Casino Wallet

Casino Wallet
This is a Trifold Wallet made out of Playing cards. It has a change pocket and two credit card pockets. Its sleek design helps it fit into pockets easily.This design is easily modified for your needs. I made this one as a wallet for carrying high money bills with low quantity (10 twenty dollar bills instead of 100 one dollar bills) Expect to spend 15-20 minutes on this rewarding project.

 I've done this for years now!  People love it wherever I go :)  It's really flat and is hardly noticed in your pocket.

The problem with the card wallet which you solved is the front half pockets, nice!

When I made them I had the good fortune of having access to a nice laminator where I used to work, so I would place 6 cards per 'sheet' of laminate 3 facing up, 3 down, and with spaces for folding.  Trim them down, tape up the sides to your desired liking.  Little more durable that way!

Theres no since in photoshoping out the number since its a Simon mall gift card which is probably empty.

this is very cool. my son has gotten several wallets as gifts, but doesn't like them - thinks they're too thick. this may be his perfect stocking stuffer for Christmas. Thanks!

i made one of these before i saw this but there are a couple of things that i did differently that i think made mine better A. no change or credit card slots just put your change in your pocket and put the credit cards in with the bills they hold better and a similar wallet is always better. b. leave spaces in between the cards they fold better and seeing the money through looks cool and C. rather then folding it to break it in great techniques are swimming with it in your pocket a few times or put it through the wash once or twice i did bout and the wallet feels great.

it softens the whole thing not only the folds

Am I really the first one to catch this quote?
"I made this one as a wallet for carrying high money bills with low quantity (10 twenty dollar bills instead of 100 one dollar bills)"
100 one dollar bills= 100$
10 twenty dollar bills= 200$

...?
