Just ask to your girl to make one.

Thanks for all of the posts.

I just received a purse today that Paul Green was kind enought to send. I'll see if I can coax Firedice to do some of his artistry and add a couple of Chinese letters/words/symbols to it.

I like the international theme and I'm going to introduce the purse and CSB set as the coins I take when I go overseas. They're my traveling coins. I'll then introduce that sometimes they like to travel on their own. It's simple yet makes sense for the use of all of the props as well as for the magic.

Thanks again all.

I guess I am a bit late in posting this, but I purchased one of these purses at my local Marshall Fields. I just went up to a jewelery counter and asked if they had any small jewelery purses and the woman opened a drawer and brought out about 20 of them, in a variety of colors.

Try a double envelope. On one side, put the three coins necessary to start the routine. On the other side, the two regular coins. Open accordingly.

I'm late too, house.... My local Chinatown has tons of these for $1 each; I have a bunch of them, too. I guess I could add that when dealing with anything Chinese, you should remember that red is important because it is traditionally symbolic of fire, passion, honesty, power, love, benevolence, and everything to do with the heart. If you need more random knowledge about the Chinese culture, pick up a copy of the "Tong Sing" (translated directly: the Chinese Know-Everything Book).

Good luck with the routine!!
