Where do you store your yarn? - Cloth Diapers & Parenting Community

Now that I've finally gotten around to learning to knit my yarn stash has grown exponentially (I've been dying yarn for almost two years, but I only kept a couple of skeins around at a time until they were sent to be knit so I never really needed a place to store yarn).
Anyhow, where do you store your yarn? I want something pretty, but not too expensive.

Thanks.

I started with a rubbermaid tower with drawers. Then I added an under-the-bed type tote with them. I have since added 3 milk crates and that's just for wool

The rest is stashed around the house, a bunch in a footstool the cat uses to look out the window, some in a rack my MIL bought me, and still more in wire/crate stacking system. Dh says he's going to build me better storage eventually.
