Stationery in general organising Pens, pencils, coloured pens, colouring pencils, rubbers etc

How do people organise these things like pens, pencils, coloured pens, colouring pencils, rubbers, staplers

I'm a little stuck on how to organise mine as I have so many and the current way is getting a tad overwhelming for me

  • I sometimes chuck them in an old mug on my desk, or more usually I scrabble around madly looking under bits of paper and stuff. I don't really have enough stationary to need to organise it. Haberdashery on the other hand...as long as the cats cant get to it I'm happy, it dosen't matter how I try and store things like embroidery threads they will end up in a cats cradle, just like documents hide from me the moment I take my eyes off them and I have to ask the filing fairies for them back otherwise they will disapear forever
