How do you keep track of items in a large collection

Sure! Here are four different ways to keep track of items in a large collection:

**Spreadsheet Method**: I like to use a spreadsheet to keep everything organized. I create columns for item names, descriptions, locations, and any other details I need. It’s super easy to sort and filter when I’m looking for something specific.

**Inventory App**: There are some great apps out there designed for inventory management. I just snap a photo of each item, add some notes, and it keeps everything in one place. Plus, I can access it from my phone, which is super convenient!

**Labeling System**: I’ve got a labeling system down. Each item has a label with a unique code, and I keep a master list that matches the codes to the items. It makes it really easy to find what I need without having to dig through everything.
