I have about 1200-1400 cds and I'm running out of ideas on how to store them "attractively".  Anybody have any suggestions?

Attractively? Gonna need a bit more than that.

If you mean easily accessible and estethic I suggest getting some custom made wall to wall shelves.

You could keep them at my house.

Yeah, Ikea has some decent storage racks.

I'd put some of your better one's there, which is what I have, the rest I took an empty paper box from work & keep them in there.

By "attractive" I mean something that looks more like furniture than steel storage racks, that sort of thing.  Still I want it to be functional with some sort of shelves/drawers, not just piled on top of each other.  Some of these cds (not all of course) are rare and some were 50-100 bucks (like an original pressing "Heroin" by AIC, not the cdr bootleg)  so it is important to keep them in good shape and easy to access for "bragging rights", lol.

Are you handy with tools? You could try and make one. Make like a project out of it or just order a custom piece that fits your room. That's what I would do if I needed to store all those CDs. Quite a collection.

Fairly handy but wouldn't be that great for anything in the way of engraving the wood or anything.  However, that is a good idea man.  Everything I've seen worth buying is either ridiculously priced or gay looking or just to big and bulky.  Guess that's what I get for being a pack rat.
