Noel,

    In a lot of cities you can get flat files/map files at reasonable
    prices from used office furniture stores or classified ads. For new
    flat files -- I like the DICKBLICK ones -- they are not cheap but
    the unfinished birch ones cost less than most -- (I never "finished"
    mine and they still look fine after some years.) (Medium 5-Drawer
    File/24" ~ 36" is in the low $400s. )
    (http://www.dickblick.com/zz512/20/) 

    Into these large flat drawers I put shallow aluminum and plastic
    containers from American Scientific surplus (http://www.sciplus.com)
    - I use the containers without their lids so I when I open the large
    flat drawers I can SEE all my gemstone beads organized by color. . I
    also use sets of plastic drawers from Container Store (or Target) for
    some items, but they are so much smaller and for me not as useful
    since I can't see as much at one time. 

    Hope to hear other's ideas for storage... I especially need ideas for
    storing finished items! 

Carolyn
