I hate socks.  They are stupid and like rabbits.  Why can't just one silly pair stay together?  I finally threw away a ton of them.  I'm not waiting for their partners anymore.  What I did with the rest of them (like that little turquoise reindeer one that my little girl just had to have)  was tack them to a sock board by my washer.  Just put some fabric around a cork board (that you probably already have) and pull out some of those tacks that the kids like to put in their walls and BABAM!  Happy Hunting!
