Where do you store the rings (the screw band) for your canning jars after you've emptied the jar?

I keep the empty jars in the basement, but I've noticed that my rings seem to pick up rust after only one or two years' use.

So I am looking for ideas for storage to get more life out of the rings.

You shall eat the fruit of the labor of your hands - You shall be happy and it shall be well with you. -Psalm 128.2
