But we are about to put our house on the market, so the closet that has always bugged me now needs to be addressed. Formally. And it must meet my demands. Today.
The main problem I have in my closet is really my shoes. My shoe collection has grown exponentially this year because a friend of mine gave me a whole suitcase full of shoes when we visited over the summer, and my sister gave me several pairs when I visited her in Arizona in November. (Are my own shoes really that bad? Maybe I look like I need shoes…I got some for Christmas too, come to think of it! Did someone hang my name and shoe size on the Dove Tree?)
So to tackle my shoe problem, the first thing I did for my closet was to invest in a Hanging Shoe rack. I already had a shoe rack that hangs on the inside of the door, but I have overflow now that I have become a charity case! I bought my hanging shoe rack in a dark color, which will blend into the dark background of the closet behind my clothes unobtrusively. This has helped more than I could imagine, and really takes up very little space! I am so pleased. I can keep my "occasional" shoes in this rack, and keep my every-day shoes on the back of the door where I have easier access. After purging a few extra pairs (and a few that I have had since 9th grade), I was able to easily fit all of my shoes in my two racks, with three pairs of boots left over. They fit perfectly along the baseboard under the hanging rack. Voila!
Here are the photos:
Over the next few weeks, I will be giving product reviews on all of the items I used to tame my closet. But in the meantime, here is the photo of the closet after I showed it who really wears the pants around here!
