Easy DIY bookshelf shoe rack is great custom idea
November 25, 2015
The search for the perfect shoe rack can be a fruitless, hopeless mess. But do not get defeated — get creative! There are a ton of ways to create your own custom shoe storage. I recently came across this awesome idea on Pinterest and I could not resist sharing. The secret? Just a plain ol’ bookcase.
Bookshelves are a great way to customize DIY storage throughout the entire house, but they really make great shoe racks. If you have a lot of shoes (ladies?) finding storage large enough for your collection can be a problem. Or maybe you have some real stylin’ kicks that you want to show off. Either way, customizing a bookshelf is an easy way to solve your problem.
First, find your shelf. I recommend something with at least five shelves and that has solid wood sides so you can easily customize spacing. First, assemble the outer shell of the shelf — top, bottom and sides. Next, customize your shelves. You can adjust the height and spacing by creating your own screw holes and adjusting shelves to slant forward.
Then find a railing to hold your shoes in place. You can use a large cabinet hardware (drawer pulls or cabinet handles), towel bars and more — get creative.
A bookshelf shoe rack is a great addition to walk-in closets, dressing rooms and more!
