Collecting Cigar Bands

Hey Guys!

I am going to start collecting cigar bands off of cigars that I smoke, and I was just wondering if y'all had any suggestions. IE: the medium to put them on, organization, etc.

Thanks,
Danny

I started the same thing several years ago. Now I have a huge box full and can't seem to quit saving them. Will someone please come up with something to do with all of these things? nsure:

I have a big bottle of Jack Daniels that I am going to put my bands in once I finish it off. It'll take me a long time to fill it with bands, but I think it will look cool once it is done

Same here... a big cigar box full of cigar bands. I went through it about a year ago to clear out the dupes (except for the special ones like the Opus). I thought about a cigar diary, but that sounded like work to me. Easier to just get another box.

I'm going to start making paper weights and keychains out of them. I need to find some acryllic though. I bought some and it was apparently old and it had already hardened in the container.

When I have a cigar for the first time, I pull the band and tape it to a 3 x 5 index card and make notes on my feeling about the stick as I smoke it....kinda like a personal mini-review. I keep the 3 x 5's in a small file box with dividers by brand (fuente-oliva-etc...) so that I can refer to them any time I want.

i just stick mine up to a bulletin board whenever i smoke a new stick, this lets me keep track of all the different sticks i've smoked and makes a cool looking board, someday i'll probably organize it by brand but so far its basically in the order i smoked them
