Title says it all really, I am reorganizing all my accessories and up til now I've kept them in their gift cases. But it takes up a lot of space...

What do you do?

I have a shelf and some space on top of my cabinet that I keep all my stuff on. I tried the original box thing for a while but like you said, it takes up a lot of room.
I am not concerned about what you think as I can tell you don't do it often.

I used to be a people person, but then people ruined that for me.

I don't have a super lot of accessories myself at this point so I can just fit them in a cigar box on my dresser. Its not hard to find room for a lighter a couple cheap cutters and a punch and a small can of butane and the travel case I leave in my top dresser draw. Have you thought about getting a small file cabinet or one of those little plastic 3 draw boxes to keep the stuff in?
You should hurry up and acquire the cigar habit. It's one of the major happiness's. And so much more lasting than love, so much less costly in emotional wear and tear.

Maybe it's like becoming one with the cigar. You lose yourself in it; everything fades away: your worries, your problems, your thoughts. They fade into the smoke, and the cigar and you are at peace.

I keep alot of my "accessories" outside where I smoke. The only thing I take inside are my lighters because I have little pyros here at home and don't trust them.

I try to keep it pretty organized and return it to it's locations when I've used it. The wife appreciates that :-) If I get more stuff I think I am going to invest in a drawer thing like John posted.

I also use old cigar boxes for mine, one in the house and one out on the porch where I do most of my smoking.

Thanks for the tip on the cigar boxes, that got me thinking. And after digging through some old boxes I found a travel humidor that will hold all the stuff, neat! :-) :thumbsup:

I got accessories in the screened porch, the garage, in the junk basket on the counter, I got stuff all over the place.  I don't have to go searching for a cutter  or lighter.  I even buy 2 cans of butane, one for the screened porch and one for the garage

I keep accessories in a couple of spots around the house.  For my man cave I keep them in a cedar tray.  Your place looks very organized, Thomas.  :thumbsup:

I keep mine in a drawer in the house and have an oversized coffee mug that I keep a bunch of stuff in to carry outside with me each night to smoke.

I keep all my accessories in a smaller wooden cigar box that sits with my humidors.  I keep a cutter and lighter in a travel Xikar case for the car.

Definitely going to have to take that cigar box idea. I leave mine sitting out on my shelf in my closet. That box idea would make it a lot more organized.

I keep my stuff in a pouch. 2 torch lighters and a V-Cutter. I carry them when ever I am anticipating having a cigar.

I store all of mine in a old cigar box next to my humidor, but may be upgrading to a sorting Tupperware drawer like shown above here soon. Just cause its getting old having to dig around in it sometimes looking for my torch lighter.

I have a humidor that has two drawers on the bottom and I keep all that stuff in there.
