Decluttering - CD storage

5 replies

We are in the process of decluttering and have a couple of boxes of CDs that have just sat in the attic for the past few years. Having finally got a car with a CD player i'd like to put them all into a cd book to keep in the car but DH is being a bit funny about getting rid of the cases and sleeves. Just wondered whether it's possible to put the sleeves in those books too or if anyone knew of a design that allowed that? I think I could probably convince him to get rid of the cases if he could keep the sleeves

Never heard of a CD book that stores the cases as well.

Why don't you put the CDs into the book and put the cases back into the box in the loft.

I remember when I put all of my CDs onto my PC and got rid of all of the actual CDs, for a while I thought I had made a mistake but nowadays there isn't really any need to keep CDs you cannot use any more.

Sorry my post wasn't clear, I don't want to keep the plastic cases just the paper sleeve inside - with the album cover and song tracks etc. Definitely don't want anything back into the loft! Long term I want to on just put them on the pc but I think that'll be one step too far at the moment

I did this with a normal CD folder. Got rid of all the plastic cases and kept the paper bit in the same slot as the CD, works fine!

I misunderstood your first post, what LittleWingSoul said sounds like the way to go.

Great thanks LittleWing - I wasn't sure if the paper bits would fit, but sounds like it could work. Attic space here we come!
