I ran into those vases at a discount shop today, bought 2 of them, now I have to smoke a lot to fill those puppies up.

Very cool

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands
 

Lol perfect idea, its like our wine cork vase! But this will be infinitely more gooder ;)

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands
 

Very nice I've been saving my bands also maybe ill adopt your idea

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands
 

I throw mine in a Viaje Exclusivo "Pickle Jar". :tu

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands
 

I throw mine in the trash. :r

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands
 

yeah, but you're just mean!

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands
 

:r :r :r

Irrelevant! :D

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands
 

Been saving mine up to do the same thing, more of a fish bowl, but same idea!!!

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands
 

I should start two side-by-side:

-Cigar bands
-Wine corks

Take THAT, wifey :D

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands
 

I like that vase!
I have a glass boot we put our wine corks in. I put my bands in a plastic Peanut jar. Nothing fancy, but keeps them safe n sound!

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands
 

I've been putting mine in a vase for a while now, my roommates liked the look of it so much theyasked me to put it in the living room!

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands
 

Can we get an estimate on how many are in there now? How many you think it will take to fill up?

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands
 

Lol! Id say that, but wifey fills the wine corks one all by her lonesome!

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands
 

Same thing I do with mine. But you're going to need a larger vase.

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands
 

LOL... I have mine in a plastic grocery bag... Your's definitely has more class, but mine fits me as well!!!

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands
 

:tu

I wonder if my wife will go for that in the livingroom... :hm

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands
 

That's really cool. Mine are in a cigar bag, very boring.

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands
 

I am waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too lazy to count them.

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands
 

Sweet!!!:tu

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands
 

Pretty cool... but my wife would never go for it. :(

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands
 

just do it :tu

stearns

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands
 

Awesome lol... When I first started smoking, I would put the cigar bands in my wallet. Well that didn't last too long lol.

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands
 

Saving mine for a photo-mosaic. Still looking for a "prize winning" photo. Probably a self-portrait! :) You know. . . me smoking a fine cigar with my buds!

Photo-Mosaic:
Each cigar band will be a color pixel in a large format poster (4' x 6' size)! Anyone have the time to scan my 10-gallon fish tank full of bands? (12 years worth!!) Also need a program to map all the images into a color pixel layout.

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands
 

Just count 100 and weigh them! Then weigh the rest. . . simple estimating math.

:r

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands
 

different sizes bands, different weight in paper. That won't work :)

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands
 

I have a Planter's Peanut container full of bands it was 291.... So you can guess from there.

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands
 

Make a collage of them in a picture frame. It comes out very nice IMO.

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands
 

Ah! I was just thinking about what to do with my bands lately. This is a good idea,and I saw some really great ones at Target earlier... hmmm...

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands
 

Goodluck!

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands
 

Very cool idea.

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands
 

Nice...that will look sweet once that bad boy is filled. :tu I keep mine in an Oliva V box from the first box split I ever did...memories (tear).

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands
 

I throw all my old bands in an empty cigar box.

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands
 

Hmm, I have a spare Red Hook growler somewhere, I like this idea!

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands
 

I have all of mine tossed in my first ever box purchase - A Fuente Hemingway Classico :)

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands
 

I had the same Idea, so I saved all my bands in an Olivia Serie V box. Gonna put mine in laminate underneath a glass table!!!

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands

I posted the first picture on my dutch cigar forum and someone send me a box full of bands which almost filled the vase.

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands
 

Now you really need to count them! :r

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands
 

Yeah...that's kind of what I was thinking. :r:r

I like Bill's idea of the collage too...I may have to attempt that one. :tu

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands
 

Who said you need to put stinkin flowers in a vase. HA. Great ideas. I'm saving mine to make a collage on my trevel-dor.

Re: Finally found a good use for my cigar bands
 

Damn Ferdie that is sweet. I would have never thought to do that. :tu
