Ideas for storing shoes

8 replies

beinglikedisoverrated · 16/09/2021 19:45

In a very small space please! Need storage for around 24 pairs of shoes and six pairs of boots in total. Found something I liked on wish and Amazon ( like open clear shoe boxes stacked type thing) but reviews are terrible. Max budget circa £35 ish and ideally about as tall as a tall billy IKEA type bookcase iyswim

Recommendations wanted please

Do you have a narrow wall? I have a shallow floor to ceiling shoe cupboard with loads of shelves a door on it. Love it

We made it.
I have a wall which is the same width as a standard door. We just built a frame, put shallow shelves in ( depth is only about 12 or 13 inches), and put a door on it.
It fits many many pairs of shoes+ umbrella s. I have taller shelves for boots too. As it has a door, it looks tidy.


However.....there are some great IKEA hacks.


Hold on, I'll try and link....

I just saw your budget was £35.

If you're patient, you can find everything on FB marketplace/ Gumtree/ car boot.
There are so many clever people on Pinterest...

Ooh, I love a DIY challenge 😀😀

Argos is good for shoe storage. Lots of different sized and shaped options.

Ottoman bed...all my (far too many) shoes and boots live in there, with a small shoe cabinet in the downstairs loo with just the ones we all wear often.
