What do you do with your Cigar bands?

[misterbulgarin]

I keep 95% of my bands , and stick them on my PC case in order of awesomeness, Im running out of space , and now that ill be ordering 200% more cigars, that space will soon run out.

What do you do with your bands? I was thinking of getting a large picture frame and sticking them on the wood, to make it more presentable. Kind of a work of art in itself.

Any other creative ways to display cigars bands?

Keep

I keep most of mine, early days I used to write a wee note on the back of them in very small writing on how the Cigar was and when smoked, dont do that so often now.
Was always going to get a friend of mine who is very Arty, to do a Collage with them, something Cigar related

I keep mine in a couple of glass vases...looks pretty nifty I think. One with only EL * Cohiba bands and the other with everything else

Funny You Should Ask.

Actually, but don't tell anybody this...

...I carefully remove the bands and put them on cheap stogies that I sell to mexican vendors. Perhaps you seen some of my work? My trademark is the Glass-Top Box!

I'm just pulling your leg, mate.

I save many of my bands and toss them in a vase that sits on my humidor. Not sure why I do this, but it's fun to quickly see the number a varities of puros enjoyed over the years.


Names TJ, TJCoro, and as me pappy always said. "If it comes with a glass top, leave the shop!"

I saw your big vase when you posted the pics of your humi a while back, TJ.

I keep all my old bands and tubes and shove them in a transparent dog-chew plastic jar in my cigar shack. It's filling up!

I smile at that jar a lot and feel very manly about my smoke triumphs.

[TJCoro]

Well put!

Yeah....what the UK Rapper said!

[TJCoro]

Say what you mean, mate!

So??? What's your point, big guy??? Trying to say I'm OVEREXPOSED???

Names TJ, TJCoro, and Iz posts 'em as Iz seez 'em!

[Robusto]

No. It's just good to collect pots.

[Big Al]

I throw them away.

[cohibaIV]

Bin them along with the nub...

Currently have mine in the bottom drawer of the 'open side' of my double humi, but love the idea of a vase to keep 'em in. Will have to purchase me one. Or maybe a cigar jar of some sort - never see them on ebay though.

The H Upmann jars come up now and again Dean but can go for over ?50 depending on condition. I saw a Punch jar for the first time the other day...nice!!

The Padrons come with two bands, one for the serial number, and I glue the serial number band to the bottom of the box they cam in. The other band goes into a bottle. I took the idea from somewhere one here, though I can't remember who deserves the credit. I put the red labels into a Jack Daniel's Single Barrel bottle, all gold labels go into an empty bottle of Macallan, blue and white labels go into an empty bottle of Crown Royal, and Black labels go into a different bottle of Crown Royal. I haven't figured out what to do with the rest.
