I was using plastic drawers and decorated cardboard boxes--and while I still have those tuck around the sewing room, I realized that most of my stuff was heaped in a corner in the sack it came home in and I never knew what I really had. So I bought a china cabinet at an auction--the lower part is solid doors that hide things like freezer paper, template plastic, some fusible, etc, and the upper part has nice glass doors that allow me to see what fabric I have for projects and still keep it dust free. It just seems so much nicer to work now. I do use plastic shelves for the scraps still without any problem.
