How do you manage/keep your keyboard items? (lemy.lol)

Hello! I'm new in the mechanical keyboard universe. I've bought some switches for my (very first) mechanical keyboard, and I have some keycap pullers. I also plan to buy a pencil to easily clean my keyboard.

For storing such tools and items, I plan to buy some ziploc bags and segregate the switches, pencil and keycap pullers, and store them all inside a plastic container.

I'm wondering... How do you guys keep all these mechanical keyboard-related items? I'll be happy to read new ideas.

Keycaps that came in boxes are labeled and stored on a shelf. Loose caps and switches in bags are sorted into 6.2qt. storage bins with colored lids and I have a note in my notes app with a master list of profiles (eg "Teal lid - DSS Shale, DCS Input" "Yellow lid - Gateron Pink Linear, Tecsee Carrot Linear" etc) because I was having trouble keeping track of everything.
