Several years back I purchased a shoe cubby from Target.

| Didn't work out for us |
As part of a continuing effort to live a more organized life, I decided to built shoe racks. The racks needed to hold LOTS of shoes, be easy to assemble and they could not cost a lot of money.
 |
| Before |
There's always scrap wood in the shed, so a cut a few planks to size and grabbed a few left over pavers from the side yard. Before you know it, I was in organization heaven!
 |
| Neatly stacked shoes! |
 |
| These racks hold LOTS more shoes! |
This 3 tied rack is at the bottom of our coat closet. After a couple of weeks I realized that the coats kept knocking the shoes off the top rack. That problem was fixed with a little bit of no skid tape.
 |
| Add non skid tape to the top rack of shoes |
A few strips of this tape keeps all of the shoes in place!
 |
| Non skid tape for top rack |
Total cost of this project = $12 (cost of the non skid tape). Everything else was yard scraps!
 |
| SO EASY! |
PRO TIP:
The best part of this easy build is that you can make the racks any size and shape you want. Here are a few other ideas:
 |
| Corner Racks |
 |
| You could make space for boots |
 |
| You could do all blocks and no wood |
 |
| 2 layer rack |

I am making these for my daughter this week. Her closet in a pile of dozens of shoes and I have been putting off buying one for a year. This step by step design is not only simple, I can get all the supplies for next to nothing at Home Depot and knock it out for her this weekend for sure.
