stash organization!

Help! I need ideas!

This weekend my big project is to get my stash organized and inventoried! Im going to use Ravelry to inventory my yarn, but am still not sure how i want to store it - i'm thinking about getting some of the under the bed plastic containers - and putting it in those adn then stacking them in my craft room - i think that i will like the flat ones better the then tubs because ill be able to see everything i have and not have to dig...

anyone have any thoughts or suggestions??

TIA!

That's a great idea if you have the room for all those containers. I have my stash in the closet in a few of those hanging sweater holders. I thought of this idea over a year ago, and then I saw the same kinds of containers used as yarn holders (but, of course, they were now called some new fancy name involving yarn and they were much more expensive).

Although my yarn is now organized, it does have its down side: my husband can see exactly how much yarn I have and can now say (and does), "You don't need anymore yarn."

Good luck in your organizing venture!
