Acrylic Cotton Swab Holder with Bamboo Lid, 2.8 in

$19.99
Pack

Fits if: cotton swabs, cotton pads, cotton balls, floss picks, hair ties - anything small and loose that has been living in a bag or a drawer. The round opening is wide enough for a hand to reach in. It is a small jar: about two fingers wide, and roughly as tall as a phone

Not for: food. Not a shelf - nothing goes on top of the lid. Not for tall bottles or perfume, there is not enough height. The maker publishes no load rating for this jar, so we do not quote one

Size: 2.8 in across, 4.5 in tall (7 x 11.5 cm). Jar body on its own is 3.7 in (9.5 cm) and the bamboo lid sits on top of that. Packed, one jar ships at 2.8 x 2.8 x 4.5 in and 7.1 oz (200 g) - those are the maker's own shipping numbers

Load: holds cotton swabs, cotton pads, cotton balls, floss picks, or hair ties, through a round opening wide enough for a hand to reach in

The swabs live in a torn bag.

You know how it goes. The bag gets opened, the top tears, and from then on swabs are loose in a drawer with everything else. Cotton pads are worse. They go soft in the damp air next to the sink and nobody notices until they are needed.

This is a small jar for exactly that stuff. Clear acrylic, so you can see how much is left without opening it, with a thin bamboo lid that just sits on top.

What it actually is

It is 2.8 in across and 4.5 in tall (7 x 11.5 cm). The jar body is 3.7 in on its own and the lid adds the rest. It is a counter jar, not a big storage piece - roughly two fingers wide, about as tall as a phone.

The lid is a plain bamboo disc with a tiny peg sticking up so you can lift it with two fingers. It does not screw on and it does not seal like a food container. It just sits there and keeps dust and bathroom spray off whatever is inside, which is all a jar of swabs really needs.

What people put in it

Swabs first, obviously. Cotton pads in the second one. Some people use a pair - pads in one, swabs in the other, both on the counter where guests can find them. Others go with a single jar and put the floss picks in it.

It also works in a shared flat or a dorm, where a closed jar is a quieter hint than a note.

One honest note on material

The body is clear acrylic - the maker lists it as acrylic / PMMA. It is not glass, and it is not crystal. It looks clean and it does not shatter if it gets knocked off the counter, which is the point.

What you get: the jar and its bamboo lid, in the pack you pick. Cotton swabs and pads are not included.

Works, but read the height

I wanted to put travel size perfume in it and it's way too short for that. My fault for not checking. Once I switched to swabs it made sense. Just know it's a small counter jar, not a shelf or a big apothecary piece.

Second one for the camper

Liked the first one enough that I grabbed another for our camper bathroom. It's light so it doesn't tip, and nothing spills out even on bumpy drives. Keeps swabs from rolling around in a cabinet.

Matched my counter colors

I have a lot of bamboo and white in my bathroom so this blends right in. The acrylic is fully clear, not frosty, and the bamboo top is a light natural shade, not dark. Sits next to my soap dish like it was meant to be there.

Nice but lid has no grip

The little peg on the lid works to lift it, but it's small and my fingers slip sometimes. Besides that, it's a clean looking jar and the acrylic is thick, not flimsy like some I've seen. Good for the price.

Just enough for one person

I didn't want a giant jar taking over my small bathroom counter. This one is about phone height, holds a weeks worth of swabs for just me. Clear sides mean I know when to restock without lifting the lid.

Fine jar, bamboo shows wear

The jar itself is solid and the size is right for swabs. After about six weeks the bamboo lid has a couple of darker spots from water splashes near the sink. Still works fine, just doesn't stay looking new.

No more soggy pads

My cotton pads used to sit in an open dish near the sink and would go soft from the humidity. This jar keeps them dry. It's not airtight or anything but the lid sitting on top makes a real difference.

Hair ties out of the drawer

My girlfriend's hair ties were everywhere, drawer, counter, floor. Dropped this jar on the counter and now they all live in one place. The bamboo lid keeps them from getting dusty which I didn't even think about before.

Good, but not for pads

Bought it thinking my round cotton pads would fit stacked. They do, but only about eight of them before it's full. Works fine for swabs though, and the acrylic hasn't scratched even with daily use.

Floss picks fit too

I use it for floss picks, not swabs. The opening is wide enough that the picks don't get jammed up and I can grab one without digging. Acrylic wipes clean with just a damp cloth, no cloudiness after a month.

Guest bathroom upgrade

Put this on the guest bath counter with cotton balls in it. Guests actually use them now instead of digging through a basket. The round opening is wide enough that you're not fighting to get stuff out.

Smaller than I pictured

It's a nice little jar and the acrylic is thick enough, but I underestimated how small two fingers wide really is. Holds maybe a third of a normal swab box. If you go through a lot of swabs you'll be refilling it constantly.

Measured right this time

I actually checked the dimensions before ordering, 2.8 inches across and 4.5 tall. It's exactly that. Fits between my soap dispenser and the wall without crowding anything. Swabs go in easy, my hand reaches in fine.

Cute but lid is loose

Looks great on my vanity and the size is perfect for q-tips. Only thing is the lid just rests on top, no seal at all, so if you bump it the top slides off. Not a dealbreaker for swabs but worth knowing.

Bought two, one for pads

Got the two jar option since I wanted pads separated from swabs. The clear acrylic looks clean on the counter and the bamboo tops match my other bathroom stuff. Each one holds a decent amount without taking up much space.

Finally off the torn bag

I had swabs living in a ripped plastic bag in my vanity drawer for two years. This little jar sits right next to the sink and I can see exactly when I'm running low. The bamboo lid is thin and light but does the job keeping dust off.
