Shoe storage ideas
1 minute read
How to maximise shoe storage and keep it tidy:
- Get editing, are you holding on to shoes you don’t use?
- If you are keeping a pair of shoes just for sentimental reasons, put them in a mementos box or on display – don’t keep them with your everyday shoes.
- Add actual storage to where you keep your shoes (not just in a pile)
- If this is overflowing – can you store less-used shoes elsewhere?
- Consider storing out of season footwear away
- Maximise hanging space (inside a cupboard/downstairs toilet door)
- Don’t overfill the bottom of the wardrobe with shoe storage, this can add to a cluttered feel and it’s tempting to pile other stuff on top of it.
- Consider investing in a simple modular wall unit (this way you can make it fit exactly what you have. See video for where to get.
- Baskets work well for children’s shoes – label one container for each child – so they know where to put them away after use.
- Change your shoe storage to reflect any change in lifestyle or hobbies. Make it work for you.
