First off, labeling is your best friend. You can either craft signs or use the in-game label feature to keep track of what's in each chest. My personal go-to is to categorize chests by item type – one for ores and bars, another for weapons and armor, potions in another, etc. It’s like having a virtual pantry; you wouldn’t mix your spices with your canned goods, would you?
A neat trick I found super helpful is dedicating an 'outgoing' chest near your crafting stations for items you frequently use but don't carry around. This way, you're not constantly searching through your inventory or main storage area for those one-off items necessary for crafting or quick tasks.
Color-coding your chests can be a game changer! Use different colored chests or place blocks or banners behind them to visually distinguish each category. For instance, put all your crafting materials in a chest with a workbench icon or background for easy identification. It not only looks great but makes finding things a breeze!
