You asked and it's now here for you, Debbie!
I bought a lot of the clear tubs over the years, looking for sales. At least most are clear. I am in the process of labeling everything, even though they are see through.
A few months ago I decided to get super organized and go through each box and make everything find it's correct bin. I placed them all in one room with the tops open and one by one, sorted as I watched TV in the evenings.
It took me a few weeks to do this, on and off. I found 27 rolls of scotch tape! I am now nearly completely organized...I just need two more shelf units and I'll be there.
In this photo, the storage wasn't quite complete as you'll see a pile to the right. It is now though!
In my dream world, I would not share my studio space with an office unless it was 25 feet long and about 15 feet wide. I would have lots of open shelving for paints, brushes and things I most often use.
How has everyone else organized?
