You da real MVP. I know everyone has a story but we're all here for quick ideas and this sure ain't the only video we're watching. I really don't have time to do this. Think I'll keep em in cases tbh, but I do like the concept.
Thank you great tip, what I did in top of your idea. I typed, in an Excel document every titles associated with all of the alphabet letter all of the title movies or music associated with this particular letter. The document is on top of the rack so it's easy to find what's in the letter A or any other letter. Thanks again.
I'm thinking of getting rid of some of my DVD cases too. Only keep them for movies I really like, it saves sooo much space when you put them in sleeves
It does save so much space! I finally got rid of all of my cases except the ones that belong to our kids. I figured they might want them in cases when they move out and take their movies with them.
+Bored or Bananas We used to have ours separated by type, too. So far this way is working but if I need to, I could always make a larger divider to separate and keep the kids movies in their own section. We'll see how it goes. :) Thanks for watching!
Thanks for sharing. I am desperate to do this to my DVD collection. I've bought the DVD sleeves and washi tape, already own a laminator - just need to find the right container. I have my heart set on copper/bronze wire baskets but can't find them anywhere in the UK. I don't think I'll ever be happy.
NOOO ! don't throw your cases, your collection is worthless to sell on, use www.slim-disc.com to save space, see the demo : th-cam.com/video/PyIIKIQ4zLk/w-d-xo.html
+organizedMOM Great, I'm glad it was helpful! It really is a great way to organize DVD's in a very small amount of space. Let me know how it works for you if you end up doing it. :)
What are the dimensions of the baskets? I’ve been looking for some and cannot find the right size. We have over 500 DVD’s after my husband and I combined our collections, got rid of what we don’t use and what we had duplicates of.
Yes, that works and I thought about doing that but my issue with that is, whenever you get a new movie and the discs are in alphabetical order, you'd have to move all of them to add that new disc.
Awesome idea- I already have mine organized but they are in the taller sleeves that go into an envelope which drives me nuts.... I think I'm gonna give your idea a try :)
That turned out really great! We just use a big book for the DVDs and it works for now, but I like how much extra room you have with this system. #ytmm
+Our Family Home Life (Meals, Hauls, DIY) I thought about the DVD book but since I alphabetize the movies, I didn't want to have to rearrange them every time we got a new movie. I do use a book for my home movie discs though and it works well for those. Thanks for watching!
I'm looking to thin out the bulk of my CD/DVD collection. (I was going to give them to Salvation Army) So I got to thinking getting rid of the jewel cases would possibly solve the problem. If I did something like this, is there room in those plastic sleeves to include the CD/DVD artwork sleeves along with the discs in those plastic sleeve you're using? Thanks
This is a brilliant Idea! I have been trying to figure a system out. is it possible to maybe buy the dividers from you? I don't have card stock or a laminator and I don't see spending the money on either for just 1 project.
Why not just take out the DVD from its case to maximize space?? It's crazy I didn't think about that! I was fixing to buy this huge box to put them in since I have so many, but this idea is simple and genius.
I think all of us fail to think of the most obvious solutions sometimes. lol I'm glad the video was helpful and you found it before you went out and got that huge box! haha
That's a great idea but I like the original cases on mine. Just be careful what DVDs cases you you get rid of especially Disney because some could be worth a lot depending on the version and if it's back in the DIsney vault :)
I had the idea to do that with my CDs years ago and put them in paper sleeves with the front cover included, and now I got tired of that idea and hopefully one day will buy all new cases. I like to look at the front and back covers when I am listening to music. The experience of listening to music then becomes more of a ritual.
Back then, buying a DVD was a special purchase. It came with a special case. They were $25 or more (in 1997 money, which is like spending $50 now.) It was something you owned 10-20 of maybe. Maybe some of your favorite movies. Nobody expected them to be $1 each on Ebay, and people to own hundreds or thousands of them.
The pop center can decrease the shelf life. The scratches mainly affect the plastic, not the paint where the data is. This can be a nicer approach for media preservation that the push and bend disc option. Never mind that many sets sold at Walmart come broken.
I would have subscribed... BUT your intro is TOO LONG WINDED... OMG. You exhausted me after 3minutes i was done. Gosh...!! Why talk so much to get to the point.
You are bloody GORGEOUS, so yeah, who cares ifn your discs get all scratched and messed up huh, at the end, you'll still be a hottie 😁😁😁 but yea, I'd never destroy my DVDs like that
Oh wow ... You're the second person to tell me that y'all haven't had your discs scratched from them sleeves ... That's cool 😁😁😁 yeah, anytime ... And happy New year 🙈🙉🙊
Girl just transfer them and make them digital to your cloud or drive. You've probably done this by now. Less clutter will be getting rid of them. Great video for more years back though.
3:50 is when the point of the video is reached !!!!!!
I know. Right? Good grief! That woman is a rambler!
CardiffCrafter Jesus Christ! .. thank you!!!
Thank gawd i werent the only 1 who thought that!
CardiffCrafter Thankyou!!!!!
I was hoping someone had done this! 🤣
You da real MVP. I know everyone has a story but we're all here for quick ideas and this sure ain't the only video we're watching. I really don't have time to do this. Think I'll keep em in cases tbh, but I do like the concept.
Thin jewel cases work well as dividers. They're much more rigid. Neat system.

@@aplacetonest this other guy keeps his dvd inserts and puts them in the sleeve with the dvd
We organized our DVDs similarly. I have mine separated by type. :) great video!

I'm from the UK and have ocd so this is so perfect thanks x
You're very welcome! :)
Thanks for sharing.

