Cute & Practical DIY Shoe Storage and Organization
Today I’m sharing some cute and practical DIY shoe storage and boot storage and shoe organization ideas to help you keep your entry or foyer organized.
You know how there is an area in your home, that no matter how many times you tidy it up and organize it, it seems to fall apart before you can blink?
For us, it’s our shoe storage.
Part of the problem, of course, is a lack of consistency in using our current shoe storage solution; we have a couple of deep bookcase style shelves that are housed in the garage. They don’t get used as well as I would like because they are overstuffed and a bit too deep for shoes so things tend to get lost in their depths. All in all it’s a basic organizing solution but not a very practical one and I’m definitely looking to change it up.
Since the mudroom/laundry room and garage entry are such a HOT spot and a SORE spot in our home, I’ve been putting a lot of thought into different types of unique solutions for this area. I’d really love to have something more functional in place before fall and then winter arrive, and the boots and big shoes and coats are all out in full force.

Aren’t these such creative ideas? A lot of them are cute enough to look great in a foyer or entry hall, if you don’t have a back door or mudroom to store your shoes in.

Wow, what a great list of ideas put together. I especially love the steam punkish tray. Kids shoes are taking over our lives. We now use an Ikea dresser for fancy shoes and a stand for the regular shoes. Kids still sometimes throw their shoes on the floor. I must say, all those ideas you put together are really creative.
Love these ideas! My favourite has to be the skateboards, looks awesome and they might actually want to put their shoes away!
Excellent post!
We are forever corralling runaway shoes in our house. Before, we used an IKEA cubby with “shoe baskets”- 1 per child. Now, we have a built in storage unit but it’s location does not encourage my kids to use it for their shoes. I think any storage solution we use needs to be in a location where the kids spend the bulk of their time.
