I want to get the humidifer beads eventually, but to save money to get this started I simply rubbed (generously) anti-bacterial alcohol gel inside a triple-shotglass & filled that with distilled water. Done! I put nearly all my cigars inside their cedar boxes (as your picture above), so they stay stabilized. And because the door hinges up, I don't lose all my humidification each time I open it!
