My huge issue is that my closet has hot water baseboard radiators in it, so I get very nervous about storing nice leather shoes on the floor of my closet and I am always looking for non-closet shoe storage options.Carolynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10309258255366080176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5210558362945352459.post-66914143652749884292012-01-13T06:24:50.641-08:002012-01-13T06:24:50.641-08:00Kathysue, great ideas!

That's way too much storage capacity for an aspiring purger!<br />Love the ottoman idea - you can purchase pretty, vinyl covered folding ottomans with removable lids for under $20... so it's a no-brainer! It would work great for storing gloves and scarves as well.<br />Have a lovely day, Kathysue!<br />~ Wendi ~ xoWendi @ Classic Chic Homehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10995195339169630795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5210558362945352459.post-57121820143763074522012-01-12T11:05:58.130-08:002012-01-12T11:05:58.130-08:00So many people seem to like those shoe racks with ...So many people seem to like those shoe racks with the wire forms for each shoe to slide on to. Can you even use shoe trees with those? I don't think so. Then there is the box issue. Fancy, cute boxes with pretty labels and/or pictures of the shoes to identify them. <br />I am all for boxes, but only for out of season or dress shoes...not for those I want to wear often. Too difficult to get at, I say.<br />My favorite storage now is the hanging shelf/bag. You know, it attaches with velcro to the rod, then a pair of shoes fits into the fabric "shelf". Love it love it. Accessible, easy to see, fits what? 6-8 pairs in a line. Of course, most of my shoes are flip flops or ballet flats, so it's perfect for that!<br />I'm loving this "series" Kathysue!<br />Have to add here: I am not a shoe collector: my feet are very tempermental (!) so I choose very carefully!Libby https://www.blogger.com/profile/11556491482494737313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5210558362945352459.post-65654620872662890132012-01-12T10:41:00.222-08:002012-01-12T10:41:00.222-08:00Kathysue- I don't know if it was your words th...Kathysue- I don't know if it was your words that inspired me or if I was already on my way...BUT...I did the same thing this past week. I have a whole slew of shoes for my daughter to go through.I can't wear high heels anymore either (after wearing them everyday for 35+ years) and I am getting rid of some that LOOK bad (but still feel oh-so-good on) and I am TRYING to get rid of the ones I will probably NEVER wear again! sigh..it's a process, isn't it?
