Coping with a Large Collection of DVD's

A couple of years ago I stumbled on the idea of saving space with
a fairly large collection of blu-ray and DVD discs.
I decided to discard the outer plastic packaging and just pop the actual
discs in a small plastic pocket. And as you can see from my picture above,
100 dvd discs now takes the place of just twelve fully packaged discs.
Of course one can no longer see all the dvd's stacked up on a wall shelf
as I now keep them in a three draw locker. But I'm okay with that. And I can
still find any dvd that I want as they're all categorized.

Thinking that I thought it was something I invented, but then looking on the
pages of Pinterest I found others doing the very same thing.

is the kind of look that I've been trying to avoid, when your
main front room starts to look like a warehouse and storage
area.


And so this is where I keep all of my dvd and blu-ray discs, in this
three drawer locker (Below)  thereby saving a lot of wall space.
And the discs are all categorized into their own sections so that I 
know where to look for them, with sections titled......
Classic Movies, Westerns, Comedy Films, World and European
Movies, Sports Events, Science and History Documentaries,
Vintage British Culture Documentaries, Music, Opera and
Dance.
I can't imagine how many discs there might be. Perhaps over a
thousand.

large collection of various discs.
