It's time for your cigar labels to break out of that box.
Every cigar smoker has a pile, box, or a bag full of cigar labels. They are too beautiful to throw away. They remind you of the good times that you had, where you were when you smoked them, and the people you smoked them with. You’ve been saving your cigar bands for a rainy day for years. Well… it’s pouring.
If you’ve got a big stash of labels that you are looking to sell, send me an email. We will barter for money or product.
You send in your cigar labels and your favorite drink cup. We will do the rest.
Here’s how this works…
Step One
Gather your favorite cigar labels. A fully covered tumblr cup requires about 100 cigar labels. These labels must not be bent or creased- they must be flat and smooth. This is because of the process required to make a custom cup.
Step Two
Find a cup you love. It can be brand new, or the one you currently have. Yeti cups are encouraged as it’s the gold standard in insulated cups, but any insulated cup without a handle will do. Make sure your cup is clean and dry.
FAQs
Got questions about the process? We have answers for you.
What types of cups can i use?
Any straight double walled cup can be used for these. Obviously YETI is the gold standard. If you are going to spend this much on a cup, use a good cup. Double walled is important, as you don’t want your labels to experience water damage from moisture that develops on the outside of a single walled cup. Sizes do not matter, as long as you provide enough labels to cover the surface area.
how will i know i have enough cigar labels?
A trick to determine this is to wrap your cup with a piece of paper and trim it to size, then lay out your labels on the paper. See if they cover the entire surface of the paper, plus another 20%. If they do, you are good to go. If you have extras, that’s even better. Just be sure your labels are not bent or creased- a creased label is an unusable label.
how long do they take to make?
Each cup takes about 3 weeks to create, plus return shipping back to you, which is free in the continental United States. International orders are possible, but customers must pay shipping plus any extra taxes or duties.
what if i accidentally damage my cup?
These cups are customer favorites and can find themselves in some pretty tricky situations, like one cup that got a bad case of road rash when it fell off a motorcycle. Thankfully, we apply three coats of epoxy resin and we were able to sand, and repair the cup. The customer was thrilled! A refinishing of a cup is $40.
