Helpful Hint 1: If you have the room, invest in a shoe shelf. Here is a great example of someone who had enough room in their walk-in close to include this:
This shelf can be found at a place like Ikea. It's affordable and perfect for your entire shoe collection. If we had the room in our closet this would be my preference.
However most of us do not have a Carrie Bradshaw size closet. Helpful Tip #2 is taken right from the Sex and the City star. Keep your shoes in their original boxes but take a picture of them and stick that picture to the outside of the box. This will help keep your shoes neat on the shelf with an easy way for you to know what is in each box.
Helpful Tip #3 deals with your wire hanging shelves. My knee high boots were flopping all over the closet. I went out and purchased the plastic clips that you can get to put on hangers for pants or skirts. I clipped them on to the wire shelving instead so I could hang up my boots. My fear was that the clips would leave a kink in my boots but they have not ruined them at all. The boots hang perfectly.
Both this type of wire shoe hanging shelf or the plastic clips can be found at any Wal-Mart, Target, or home goods store. I hope this helped give you some great ideas on how to organize your shoes. If you have any helpful tips please feel free to share them on our blog.
