Disney Overfloweth

A few years ago, my children were very young, and our days were filled with various arts and crafts activities, not to mention plenty of Disney movies! As a little girl, I have fond memories of watching classics like Sleeping Beauty and Cinderella, so it was only natural for Disney movies to become a cherished part of my kids’ lives as well. We even joined the Disney Movie Club a couple of times, ensuring that our collection of kids’ DVDs was always well-stocked.

However, I soon realized that the DVD cases were consuming a significant amount of space. Determined to make the most efficient use of our available space, I embarked on a quest to find a better solution. Our entire cabinet used to house our DVDs, but I wanted to repurpose it for something else, and I was confident that a more practical solution was out there.

The Solution

Streaming services like Netflix and Hulu have revolutionized our viewing habits, but the challenge of managing DVDs persists. Recently, I discovered Clear DVD sleeves on Amazon, and they proved to be the perfect solution. As soon as they arrived, I eagerly organized my collection.

I removed the DVD covers and placed them in front of the clear envelopes, neatly storing the DVDs inside. They fit perfectly! As I continued, I was amazed at how much space I saved. It allowed me to completely clear out my DVD cabinet and repurpose it for spices. My space transformed into a clean, clutter-free haven, providing a breath of fresh air.

The Storage Box

After I had all of these newly re-organized DVDs, I realized that I needed some sort of box to put them in. So I looked around for the perfect solution for a couple of weeks and finally found it! I found the Kvarnvik Storage box that fits the DVDs absolutely perfectly! I love how this storage box is even more on the decorative side and I don’t mind putting it out in the open.

I even went a step further and created DVD dividers according to the type of movie. You could easily do this yourself! Take some cardstock and use the new DVD as a template and trace around the DVD sleeve onto the cardstock. Now cut it out, leaving a small notch at the top so you can label it! Here are some category ideas that you could use for your own DVD storage space:

Because the storage space in our homes is so valuable to us, this solution was an absolute NO BRAINER! For only a few dollars, you can completely transform your DVD and Video Game storage! Viola, just like magic!
