Marc sent me two wonderful foodie hampers for Christmas, one was a pretty cardboard one with a magnetic fastening which is now safely put away, housing all my Christmas lights. The other one was this rather lovely wicker one, which was just what I wanted ...........
Having just a lounge/diner to work in, it really doesn't take much to make it look like a bomb has hit it and if I start something and don't finish it before I go off on the nursery/school run I don't really like coming home (knackered) to the "mess", but putting everything back before I leave just creates more work and less time to actually craft, if you see what I mean. So more often than not I don't tend to craft on "work" days ....... but this is hamper is perfect. I simply put everything I was using away in it ........
...... and put it to the side of my work table for the next day. After I have finished a project I can then take everything back to my cupboards/drawers in one go to put back (usually at the weekend). Yes, I have used plastic boxes before, but they look too practical and workman like ..... this is decorative and doesn't rub up my sensibilities like a plastic box does ..... I know ....... I can be a bit strange at times!

It looks to me like Marc has given you the perfect solution to your problem. He's obviously listening very closely and taking notes about your likes and dislikes. What a great friend!
I have the exact same wicker basket which travels betwix the house and the summerhouse. Perfect. Hugs Mrs A.
