I use Vallejo and have quite a few eyedropper bottles full but the space I have to stow them in is quite limited. How do you stow and what do you use for paint stowage? I need pics for this kind of help.

Many of my paints are stored in such small plastic punnets:
Lots of those punnets are stored in a small cabinet we bought for low budget in a store.

I had a great paint rack made up for my desk, however now my paints are scattered between all over my desk and the garage lol. So long story short, wherever they fit

Here's mine. Just a simple three drawer organizer. Labels on top of the bottles are green for flat, pink for metallics, and orange for gloss colors.

I will have to come up with something that maybe spins in the fashion of a lazy susan . I already have stowed my stuff in a similar way you guys have shown but my biggest problem lies in the ability for quick location of a color and a way to not knock them over.

I made myself a rack, much like Martins...only much smaller.
I hung it on the wall, at arms reach, by the bench.
Simple 1"X4"..ripped in half, for the shelves and sides, and a piece of trim to create a "lip" to keep the paints from falling off.

I thank every one for their inputs. I like Owl's approach and all the others as well. Fermie's looks like the winner so far.
