Using Every Inch: Shoe Shelves

When we got tired of wearing the same shoes every day, we knew it was time to figure out where we could store our footwear. The bedroom, where the rest of our clothes reside, seemed likely, but we didn't want shoes thrown in the bottom of a closet or lined up along the bed. 

The solution? We realized we had up to eight inches to play with between our wardrobe and the woodbox we're building for the stove. We measured our shoes; they would only need shelves six inches wide, and that would still leave room for the sides of a shelving unit and a firewall for the wood stove.

​We built shelves the height of the IKEA wardrobe we'd already assembled, inserted six-inch-wide shelves, painted it all black to match the closet and, viola, all our shoes and boots have a home. Because the armoire is 24-inches deep, a pair of shoes can slide in each slot.
