So Many Sharpies

I have been using the super-classy gallon-size ZipLock bag to hold a bunch of Sharpies. I know it isn't fancy, but it works. I wanted to get something to hold all those markers and make it easy to see what colors I had. Fishing around in that plastic bag wasn't conducive to creativity, so I ended up dumping them all out onto my desk and that wasn't much better. 
I did some poking around on Amazon until I found one that was well reviewed and would suit my needs. The Marbrasse Wooden Desk Organizer (affiliate link) was what I settled on. This comes in a flat box and requires some simple assembly. All you really need is a cross-tip screwdriver. An extra set of hands might make assembly easier, but is not required. One caveat: the name says wood, but this is really thin MDF (Medium-density fibreboard). The resemblance to wood is limited. That isn't a recommendation against it. 
After I put the markers from my plastic bag in it, I had room for these other packs I received for my birthday. 
Overall, I'm really pleased with this purchase. How do you stay organized?
