We shop: Diana Eng fortune cookie coin-purses

These fortune cookie coin purses are definitely the cutest things to EVER come out of Project Runway. Designer Diana Eng has been a busy bee since she left the show, but out of all her creations we're obsessing over these. Each one is 4" X 4" X 2", individually numbered, and stamped with a fortune on the inside. The serial numbers correspond to where she found the leather. For example, numbers 001-99 were
"Preconsumer scraps from a high-end designer furniture company
After furniture patterns are cut out, this leather scrap is left over. These scraps were destined for the dumpster, but a friend at the company saved them for me."
Naturally (due to awesomeness), these are sold out, but in two days you can start placing requests for orders (at 65$) here!
