    I keep mine in a cigar box. You do not want them to be exposed to sun light. Sun light will break down the compounds in the essential oils.

      Thanks. I know that. With at least 50 oils and multiple's of some, I need something bigger.

    You can get a plastic shelf for spices that has 2-4 steps, then store it in the pantry or craft closet. 😇

    I suggest a wooden box with a wood lid, especially made for essential oils. The box has spaces for the bottles, purchase the essential oil printed labels with all the names of essentials on them, stick the labels on top of each oil bottle for easy reading. Open the box, see your essential oil, take out and use..fast and easy. If you want an display case that is all glass, find a business in your area that specializes in display cases, you will be amazed what is available. Also look for antique display cases in collectible and antique stores. Just remember light does break down the essential. You can still sue a display case with glass, just do not place in direct sunlight. I use a wood box and also a sewing

Enjoy your oils, my oily friend! (I apologize, if the appears twice).
