Every CD has a story, a concert you’ll never forget, a summer anthem that played on repeat, or the first album you ever saved up for.

With a wall display like this, you get to see those memories every day. The circular shape adds rhythm to the room, almost like a vinyl record spinning endlessly on the wall.

Each slot cradles a piece of your past, but the overall design feels crisp and modern.

Imagine pulling one out on a lazy Sunday, sliding it into an old player, and letting nostalgia fill the room.

Materials Needed

• 1 or 2 circular CD wall racks (approx. 30-36” diameter each)
• 100-150 CDs with cases
• Wall anchors and screws
• Measuring tape and level
• Drill and screwdriver

Step-by-step Guide

Step 1: Choose a prominent wall with good visibility, like above a radiator or sofa. This project doubles as art, so placement matters.

Step 2: Measure and mark where the circular racks will go, making sure they’re level and evenly spaced if you’re hanging two.

Step 3: Drill holes and install heavy-duty wall anchors that can handle the combined weight of the rack and your CDs.

Step 4: Mount the racks securely with screws. Then test their stability before adding CDs.

Step 5: Begin sliding in your CD cases, arranging by genre, color, or even mood. The circular design makes every arrangement look intentional.

Step 6: Step back and enjoy, a functional music library that doubles as statement decor.

Tips:

For a fun twist, you can alternate between CDs and small framed photos in the slots, mixing memories of music with snapshots of life.
