Hey guys, so since I've started vaping I've started growing my juice collection. I know its probably not comparable to some of yours, but its getting there. I've established my "permanent" favorite juices, experimented with others... Y'Know, found the ones I know I'll never buy again.

However I bought my first vape organizer which was a jewlery/desk organizer and it worked great until I outgrew it which I knew would happen. Now I'm on the search for my first "juice only" organizer, because I'm all about organization. And I started thinking outside the box a little bit. I want to ditch all my different looking, different sized bottles. I like everything uniform and even. Heres my proposition:

As most of you know, or if you don't, searching for lipstick, essential oil, or spice organizers will lead to awesome options for storing juices. But I found spice organizers in which you would empty the spices into a space or jar or continer that the organizer utilizes to put them all in their right place... Since I use a syringe to draw out any juice anyway, I feel like I could do this with my juice. Which leads to the first example...

EX 1:

or

These are two examples of spinning jar holders. My idea would be to empty your juices into these and label them. Now all your juices are uniform, nicely labeled, and easily accessible.

EX 2:

This is what I REALLY WANT TO TRY. Its so uniform looking, so neat... You can mount it UNDER a counter even. It has a dispenser on the bottom for spices, so that probably wouldn't get used. But you could open up the top, stick in the syringe and det out the amount you want. As you can see, they're even detachable so you could take them on the go! The units stack as well. The reviews said that some of the compartments will leak, so I figured for liquid its a no go. However, one review said you just need to tighten a screw on the bottom of each compartment to stop this. If I did try this, I would probably try lining the insides with a silicone seal or something just to be sure. (There is also a cheaper, white version of this model).

I know most of you have countless numbers of juices, but I think If i had a few of these for my favorite juices over time and only keeping juices I'm experimenting with or temporarily trying in bottles I'd have less clutter. What do you guys think? I do not expect positive feedback about this but I really want to try eliminating the bottle.

Ooooh, another container/organization junkie! Nice to meet you brother!

How about something like this?

It should hold 30 ml bottles all nice and neat and could be stored in a cabinet (in the dark so as to keep the juice better, longer).

It's not as pretty as the others though.

I really don't think you should get rid of the bottles. Maybe change from plastic dropper bottles to amber glass bottles though. All nice and uniform 30ml amber glass bottles, maybe with droppers for convenience.

If you want one of the pretty spice racks, maybe find one that will hold the glass bottles, either 30 or 60 ml whichever fits best.

Container junky very much so! I did see this, but since it didnt have its own bottles I passed it up. However I started to think about how not having actual juice bottles would be bad, I'm going to research getting some empty juice bottles and something like this. These are the kinds of suggestions i Need! :D

When I get to the point of having to many juices I will so be doing something like this. Just have to finish finding out exactly which juices I like and don't like first. I really need to start making a list.

Beautiful. You must be content with your juices. Love the uniformity.

If thats even a word.
Yes i do and i have 3 of those stands lol and the one holding my PV's is a makeup brush holder


Which makeup organizer? Have a link? And, are those 30ml bottles that fit so neatly?

Yes 30 ml bottles here is the links. I would check out all the sections they have some great stuff. If there is one near you you have to go in.

I love The Container Store! There is one here in town. I've got to go!

I never would have imagined that 30ml glass bottles would fit in the same space as a lipstick. I guess I'll need to take a few things with me to try out for size while I'm there.

Thank you. Very informative. And fun!

Check this site out. There's bound to be something:

Essential Oils Carrying Cases, Portfolios, Storage Display Racks

The carousel one is good. But, the wooden racks (although very nice) are too expensive.

What caught my eye is the carrying cases.

I don't keep eliquids on display because I have grandchildren in the house. The carrying cases are a nice way to keep them all organized and to be able to stash them away quickly to keep from little hands.

The reason that I've taken my bottles out of clear, flat boxes where I can see all the flavors all clearly laid out before me to choose from is that the bottles end up turning so that I can't see the flavor on the front without having to turn them every time. Very irritating.

But, these carrying cases have straps to hold them facing front, plus the straps are positioned so that each label is clearly visible. Perfect!

This would be especially good for keeping all my DIY flavorings in!

Here is one from ebay that has graduated heights. They also have a smaller one.

Would your bottles fit inside any of those spice racks and still look good? Matching bottles in the rotating rack might look pretty trick.
