    Somewhere between here and there
    The nail polish cases were a godsend for me. I have four of those and two stack on cases. I also have a few in small boxes but the boxes have the contents labeled on them. I’ve been trying to avoid buying another polish case but might have to.

    I’m thinking about getting those. Will they hold 30 ml bottles? I’ve heard both yes and no. I’m mulling it all over. When I go to the thrift store I always look for a cabinet. Nothing yet. My flavor stash has grown quickly. I’m going to spend some time on my vaping gear and DIY this weekend to figure all this out. I’m trying not to clutter my upstairs with stuff as I like it very simple and uncluttered.

    Some ideas for holding flavor bottles (keep in mind you can also make your own so these are just for visual reference)
    Vertical storage:
    https://www.amazon.com/ESYLIFE-Mount-Organizer-Kitchen-Storage/dp/B0752BLDGC
    Horizontal storage:
    60 Jar Spice Rack
    You could easily make your own versions from wood, plastic or even cardboard (especially if you have a hole cutter and a drill)
    The second example you can easily use letters and numbers to find each one (like Bingo)... looking for bavarian cream... it C-7 and write or have a text file for reference.

    The ones I have don’t fit the 30ml bottles well but there is a larger slot on each side where you can fit a couple. I usually transfer some of a 30 ml bottle into a 10 to fit in the cases and keep the larger bottles in a stack on case.

    Yeah, bergamot is a citrus flavor. The fruit is a cross between lemon and bitter orange.

    I was puzzled by this, as I grow Bergamot, and it has no fruit. Apparently, there is bergamot the plant (monarda or bee balm), and a bergamot orange, which is what is used to flavor the tea. Learned something new!

    I found that most 30ml bottles would fit in the slots just fine and then In the last year (or so) that changed. Some of the bottles no longer fit.obviously the bottles are somewhat taller.

    Six small bottles per drawer. Not bad for a 50 year old thingie. I have one more in the attic if/when I need it. Geez, I hope not! Need to make a black cover for the face.

    Here is my vape cabinet. I have DIY stuff on shelf 2, 3 and 4 although you can't see it. I have not transferred everything to it yet and I have a ton of dropins, mods and RTAs and RDAs, and coil making gear in my china cabinet and tv cabinet and kitchen island to put in here and more coming. Plus the DIY stuff on my kitchen island that I just got and more coming including another gallon of vg. By no means is this a finished product but I was in a hurry and I just put things in there right before the Christmas rush. Since I have 15 ml, mainly 30 ml, and a lot of 4 oz bottles of flavors, none of your storage solutions will work for me. Mom gave me an Amazon gift card for helping her at Christmas so I'm thinking of buying one more cabinet. One for gear and one for DIY. I will probably look for plastic bins or shoe boxes to organize my flavors and the bins will help if any decide to leak. Being in the basement will help the flavors as it stays cool down there. I'm still in mulling it over mode. Please don't laugh at me, I do enough of it for myself and I think I'm a little crazy. :lol: However, I stocked for life for the next 40 to 50 years. When it's all said and done, the amount of money I spent on stocking equals about a year's worth of smoking. But I have to get a handle on these flavors. It's not fun the way it is now.

    I'm a lightweight compared to others in the stocking thread believe it or not. What's funny to me is I threw away or gave away all my 2012-2015 gear and I had one mod and one tank and I only bought DIY and dropins for the last 5+ years. Look at me now. :ohmy:

    :thumbs: A pack a day ($10 each) came out to about $3600 a year! Besides my health, that was a big incentive to quit and vaping helped me do that.
