I am in love with this new glossy! Have you seen it? Fresh Home Magazine is at the moment a quarterly, wonderful glossy for DIY enthusiasts everywhere. I really hope they start publishing monthly. They have some great organizing tips as well!
So when I was contacted a couple of months ago for a few tips to go in the winter issue I was elated to say the least. So there it is my shoe storage tip. Right there among other tips from one of my favorite blogging organizer’s. I know it is too small to read so I’ll share the tip.
“A lot of people overlook the space beneath where your clothes are hanging. That space is perfect for shoes,” says Tanna Clark of Complete Organizing Solutions in Nashville. “Don’t sit them on the floor, but get clear, stackable containers so you can see your shoes at a glance.”
I love all of the fabulous photos in this magazine especially the rows and rows of open shelves with shoes lining them. For me though I am not about to have to dust my shoes, so I put them in clear shoe boxes. The picture above is my closet. :)
So how do you store your shoes? Are they piled up on the floor, on open shelves or boxed up?

Congrats on the magazine quote Tanna! Your closet is a thing of beauty. :)
Most all of my shoes are in their original boxes. The out of season ones are stacked in the back of the closet. It is a pain at times…I think I might give this a try. Thanks and congrats on making the mag!
OMG! I am SO missing Blueprint and Domino too–what a great find! I’ll look for it at Borders next time I’m there. Thanks for letting me know about it!
I love a new home/organizing magazine. I still miss Blueprint and Domino!
Congrats on the mention! The tip is so smart.
Congrats on getting in the Magazine. I would by this mag in a heartbeat. It’s right up my alley.
What a beautiful closet! I love the organization!
My shoes are on the back of the door between the bathroom and bedroom in a cloth shoe rack. Well, most of them are… my “everyday” shoes are in the coat closet by the outside door. I don’t like having to “dig” through piles to find a matching pair! :)
