Hmmm... lamariniere on "How do you store your boots?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-store-your-boots/page/2#post-1977004 Tue, 09 Dec 2014 13:10:41 +0000 lamariniere 1977004@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @Greentea: thanks! In the warmer months I keep them in boxes kind of haphazardly in the laundry room, so the entry area isn't nearly as cluttered. But now that it's cold, I have them all out, which is creating the problem! raspberries on "How do you store your boots?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-store-your-boots#post-1977002 Tue, 09 Dec 2014 13:10:24 +0000 raspberries 1977002@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @lamariniere: Oh darn, I was hoping that was a wall, not a door, ha. Do you open your windows? Could you put a shelf across the top of the radiator, and put the boots on it? They'd be kind of displayed in the window, but a little more organized. alohaorchid on "How do you store your boots?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-store-your-boots#post-1976991 Tue, 09 Dec 2014 13:05:53 +0000 alohaorchid 1976991@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I use empty, clean wine bottles.

Is there an armoire in another area where the shoes not being worn can be stored?

The big question is finding the thing that can be stacked! @raspberries: I like those ideas. The problem is that the the door is a double wide door, so nothing can go immediately to the right of the door because if we fully open it for things like furniture, it wouldn't be able to swing all the way open. mfa_lady on "How do you store your boots?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-store-your-boots#post-1976972 Tue, 09 Dec 2014 12:54:37 +0000 mfa_lady 1976972@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I keep mine all thrown in a laundry basket in our closet. I wouldn't recommend it. :silly: raspberries on "How do you store your boots?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-store-your-boots#post-1976969 Tue, 09 Dec 2014 12:52:09 +0000 raspberries 1976969@https://boards.hellobee.com/ That empty wall with the scooter by it - could you do a boot rack there, vertically? Something like one of these?

Can you stack two things on top of each other, secured of course. oliviaoblivia on "How do you store your boots?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-store-your-boots#post-1976789 Tue, 09 Dec 2014 11:08:08 +0000 oliviaoblivia 1976789@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @lamariniere: you could build (who has time to build stuff?!) A bench and do something similar underneath. I see your pile dilemma. That would drive me insane (no judgment, our house is often like that too).

I use a slacks hanger and hang them in the closet. Could you mount some sort of shelf/hanging rod above the bench? lamariniere on "How do you store your boots?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-store-your-boots#post-1976768 Tue, 09 Dec 2014 11:02:42 +0000 lamariniere 1976768@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @oliviaoblivia: we literally do not have closets, none! Otherwise I would just store them in the closet. oliviaoblivia on "How do you store your boots?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-store-your-boots#post-1976759 Tue, 09 Dec 2014 10:57:50 +0000 oliviaoblivia 1976759@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I used to have a low mounted rod and boot hangers. It was perfect. I haven't put it back up in our new house yet, but my boots fit my pregnant calves, so right now they are in a box in the basement waiting for next year. :sad: Kind like this....

The big ones or customizable ones that we've found are more than we want to pay. looch on "How do you store your boots?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-store-your-boots#post-1976538 Tue, 09 Dec 2014 08:39:53 +0000 looch 1976538@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @lamariniere: I really don't see why you can't get rid of the current bench and coat rack and get a small armoire? I mean, if you measured and it doesn't fit, it doesn't fit, but I have to believe that there is some kind of premade 2 door closet that could work. krispi on "How do you store your boots?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-store-your-boots#post-1976533 Tue, 09 Dec 2014 08:39:00 +0000 krispi 1976533@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I have this in my closet and keep my boots in the large compartments at the bottom. <a href="http://www.bedbathandbeyond.com/store/product/real-simple-reg-shoe-and-boot-organizer-in-natural/1017038249?categoryId=12213" rel="nofollow">http://www.bedbathandbeyond.com/store/product/real-simple-reg-shoe-and-boot-organizer-in-natural/1017038249?categoryId=12213</a> lamariniere on "How do you store your boots?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-store-your-boots#post-1976432 Tue, 09 Dec 2014 03:09:21 +0000 lamariniere 1976432@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @sarac: The current situation is a pile.

The space is pretty small and I hate just having all the boots scattered since they don't fit on the shoe rack. Also, I would love to get rid of the coat stand, but can't seem to for the moment.

The ones I wear constantly usually in a pile next to the door. :meh: I've long wanted to find a vintage cabinet and do a shoe curio, but have yet to find one. We also have one of these things in the garage, maybe you can put it next to your door? <a href="http://www.target.com/p/room-essentials-pantry-cabinet-white/-/A-15119598#prodSlot=_1_1" rel="nofollow">http://www.target.com/p/room-essentials-pantry-cabinet-white/-/A-15119598#prodSlot=_1_1</a> Anya on "How do you store your boots?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-store-your-boots#post-1976020 Mon, 08 Dec 2014 18:14:51 +0000 Anya 1976020@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Paper towel rolls! sarac on "How do you store your boots?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-store-your-boots#post-1976018 Mon, 08 Dec 2014 18:13:54 +0000 sarac 1976018@https://boards.hellobee.com/ So, in a pile isn't an option for you?

I had planned to order those initially and would have if I hadn't changed my plans. I think they were really affordable too! Check there!
