Chic Ideas For Shoe Storage

dissolve into this

Shoe storage isn’t an easy task. Sometimes it is hard to find a good looking piece of furniture to keep our shoes or to incorporate one of those shoe storage units in our home decoration. What if instead of hiding our shoes in a closet or inside an ugly shoe furniture we use a vintage chest to display them?

 Oh I bet Carrie from Sex and The City would ‘ve been delirious with happiness having such a tresure for her Manolo Blahniks! There is a combination from heaven. A vintage chest, a juju hat and abstract art paintings. I want them home sooo badly!

If an elegant classic vintage piece isn’t an option consider using a rustic cupboard instead. Anything that doesn’t scream “shoe storage unit” will do!

 What if you can’t spare the space required for a cabinet?  Then maybe a rattan basket will host  elegantly few pairs of shoes.

Or a metal tray full of pebbles waiting in our foyer to receive our shoes. How elegant is that?

Decorating With Cable Spools

Wooden pallets are still appearing everywhere. Lets have a look at cable spools and how we can use them to decorate our home. My aunt has one of those since 2 decades ago, long before repurposing old stuff became a trend. She uses it for table in the garden and I remember thinking how smart idea it was!

Tables are the most favorite makeover of a cable spool. It can be a beautiful and handy coffee table. You can let the wood show or you can paint it as you like.
