I reuse the small Amazon shipping boxes. Each box has a number and a general category. My phone has a database. When I put something away, I take a picture of the item, add it to the database, put it in a box, and record the box number.
Organized is a really big word to describe what essentially amounts to hiding shit out of my eyesight in some sort of organization I’ll forget the sense of in a matter of days, until I need it again and have to open all the bins to find everything again anyway. But like some other people here, I use hardware organizers for the small stuff like tools and brushes, and larger bins for things like my soldering gear, helping hands, etc.

I use the Ikea Skadis pegboard system and accessories.

Good idea! I was considering pegboards and was looking at Temu
