Shoe Shelf.



I am a big believer in buying great quality leather shoes with leather soles.  They aren't necessarily expensive (I am a size 7 and I am lucky enough to live close to Daffys where I find amazing Italian shoes in my size).  Whenever the soles or the rubber on the heels gets worn down I take them to be repaired.   I have acquired a lot of shoes over the years (what can I say I hardly ever throw out any shoes).  Anyway, I needed some shelves for my shoes and one very snowy day (last week) Scott built these shelves for me.


As you can see they are only half way done.  I want the shelves to go all the way up to the ceiling.  One of the shelves will hold my boots.  Once all the shelves are installed I will prime and paint the wood white.



 

This is a close up of the shelves.  I color cordinated the shoes (!) so they wouldn't look too cluttered.

Raena,
Thank you for your kind words. The house is a labor of love. I am now in the process of adding more shelves so that I have a whole wall of shelves for my shoes!
