I played around with making my own. A few pieces of wood, drilled some holes, glue and varnish.... Big one was about $20 for all the juice and the small one was around 7-8. Took me about a day each. The smaller one I made two of and my wife uses it. 
Its maple with red wood in the middle. Stained the red wood a walnut.
This one is maple with the middle piece of maple stained walnut.

Nice setup new kid. That's what i envisioned when i started, but after seeing what i had to work with... well, there you have it.
Thanks! It was actually easy - and I am not a DIY person. I just drilled through the top piece with either standard bits or hole cutters. Then glued a piece below it and used some screws when I could. The thickness of the top board sets the depth for all the openings. Using another piece below it gave it the layered look.

Walmart again. They have all kinds of little sewing kits and related items that really work well and fishing tackle items as someone mentioned. I can't take a pic because I've let things slide. I need to go by Walmart for more stuff because I have added 67 flavors for DIY and a lot of juice I've made. As for devices I have them in a big pencil holder to keep them upright.
I really need to organized. Here is a team looking for a SS drip tip of mine.
I saw that episode. Didn't they find a rat vaping with it in the corner under a box?
At the moment, I'm using store-brand plastic food containers. Juices in one, syringes and filling stuff in another, readied cartos/cleartos and batteries in a third, DIY supplies in a fourth. At the moment, that's good enough but not exactly aesthetic.
The juices I'm steeping or don't like are in a little wooden treasure chest. Everything else is scattered all over my computer desk. Bottles, drip tips, batteries, bottle tops, cones, syringes... my boyfriend says he can't bare to look in my office since it's such a hideous mess LOL!! It really isn't that bad, he is just being a neat freak.
I'm thinking of a big makeup case... But not just now, I still have very few things...

Here's some measurements.
This is using spade bits to drill the holes (which leave kinda rough edges but I'm not building a keepsake and I'll sand it afterwards).
Cartos fit fine in 3/8th bit
Carto with flages will fit in a 1/2 hole without having to go upside down
Lavatube, zmax, 18650's, etc.. fit fine in a 1" hole
If you have a drill and don't have the bits, a 4 pack of 3/8 1/2 3/4 and 1" spade bits is under $10 from lowes/home depot.
I got a 3" by 24" by 1" piece of maple for like $5 at lowes. Cut it in half. Drilled like 20 holes in the top piece. I just eyeballed it cause it's not a keepsake, then clamped the two halves together and used the top half as a template to drill into the second piece. I just have to sand it, glue the two halves together and finish it.

Temp & Humidity controlled at 54F & 60%. What temp do you guys like to keep your e-juice cellars?

Not much as I am still pretty small in my amount of vaping supplies. Not for too long tho
As someone who actually DOES letter-press printing, I twitch a little any time i see someone re-purosing a type case into something other than for storing type. Those old wood type drawers are getting hard to find, and yes, there ARE people out there who still use lead type to print with... ;-)
Anyway, at least it's not full of little ceramic tchatchkies or brick-a-brack. At least it's being put to a GOOD use, and I really can't fault you for that--but it still makes me twitch a little...

Wowza, is that a wine cellar that you happen to store e-liquid in or an e-liquid cellar you happen to store wine in?
I guess since the wine still outnumbers the juice, for now it's still a wine cellar. But it IS dark, and cool so I figure it can be both. I'm thinking at 54F, I can leave it there significantly longer than I could in a drawer.
