I like to set my test tubes upside down to dry. This is what I came up with!!!

I used two rings from filter socks, plastic canvas and hot glue!

Cut two circles out of canvas one to fit inside and one to fit on top!

Glue the inside canvas to bottom ring then glue the two rings together!

Cut holes to fit your test tubes, then glue on top. I have API & Hannah right now, so I have different size holes!

I also place the dropper in to dry. I'm going to make a change to it as soon as I can get to the store to buy more plastic canvas, the lids have a tendency to fall into the holes. I'm going to make a separate area for them with a divider from the tubes to eliminate this problem!