Could you spray paint some that might be a different color and make them copper?
NOOO ! don't throw your cases, your collection is worthless to sell on, use www.slim-disc.com to save space, see the demo : th-cam.com/video/PyIIKIQ4zLk/w-d-xo.html
I'm still looking for the right container here in the uk too.
I really love this! Great job! You e got me thinking about doing something now with our collection.
+organizedMOM Great, I'm glad it was helpful! It really is a great way to organize DVD's in a very small amount of space. Let me know how it works for you if you end up doing it. :)
I am getting DVD sleeves and 3 storage bins
What are the dimensions of the baskets? I’ve been looking for some and cannot find the right size. We have over 500 DVD’s after my husband and I combined our collections, got rid of what we don’t use and what we had duplicates of.
I put mine in a 400 disc binder; Woukd really well!
Yes, that works and I thought about doing that but my issue with that is, whenever you get a new movie and the discs are in alphabetical order, you'd have to move all of them to add that new disc.
Great idea! We definitely have this problem lol, can't wait to get organized! I look forward to all your videos!! :)
+Kari Quick Thanks so much! Let me know how this system works for you if you end up trying it. :)
+aplacetonest I sure will!
I love this idea, thank you so much for sharing. Lots of hugs Ninna
+Ninna Lucas Thanks so much! :)
Awesome idea- I already have mine organized but they are in the taller sleeves that go into an envelope which drives me nuts.... I think I'm gonna give your idea a try :)
+Kristy Kaiser Yes, I thought about the envelopes but those flaps would drive me nuts! :) I hope this way works better for you. :)
That turned out really great! We just use a big book for the DVDs and it works for now, but I like how much extra room you have with this system. #ytmm

I think it might fit CD artwork but a DVD cover would have to be cut down to fit and might be a bit bulky.
@@aplacetonest Great! Thanks for the reply back:). So liberating going through the process of minimizing:)
You need to shop around for sleeves. There are some larger DVD sleeves that you can store the artwork and booklets without cutting anything up.
Great idea...thank you for sharing!!
+Shannon Fisher You're welcome! I hope it helps you if you end up giving it a try. :)
Great Job with design Thanks to share it
Thank you! It's been working perfectly for us for years now! :)
This is a brilliant Idea! I have been trying to figure a system out. is it possible to maybe buy the dividers from you? I don't have card stock or a laminator and I don't see spending the money on either for just 1 project.
Thank you very much! I don't really make them to sell but you could easily do something similar with strong cardboard and some decorative tape.
Why not just take out the DVD from its case to maximize space?? It's crazy I didn't think about that! I was fixing to buy this huge box to put them in since I have so many, but this idea is simple and genius.

This is wonderful!
+Autumn L. Thanks! It has added so much room to our entertainment cabinet!
i feel she is monica geller :P
That's a great idea but I like the original cases on mine. Just be careful what DVDs cases you you get rid of especially Disney because some could be worth a lot depending on the version and if it's back in the DIsney vault :)
Especially if slipcover is still there
+thedisney92 I didn't get rid of any of the cases...I just put them out in the garage in case I ever wanted to use them again. :)
You missed the point of the comment.
thank you for helping me organize my Kids movie
You're welcome, I'm glad it was helpful! :) Thanks for watching!
Congratulations!!! great job. I can't wait to get rid of all media some day #ytmm love
+Caras Life on the Farm Thanks! It certainly was an undertaking but I'm so happy with how it turned out! :)
You have a Wii U!
Yep. :)
+aplacetonest Who uses the Wii U?
It's SOUL LESS though ! Nobody will SEE your great collection. !
I had the idea to do that with my CDs years ago and put them in paper
sleeves with the front cover included, and now I got tired of that idea
and hopefully one day will buy all new cases. I like to look at the front and back covers when I am listening to music. The experience of listening to music then becomes more of a ritual.
Thank you, now I should do something like this with my photo CDs. #YTMM
+Counting Blessings You're so welcome...you will love it!
This is great idea! I have a friend that has a DVD collection that is out of control! #ytmm
+Jones Family Travels Thanks! I think a lot of us have collections like that! I hope this video can help her to get them organized! :)
Why did they make DVD cases so bulky to begin with? Should we blame shoplifters?
Back then, buying a DVD was a special purchase. It came with a special case. They were $25 or more (in 1997 money, which is like spending $50 now.) It was something you owned 10-20 of maybe. Maybe some of your favorite movies. Nobody expected them to be $1 each on Ebay, and people to own hundreds or thousands of them.
They are not stored. They are partially destroyed. This is why movies come in protective cases that raise the disc so no scratches and labele. Ugh.
The pop center can decrease the shelf life. The scratches mainly affect the plastic, not the paint where the data is. This can be a nicer approach for media preservation that the push and bend disc option. Never mind that many sets sold at Walmart come broken.
Awesome!
nice
Thank you! :)
My goodness u can ramble. I was gonna subscribe but it took u 3 quarters into the clip to get to the point!
I would have subscribed... BUT your intro is TOO LONG WINDED... OMG. You exhausted me after 3minutes i was done. Gosh...!! Why talk so much to get to the point.
get lost wanker
You are bloody GORGEOUS, so yeah, who cares ifn your discs get all scratched and messed up huh, at the end, you'll still be a hottie 😁😁😁 but yea, I'd never destroy my DVDs like that
That's very sweet of you to say! So far we haven't had any scratching but I know a lot of people prefer to keep their DVD's in the cases. :)
Oh wow ... You're the second person to tell me that y'all haven't had your discs scratched from them sleeves ... That's cool 😁😁😁 yeah, anytime ... And happy New year 🙈🙉🙊
