# Fortune Cookie Coin Purses Diana Eng Puts Money Instead of Fortunes in These Treats By Matt Ho | Published 2010-12-31 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/diana-eng1 References: [betterlivingthroughdesign](http://www.betterlivingthroughdesign.com/personal/fortune-cookie-coin-purse.html) & [dianaeng](http://www.dianaeng.com/shop/fortune-cookie-coin-purse/) Designer Diana Eng has designed a coin purse that's inspired by the [fortune cookies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/liquid-death-misfortune-cookies) you receive after a meal in a Chinese restaurant. This miniature coin purse replicates the fortune cookie in every way -- from its size and shape to its colour. It also comes with a dust bag and of course your own fortune because a fortune cookie isn't complete without one. Personally, I'm much happier opening a cookie filled with change than an actual fortune. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.6/10 - Popularity: 20% | Activity: 50% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Hip Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/hipfashion) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Miniature Coin Purses:** The trend of creating miniature coin purses inspired by unique objects presents opportunities for designers to create innovative and practical accessories. - **Replication of Everyday Objects:** Designers can explore the trend of replicating everyday objects, like fortune cookies, in unique and unexpected ways to create disruptive and eye-catching products. - **Alternative Fortune Cookie:** The trend of replacing traditional fortune cookies with alternative versions, like a coin purse, offers opportunities for businesses to create fun and memorable experiences for customers. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Fashion Accessories:** The fashion accessories industry can tap into the trend of miniature coin purses and create innovative designs that merge fashion with functionality. - **Design and Craft:** The design and craft industry can leverage the trend of replicating everyday objects to create disruptive and conversation-starting pieces that showcase creative talent. - **Food and Hospitality:** The food and hospitality industry can explore the trend of alternative fortune cookies to surprise and delight customers with unique and unexpected treats. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Food-Inspired Fashionable Purses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stan-onigiri-purse.md) - [Crumpled Chip Bag-Resembling Wallets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chip-bag-purse.md) - [Fortune Cookie-Inspired Cat Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/toys-with-organic-catnip.md) - [Fortune Cookie Flower Bouquets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fortune-cookie-flower-bouquet.md) - [Croissant-Shaped Clutch Bag Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/croissant-clutch.md) - [Juice Pouch Purses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pouch-purse.md) - [Butter Pastry-Resembling Leather Bags](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/limited-croissant-bag.md) - [Unexpectedly-Amusing Treats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/liquid-death-misfortune-cookies.md) - [AI-Created Fortune Cookies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fortune-message.md)
