my shoe closet is like this..i have those shoe hangy things from ikea...it holds 10 pairs and i have 4 of them hanging in the closet with my shoes in there, then i have the bottom of my closet covered and spewing out with other shoes and boots. I then have a shoe 3 layer shelf, with shoes on that, plus shoes underneath another table i have in my room. then i have all more shoes, still in their boxes, lined up on top of one another against a wall, and it's getting to be almost as tall as me! (i'm 5'7!!) hahaha i need to revamp my closet and get some more ikea hangy things!
