A system for organizing items is described. The items are stored in pouches that can be removably placed on a fastening surface. The system includes panels that can accept the pouches on one or more panel surfaces. The panels may have one or more support elements, such as holes and/or tabs that can be removably attached to the panel or to another panel. The panels may thus be attached to one another to form an arbitrary long surface for organizing items. The tabs may be folded back to the panels to form loops which can support the panels. The panels optionally also have holes for storing the panels in a binder.
