Nail Polish Storage Reorganization

I'm not the best housekeeper in the world, I admit it.  I can live in a certain amount of clutter, but I do have a threshold, that once's it's exceeded, causes me to spring into action.  I must have hit that threshold, as I decided to tackle my laundry room, which has slowly accumulated items for a yard sale that keeps getting pushed to the next cool weather season.
I store lots of linens in there, and it's also where I store my nail polishes.  They've grown to the point where I was having difficulty seeing what I have.  Some of these polishes have traveled with me from Boston to Chapel Hill to Mobile, dating back 15 years or so.  Many more are new.
So, that's the before - don't judge me.  Or do, but don't tell me about it, cause I'm aware:-)  Fortunately, my laundry room has some nice built in shelves that I decided to use as my polish display area, once I cleaned up the clutter.  Now, I get to look at pretty colors while I'm ironing in the morning.
Polishes are arranged roughly by color family, except for the Julep polishes, as they line up so nicely against the wall.  I've left most of the mini polishes in their original boxes, as rarely do they mark the bottles with names.
Polish count:  286 and growing.  It's a good thing polishes don't tend to go bad on me.  How do you store your polishes - by color, by brand, hodge podge? 

Nothing to disclose.
