What do you use to store unused pedals?

I always try to keep the original box for the pedal, and I have two big 6ft metal storage cabinets in the studio that store lots of accessory type stuff-pedals, cables, microphones, strings, computer stuff, etc. These cabinets can be locked, which is a little bit useful, although I admit I rarely lock them. Someone breaks into my studio if I’m out of town, they’re gonna have a real good heist. Smh
 
Unless they’re Iron Ether, Klons, or Bad Monkeys.
Or Mutrons or Bass Brassmasters or MXRs

Does anyone have any good storage cases or ideas for storing unused pedals and other small gear?
I use a cheap little bookshelf right next to my desk in my home studio. Got the idea from a studio I recorded in. I like it more than wall mounted shelves because I can easily move it I also have little bins in it organize small items for building boards. Velcro, cioks power cables, usb cables for stuff like my source audio pedals and my hx stomp. Helps me avoid a tangled ball of cables. Even still have a bin of rack screws even though I don’t currently own a rack.

1) the boxes the came in
2) the box of something thats the shape as the box it came in

usually I have enough pedals wired on boards I'm using that i have enough empty boxes for pedals that didn't come with boxes.
