PVC tubing capped on one end and secured to the wall at an angle using metal pipe tape. Works best when you have exposed studs.
Those clear tackle boxes with the changable dividers.
Cigar tubes work for the smaller ones..
Friend uses a piece of peg board on an angle bracket on the shop's wall to hold them..

1 ziptie wrapped around all of the other ones of the same size... pull tighter as you use them up.
large (tall) prescription pill bottles work good for the small ones...

I also do the zip tie around the bundle. I store the bundles in a big ziplock bag and put the bag in the lower drawer of my toolbox. The issue I had making a storage device is that you never seem to always have the same kind or amount of zip ties. A big clear bag works best for me.
I use a large coffee can
Big plastic jar with no lid
What is a large coffee can? I have not seen one in ages.
I'm about to dump all the nuts, bolts, and what not out of my coffee cans and put them on consignment at an antique store

I currently have my bag of 100+ zip ties sitting in a plastic Folgers coffee jar,it has a snap lock lid,but most of the larger ties are too tall to let it be closed..the 2+ foot long ones go in a screwdriver rack on the garage wall..(I use it for a lot of other things,not screwdrivers )..
I like the pvc pipe idea. I'm doing good to at least have on size of zip ties in a fodgers jar.
man it sucks to be the same age as old people
I have a coffee can full of quarters I used to make calls at the phone booth with. When I didn't have a map book in the car and I got lost.
That reminds me of the after market bench seat cup holders with the slots for spare change for parking.
... I sense a lounge thread... Reminds me of (oh hell I'm old now)
Plastic adjustable fishing tackle box.
Works well for electrical connectors too
