After my recent shoe binge at DSW, I am completely out of room in my shoe closet. I bought two sets of The Container Store’s shoeboxes and only had about 3 empty boxes left so I had to get creative and double up on some of my flats.
I don’t think I’ve shared this setup on my blog yet (my memory is horrible) but here it is. I’m using my old linen closet from my apartment and have stacked them full with plastic shoe boxes. Before this, I kept all of my shoes in their original shoe boxes. This worked great until I stocked up on multiple shoes per brand and soon I was digging through 4-5 boxes to find the right shoe. I was originally going to get a Polaroid camera and take a picture of each pair to put on the side of the box but realized with the price of Polaroid film, that would cost me more than the boxes themselves. So for now, I use the dust bag as a way to “label” the brand and the clear top makes it super easy to identify the right shoe! Now if only there was an easy way to organize my bags…
