I am way over the slime craze. I can't even deal. I had several glue bottles taken last year (I'm sure to make slime), and I'm over it. I wanted an organizational system so I could--at a glance--see what was missing. I decided to paint my glue bottles to match my tables:

Painters tape applied at exactly the same spot on each bottle. |

But it's so easy to snap back into place, and it's a system I'm loving.
Super creative! Are you still using this method? How did you secure the tins to the shelves?
