I use "Realy Useful Boxes"
They come in varying sizes and you can insert trays with dividers for hook boxes etc.
Really Useful Boxes - Craft Superstore
One supplier here.

Almost like looking at my own desk when looking at Shuks desk.
I love those IKEA drawers.

Don't know if ikea still have them, but I picked a miniature metal filing cabinet up for £20 from ikea at newcastle. Available in white or red, approx 2 and a half feet high by 1 foot width and about 18 inches deep. You can also get plastic compartment inserts for the drawers. If I find a pic I'll post it here,

Found it, I've got most of my stuff in these, very sturdy. Only drawbacks is you have to put it together yourself but its quite straight forward and I found it fun actually, but thats me. Cheaper if you can go to ikea if you have one nearby otherwise you'll have to pay delivery on top, but a well recommended purchase and it looks great. Can't seem to find the plastic drawer organisers that go in them, think they were about £1.50 each but I only use 3 drawers with them in.

Decided to go and get one of these tonight and must admit that they are really quite good. Loads of room in them.
Thanks for the link Wingman.
