Money Clip

I have a ton of old clip-on earrings that I've either inherited from my great-grandmother or collected from junk sales (I can't shake the desire to be prepared for playing dress-up with ten-year-olds at a moment's notice). I recently came up with a new way to use them in the everyday, though. If you were giving someone money or just like to keep money in a drawer (I like to stash a little in case I can't get to an ATM), you can use clip-on earrings as a money clip. Depending on the sturdiness of the earrings, you can only do a few bills at once.

Use Tie Clips. They are stronger, have a better grip. Most have serrated edges. File those down so you don't tear the cash.
