Ink bottle storage

[Lugworm]

I currently keep my ink in a metal tea caddy in a drawer beside my bed.  But its not the ideal container.  

What I'd like is some sort of wooden container, perhaps with room for pen holders that I can keep on my desk.  Maybe something like the examples here.

 

How do you store your ink?  Any suggestions.

Actually that dark brown brown box in my photos might work.

  I have too many bottles to store on my desk. I use a wooden low cabinet with tambour sliding doors, and spice bottle/ clear acrylic display risers on the shelves. Anything that limits light exposure is good, the darker box is really pretty. Keep in mind that ink bottles tend to breed, so make sure you have enough room for future purchases. Here’s pictures of the cabinet and the ever changing storage system inside:

I have a about eight rattan covered fabric boxes that I bought a number of years ago at IKEA for the bottles.  Sadly, most of them are now pretty full and IKEA no longer seems to carry them -- and not every bottle is in a box -- a lot of them are strewn around where I sit in the living room, or on the top shelf of one of the shelving units in the bedroom .  (The IKEA boxes fit nicely on a the shelving units I bought at Pier One that flank a desk I bought in an antiques store in Indiana a few years ago -- a couple of boxes per shelf).  
The sample vial trays are sort of stacked up in a corrugated box bottom in the living room.  Eventually they're going to get transferred to one of the bottom, deeper drawers in the antique dental cabinet I bought as the world was going into COVID lockdown -- but I still have not gotten around to replacing the missing knobs on the drawers, or figured out how to refinish the drawers themselves (which are metal with wooden fronts).  The upper, 1" high drawers, will eventually be the pen storage, once I fix the drawers and get more of those flocked plastic pen holder sheet thingies....

I have two full/nearly full wooden soda crates that I picked up at Michael's Crafts. Hold up to 24 bottles, although some bottles don't quite fit if you leave all the dividers in.

 

For example, Iroshizuku box is a bit to large. Lamy fits tight, but does fit. Edelstein is between the two. With some bottles - such as KWZI, J Herbin there is room for vials around the side(s). Noodler's bottles are slightly too tall if you wanted to stack them. Inside dimensions of the entire crate are 12" x 18"
