Shoes, glorious shoes

Yes, I am a shoe-aholic. No! I don’t need help.

Shoes are just one of those things that women can’t explain why it is an obsession. Shoes can
transform your outfit, your confidence, your attitude and it carries you.
So many shoes and only two feet



Today I am sharing two things about shoes, 1. Shoe storage, and 2. Shoe maintenance.
Shoe storage:

1. There are many systems out there. First prize is always if you have the right cupboard space that
provides for shoe storage.
2. If you don’t have that, then you must look at the space available and decide on a storage system.
3. I have two systems.

a. A lazy shoezen. An idea I saw on Pinterest and that my brother made for me. It works on
the same principle as a lazy Susan on a dinner table. It has different compartments and
rotates. What I love most about this, is that all your shoes are visible while rotating.
b. The other system is plastic drawers. It is a set that comes with 3 drawers. There are
different colours to choose from. I prefer the see-through ones. I can store about 3 pairs
per drawer. Each drawer will be categorized by type of shoe.







4. The key about organizing is that items must be easily accessible and also be easy to put back.
Shoe maintenance:

1. At the end of the season, I will go through all my shoes and check for:
a. Heels to be replaced (these shoes will go into the boot of my car – refer to my boot
organizing video)
b. Shoes that needs to be washed or polished. These shoes will go to my laundry room.
c. Shoes that I longer like (donate these – put these into the boot of my car – refer to my
boot organizing video).
d. Shoes that is worn and must be thrown away. These go straight to the bin.
2. If you keep your hands on your shoes, it will last longer.
In closing…. Always buy the most expensive shoes that you can afford. You spend a lot of time on
your feet.

Happy organizing!!
