I use 13 gallon Rubbermaid boxes for all my storage. I give the boxes a number, and I keep and index card with the number and the contents (general) in that box. I stack my Rubbermaids two high, and cover with a pretty sheet and the colorful Mexican serapes. They look like a long covered table, and I place books or magazines on top.
I have a window seat of Rubbermaids, that I place pillows for seating. No one would guess that I have storage containers. I do have a bed, chairs and tables. What are in my storage: clothing, underwear, books, tapes, cassettes, magazines, old electronics, cords, Beta, 8 mm, and above all, my personal journal since age 15 and I am now almost 67. Travel postcards, family pictures etc.
I have five bookcases of VHS tapes, and many more on closet shelves and Rubbermaid boxes. Some are from 1979, and they still play. I may convert all of them to DVD, but Beta was the very best format. My friends who know about my collection, calls my home "The Rubbermaid Home". It works for me.
