    Hey I love my shoes and have quite a few! I was thinking of getting a blanket box or two to put them in?! Anyone got any other suggestions for good shoe storage - bearing in mind they wont fit in my wardrobes? any idea where to get decent size blanket boxes? Niamh

    Depending on the amount you want to spend some recommendations for Shoe store.

    Seperate compartments so that the shoes dont get damaged on each other

    Also enclosed storage as dust can affect the shoes.

    Argos have some items <a href="http://www.argos.ie/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ArgosBrowseCounts?storeId=30001&amp;jspStoreDir=argosie&amp;identifier=8170573&amp;Trail=C%24cip%3D43800%3EC%24cip%3D43811%3EC%24cip%3D43821&amp;catalogId=10151&amp;langId=-1">here</a>

    Thanks,

    Thank you for the info. Had a look, there are some good choices there for a start anyway! Gotta get these shoes outta the black bags! Thank you again.

    Every time I buy a pair of shoes my girlfriend takes the box and uses it for her shoes.

    These are probably a solution too.

    Ohhh i like those clear boxes, they are a great idea! And also a good idea about taking your GF using your shoe boxes! I just wouldn't have the patience to be looking through boxes, would have to stick a pic on the front! I have to get whatever is best for limited space! all the wardrobes are full so need something to neatly sit in a room and can be filled up! I am still thinking those shoe things you showed me earlier from argos or a blanket box thingy to throw them all in! Thanks again Richard

    Don't know where you are, but I found an ideal storage idea for that...A storage bench you can take a pair of shoes out and put the lid down and try them on ....great!! Have bought one in a duck egg blue, but I think they are available in lots of colours.. in a the new shop in Bailieborough What Knot Interiors...042 9665959 where are you ...I keep telling people about this place but don't know where you are... Also, try a trunk...or bug blanket box, they are everywhere...but I am so happy with my storage bench as it suits my room. Anyway happy shopping
