Lucy Hargrave's Auspops are the answer to my souvenir seeking prayers. Normally souvenirs are tacky and poorly inspired, but not Auspops.

Auspops are essentially [ice molds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cocktail-ice-sets) of Australian celebrities. There's outlaw Ned Kelly, I assume Steve Irwin, and many more possibly. Regardless of who the famous faces are, Lucy Hargrave's Auspops are an awesome idea. I hope [souvenir shops](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bourdon-street-chippy) take notice and start rolling out more inventive gift ideas.

**Implications** - Lucy Hargraveâ€™s Auspops are a fantastic an absolutely hilarious concept. If you are looking to get a gift for a friend with a summer birthday, this is certainly something to consider.
