    Altoid candy boxes for storing all sorts of small things.  I have
    about 12 that are labeled on the edge and set into a wooden tray
    with their edge up. 

    I save just about any plastic food container.  They are great for
    holding multiple piece projects such as concho belts, link bracelets
    and measured amounts of silver ready to go into the melt furnace.  

    I agree with Elaine.  We should clear away all the stuff we do not
    uses. However I just know when I clear something away that I haven't
    used in 10 years it will be need the next day and I will not
    remember where it is. 

    Office supply stores supply all sorts of plastic cabinets from small
    to large.  They can provide ways for clearing up clutter. 

    The idea of using baggies or multiple pocket file folders for
    storing silver wire is a great idea. 

    I hang all sort of things on nails on the walls of my jewelers
    bench. 

    Where things go is not as important as replacing things to their
    storage spot when finished using them.   A very difficult task to
    say the least.
