Did you know souvenir sized Augusta cups are now available! These look really cool. I'm sure you've seen the redesigned cup on Wrightsboro Road, well now you can drink out of one. The artist who designed the new cup is taking pre-orders now. Whether you actually drink out of it or not, I think it would just be cool to have.

According to an article from The Augusta Chronicle on Yahoo, Addison Niday, the artist who designed the Augusta cup is taking pre-orders for them now through a partnership with Tire City Potters. I'm sure you've driven past the old Dart Container factory on Wrightsboro Road for years, and you've noticed the big cup.

Almost a month ago Addison Niday unveiled the new design for the cup, and people have been showing it a lot of love ever since. People have been showing the little cups a lot of love as well. Addison said he received almost 70 pre-orders in just the first day. One thing I think thats really cool is that Addison is hand painting these cups himself.

If you want one of these cups, you're better act fast. According to the article, once sold out, they won't be back for while. But they are sure to make a popular stocking stuffer as Niday and Tire City plan to have another batch ready on a first-come, first-serve basis during the holiday season.
