Nice and cozy.

Ever notice how we tend to get fancy with things we enjoy? I’m thinking about the people who get racks or cabinets for wine, or boxes and humidifiers for cigars, or flashy cases for cigarettes. It makes sense because it’s something they enjoy, so they put some care into it. If we do this for our alcohol and smokes, I say we should do it for our cannabis as well. One way is to personalize your weed container.

I have an old cigar box that once belonged to my uncle that I like to keep my weed paraphernalia in. It’s not very elegant or fancy looking, its actually pretty dirty and has weed crumbs mashed into the bottom, but this gives it a special quality and nostalgic factor.

Things change, people move on, but the box was always there. I know it’s just a box, but it’s also more than that. It’s my personalized weed container, and every time I open it I’m be reminded of my college days and some of the good times I had getting high with my friends.

If you don’t already have a special container to hold your stash, consider getting or making one (or check out the OXO POP storage containers that Alexander reviewed last month). Personalize your weed box with some stickers or writing or whatever. You don’t have to do it all at once either, let it acquire attributes over time and don’t be afraid to let it get a little beat up or dirty. Every new stain or dent is another memory to look back on later.
