Creative ideas from students are wonderful! I made my strip holders glueing two lollypops and cutting it with regular scissors. With one lollypop I make one stand that looks like to fingers holding it. It is real inexpensive and it works. Also I can give it away with some samples since it is so cheap to make them. I have one at the studio with samples of essential oils that my daughter sells to her customers.

oh…I want one… yes indeedy… YOU try evaluating a dozen samples of the ‘same’ oil… without smearing one scent strip on the others… OH..and I followed the link to the bain Michel… inspired. the bottles that are really problematical to warm are the wee two or five ml sizes… we tend to sit one on a plugged in AromaStone… but one client recently mentioned sitting it on the ‘hot plate’ of her coffee maker.
Hi Marge:
Thanks for stopping by! I just got a load of these reels in, let me send you one. Send me your address privately. Yes, isn’t the rice warmer idea genius? I’ve used the tiny cup warmers for heating, the ones that are meant for only one cup, the heat is gentler than a big coffeemaker.

Eileen, I’d love to see a photo of this, and I’ll share it on this blog. 🙂

How ingenious!
Ditto on the mailing fees to Canada, Suzy, or I’d send you one. I know you’ll be able to score some easily on eBay.

Love this and would like to purchase some Anya.
Can you share?

Sorry, I can’t send to AU (high costs!), but you can find them easily on eBay for little money. Search for 35mm film developing reel.

Very resourceful indeed! Got to get me some 🙂
Brenda, let me send you one for your comment! They are sooooo great! The strips fit snugly, don’t flip flop.
Write me privately via the contact page.
Great idea! Plus, I personally love how the reels look. I took a photography class and took a few photos of them for the class.
Rae Lynn, let me send you one, too! Thanks for commenting and being a loyal blog reader 🙂
