Step up Your Shoe Storage and Organization with The Tailored Closet Knoxville

Heels, flats, wedges, strappy, platform, sandals, boots. What are you to do about your shoe storage for all of your favorite shoes?

Yes, ladies, we have a wide variety of shoe styles because there are so many different occasions that require different kinds of footwear and clothing. Unfortunately, without dedicated storage in a closet, shoes are usually piled on the floor where they get kicked around, stepped on, and need replacing more often.

Proper shoe storage in your closet will help display your favorite footwear while saving space, time and money. No matter what the size of your closet, these options will help you step up your shoe storage.

Shoe Storage Shelves

Using dedicated solid shelves keep shoes in top form and easily seen when organized by type and color. To maximize space, place one shoe forward and the other backward, which allows four pairs of women’s shoes on a 24” long shelf. This placement will also let you see the shoe and heel height at a glance.

To better protect shoes, they can be placed in their original boxes or see-through plastic keepers. The same 24” shelf will only fit three shoe or plastic boxes side-by-side but can be stacked two or three high.

Slanted Shelves with Shoe Fence

Slanted shelves with a low decorative rail in the front keep shoes visible and organized. However, if you have a large number of shoes and a small closet, slanted shelves take up more space than straight shelves because they are hung at an angle. This reduces the number of shoes that can be stored in the same space.

Baskets for Flip-Flops

It’s summer and women love their flip-flops! Storing them in a pretty basket and clipping pairs together will save valuable space on your shoe shelves. The basket can fit on the floor or the top shelf of your closet.

Shoe Storage Cubbies

Each side-by-side mini bin houses one pair of shoes. This makes for easy storage and minimizes dust. However, individual cubbies take up more closet space than dedicated shelving. If you have a small closet, opt for shelving.

From high-heel shoes to your shirts, Tailored Living will design and install a custom closet that meets your individual needs … even on a shoestring budget!
