DVD storage


Dvds.
It's an ongoing mess in this household and its been driving me insane for quite sometime.

During the madness
3 full bags of cases GONE!
 
I hate grabbing a case and open it expecting strawberry shortcake but inside is Dora. -Insert toddler fit here-

I've had this idea in the back of my mind for quite sometime but I didn't know if I could commit to getting rid of every single case we own.


But holy moly am I glad I went through with it. It gave us much more storage to use for better items and a better color coded effective way of storing them. I cut down files to size for the tabs for categories such as girls movies, adult movies, and blue ray etc.  And used Washi Tape to make it fun of course.
The polka dot bin & the colored DVD cases were purchased at Target.
 
Yes, Cameron thought I was insane for throwing all the cases away, and for going all 'color coded' on him.

  1. This is such a good idea! I can't believe I've never seen it before (probably says more about me than the world!). I'm so tempted to do this because my house bunnies love pulling all the DVDs off the shelf and chewing through the cases!

  2. I recently organized mine too (and threw away all of my cases--so liberating!). I did mine in a different way (see link below), but I am so happy with it!

  5. BEST IDEA EVER ! Terrance is ALWAYS stealing the dvd's and switching them. Did this take a long time??
