Storing and organizing your DIY supplies?

WOW…If I had the space…but I don’t. I’m thrilled for you. Hopefully I will find some storage solution that works for my small living space. And I’ll need it. I just keep ordering more flavors.

The folks here have been a BAD influence on me !! Just kidding, of course. I am having a blast and should be set for flavors, base and gear for a couple of years. Even knowing that, I will probably still order more stuff in the next few weeks. Some of my friends say I am a bit obsessive. :grin:

Clove oil and water works well with roaches and I believe ants. Probably others as well. Just a few drops per gallon will do the trick. I overdo it and use a full dropper in a handheld sprayer. Kills the little bastards right off and not as toxic to humans and pets as the commercial stuff.

Thanks mate. Yeah, it’s a “pearler” as we say down here in the Land of Oz. The guy at work who made this up for me is gobsmacked that all the “family” here like it so much :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:. I think he just might have a nice little earner should he ever decide to go down that road. Cheers.

I have NO IDEA whatsoever :slight_smile:

I just googled bottle storage and clicked “Wanky Aromatherapy storage”, and voila :slight_smile:

I assume, being how those little bottles for essential oils are gen… yeah fucked if I know I’m just trying to finish this sentence with bullshit to make it sound like I have a clue what I’m talking about, honestly.

They are bottle size :smirk:

I thought that’s what you are using. Don’t you know what size your bottles are? :confused:

No I am not using it: that was just a rare example of my being helpful with suggestions.

My bottles, are bottle sized.

No, 30mL - whatever size that is: 30mL Chubby Gorilla bottles, 90% of my flavours are in.

So like, about 30mm :slight_smile:

Maybe 35mm …

I don’t know: what kinda freak actually KNOWS the diameter of their concentrate bottles? Like I got nothing better to DO than measure the roundness of whatever they ship my flavours in Babe gawd, yknow? :slight_smile:

They are bottle sized :slight_smile:

cylindrical shaped…

Here is the rack system that I use for the flavours that I “play” with.
My bulk stock is in a small storeroom.
Every flavour is numbered, and are arranged numerically.


Edit:- here is a photo of the metal channel that I used.

Nice looking J-channel you have there @Tworrs.

Thanks SD, it took me some time to find something that didn’t take up too much space, yet allowed me to find flavours quickly.
I found a short leftover piece of ceiling perimeter channel laying around after my house reno’s, tried it out, and as they say, Bob’s your uncle :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

And use half of a cupboard to store mixes and other larger items.
