they speed along the surface of the water! Not to be bested, the Blue Angels put on a spectacular show of their own. People from all over the Pacific NW and beyond come here just to see them perform their aerobatic death defying feats. For more information about Seafair in Seattle click this link http://www.seafair.com/ To find out more about the Blue Angels follow this link Blue Angels in Seattle!  www.foldinmoney.com
