Well, I finally did it

Congrats! Don't get rid of the tupperdor just yet

I know my new humidor will need to be seasoned, so I will do my best impersonation of a patient person and wait

It's a 65 count.

TreySC: Her comment was more about how I'm pretty serious about the hobby, so a wooden humidor would actually be something I'd appreciate owning.

Order the boveda seasoning wipes and 4 packs and an adjustable digital hygrometer while you wait

I really don't see any need to be past the tupperador stage. Don't get me wrong I do want a wooden humi one day but I'm gonna wait until I can afford something custom.

I wouldn't call it too small; I'd say it's a very nice "starter" humidor. Yes, you'll probably outgrow it in time; when you find yourself keeping it three-quarters (or more) full most of the time, consider getting a second humidor of the same size or larger. I currently use two desktop humidors, rated at 50 and 100 stick respectively. (They actually hold less, since I use Heartfelt Beads in cleaned-out gel-humidifier jars.)

Hang onto your tupperdor for temporary excesses (a very nice problem to have!), and perhaps for aging special sticks. Before my recent move I stocked up and put the overflow into several small tupperdors with Spanish cedar veneer sheets and Boveda packs, and packed them with clothing and household goods. This made opening the various packing boxes fun! I recommend putting the tupperdor out of sight in a cool, dark place, and checking on it about once a week. If it's out of sight, you won't be tempted to get into it every day or two during aging. Besides, now you have a great-looking wooden desktop humidor to put on display as it holds your daily smokes.
