There was a thread from 2005 but the links to products didn't work. I'm sure somewhere in the mass pages of plain organizing there was a note here or there but I gave up after 4 pages of  non relevant info. So I'm posting again.

I know you can use a tackle box but I would like something else if possible. In this day and age they have to have created something better.  I have so many tips I've grown well beyond my wilton boxes and I need a solution for the 100s I've accumulated. I know I have an addiction. Also do you all organize by number or style?

Like all flower tips together all leaf tips together how effective is that?

Right now its just Madness. TIA

Maybe something like this?

There are lots of those plastic organizer boxes around.

I don't have that many tips.

I have a container for my tips similar to what shanter has a link to and I think they work great.  I organize them by number but I also have the Wilton Decorating Tips poster on the wall right above it (although I am now getting away from the Wilton tips).  Each drawer is labeled with the number range that is in the drawer.  I also have a few larger ones that I keep things like couplers, bags and nails in.  For me, it works pretty well.

AA plastic container with a bunch of little pull out drawers. I've seen them at craft stores. And then I stick sticky notes on the front with the numbers. And then I have them grouped by round, open star, closed star, etc etc. and in each group it's organized by number

Thanks shanter and kkmcmahan I'll settle for that if need be. It takes quite a bit of space for me but if I have to I'll go with that. Right now I'm digging through a ziplock bag and going through wilton cases..not working. I was so frustrated last time I needed a tip and my next cake will need more. I need a solution asap. I like that container better than the tackle box because I can label the outside to see what I have. Still haven't decided if I'm going to organize by number or design.

Any other ideas for storage please keep em coming.
 

I use one of those things with the little drawers that Shanter posted too, and have labeled the front of each with an indelible pen. And they are organised going up in numbers, with leaf tip types together, star tips in a row, round tips in a row, petal tips together, a draw for couplers etc.

What is nice about these containers is that you can store a lot of tips and the container can sit on a shelf or hang on a wall.  You might want to take a trip to the hardware store and just see all the different ones they have (look in the tool section, typically they are used to store nuts and bolts, etc.).  Have fun.

Thanks Shanter...you always find it!
 

Love these, with the inserts, but they're pretty pricy.
