I don't know about you, but my shoe storage situation is not a pretty sight. I have a cubby that hangs from my clothing rod that's overflowing, as well as shelves stacked in my closet, and on top of that my shoes are always piled up on the floor of my closet. Each seems to be vying for my attention, and I always forget about the pairs that are stuck at the bottom of the pile. So I've been on the hunt for a shoe storage solution that'll get my shoes out of the closet and out on display, right where I can see them. As it turns out, there are plenty of clever ideas. The hard part is choosing one!

ReplyFor many people spring time is de-clutter time. When we take an honest look around us, we see all the things that are cluttering up our homes. One such item is shoes.
As amazing as it sounds, when it comes to shoes, organizing experts say that a female age 13-16 may own about 15 pair of shoes including sneakers. A mature woman 25-50, owns anywhere from 40-60 pairs of shoes. A question that plagues many people who don’t understand shoe obsessions is what exactly do these people do with all their shoes? Where on Earth do they keep them?
One answer comes from Bill Goodman, inventor of a new stackable organizing system called EazyFind
“I had one of those a-ha moments," explains Goodman. "As I opened my mailbox I remembered a pile of shoes that I saw on my daughter's closet floor two days earlier. I closed the mailbox then opened it again. Since I'm in the box business I stood and stared at the mailbox thinking, ‘I wonder if I can do this in cardboard?' That evening I sketched out my idea for a box that would open like my mailbox. It worked, and I thought 'How cool would it be to have a photograph on the front?' The material was there so I added a pocket window on the front panel. I now had a drop-front opening box, with a place for a photograph of its contents.”
