Organizing the closet!

I have some space underneath the stairs, so my husband put up shelves for me. On the shelves I’ve placed large plastic storage containers. I put each pair of shoes in a clear bag, and then into the box.

It works for me, as I don’t have the space for individual shoe boxes, but also keeps the pairs together and I can grab them quickly. I’ve grouped types of shoes together in each container, so the box closest to hand contains my work shoes and what I wear most frequently. The next one has summer sandals etc. Putting them in the bag also protects them from mildew (as long as the shoes are completely dry before they go into the bag), as it can be a bit damp under our stairs.

My fancier shoes, I keep in the original box, and stack on the shelf.

That’s a smart utilization of space!
I was thinking maybe I’ll get done shelves in the basement and store them there!
