My sister was kind enough to organize my tying materials..both those in the "tying room" and in my storage shed. She used those plastic Rubbermaid boxes which will fit 3 to a shelf ( though you have to turn one of the three boxes upside down to fit) in the Sauder cabinets that you can get for very little money at your favorite *mart stores.  Each item is labeled..ie, Marabou, green,yellow, blue, etc. Hooks are distributed by wets, drys, circles and odds. My responsibility is to put everything back at the end of a tying session. This has worked very well for me. The necks and saddles go in the drawers of a dresser which keeps them flat. Spools of thread and tinsels are in boxes as well, each labeled with the colors that you would find. Flash material (Krystal flash) and Angel hair are in another bin.   Well..you get the idea. I've lived with this for over a year now and the only flaw is when I fail to put something back. The ability to close the drawers and cabinet drawers is a plus as the light doesn't weaken or fade the materials.  Nothing is placed in the room that hasn't been debugged/frozen, microwaved, before storing.  Sure makes tying much simpler.
