Organizing Measuring Cups and Spoons

Do you have too many sets of measuring cups? I think I might. To sort it out, I found some medium size containers (I had lots of large yogurt cups) and labeled them by the different capacities of each cup, and then I broke up the sets into these containers. Some sets don't include cups like 2/3 or 1/8, so I might not need the whole set, but I do want to keep those with less usual measurements.

Right now I may still have too many, but it is easier to find the measurement I'm looking for than when they were stored by sets. And I did pare down my collection by donating a set to my children's play kitchen and another to their sandbox toys. All of the measuring spoons are stored in a utensil basket saved from a discarded dishwasher. It makes them easy to access and put away.
