I may need more cookies....

Washi tape.  I don't need any more, and I don't look for any more.  But it still has a way of finding me.  I am always seeking ways to store it.  I have shared some of my storage methods before.  Such as the postal sorter cabinet...
The wax paper boxes....
I have tried narrow plastic baskets....
These all fit in the plastic drawers where I keep most of my tape (except the cabinet above of course). Then I noticed a a clear plastic tray that came in a pack of cookies. It was perfect for holding three rows of tape, plus it has ridges in the bottom to keep tapes from getting too unruly.

I do like having my tapes where I can see what's there, plus I like to be able to grab a roll without too much trouble.  That's why systems with a dowel rod don't work for me.  I don't like to move several rolls of other tape to get to the one I want to use.

But having said that, there are tons of ways people store their tapes.  For some varied ideas, go here and have a look.  If I had room, I think I'd like the K-cup dispenser with its spiral tower holding rolls of tape.  So much fun visually. 

I may need more cookies though.  You know, for the tray....
