Shoe Organization

Today I did something I’ve never done before. I made a special place for my shoes and then organized them by placing them in plastic shoe boxes.

These shoe boxes are cheap and are great for small shoes. My husband’s shoes will just have to hang out on the shelf because I doubt we can find a cheap plastic box to put these in. I’ve tried shoe racks and other shoe storage solutions but never stick with them for very long. I really like these shoe boxes and hope that this is a solution that I can stick with.

Our closet space is very limited. In fact, we don’t have a closet in our bedroom, so there isn’t really a spot for us to hide our shoes. So by using these shoe boxes on the bottom row of a bookshelf creates a clean, neat shoe storage spot.

This is just one small step in hoping living a more organized life. There’s still much to do but it’s nice to have at least one small part done.

  1. Yeah, the shoe box should work, however be warned, if your husband is anything like me, we will be kicking the shoes into the box when we’re lazy ;)

    Can you tell me where you bought the clear plastic shoe boxes? Thank you.

    I got the boxes from Wal-Mart. They usually have this size in stock. I think when I bought these they were under $1 – might be a little higher now. It seems everything costs more these days.
