Make your own wallet with a used Tyvek mailer

When I was in high school, it was all the rage to make your own accessories using layer upon layer of duct tape. These days, folks have realized that using petroleum-based duct tape in that manner is not the best way to go. However, the do-it-yourself, creative streak cannot be denied, especially when it comes to those clever kids over at Instructables. They've devised a way of folding a single 8 1/2 by 11 sheet of paper (or a used Tyvek mailer) into a wallet, complete with cash pocket and room for up to 8 credit cards. I think it's a pretty cool way to reuse something and avoid needing to buy a new wallet.
