How to clean and organize Eclipse Package Explorer?

Could you give me some advice to organize Package Explorer?

I have many closed projects and sometimes I have a lot of close projects between the projects that I have to work on it.

There are some plugin or anything to organize projects in folders or something similar?

In the drop down menu of Package Explorer, you can select Filters and choose Closed Projects. This will automatically hide all the projects that are closed.
