Different Concepts For Shoe Racks
Aug 26th
A survey of 1057 women conducted in 2007 found that on average, women in the US own 19 shoes while 15% of women have over 30 shoes. With all these shoes scattered around, having a system to arrange them becomes a requirement. Taking a couple of materials, you could make a shoe rack in no time, and with no money needed.
Floating Shoe Racks
Take a wood board around 1/2 inch thick and 6 in wide to make a spacious bottom shelf and a wooden board ? in thick and 3 in wide to make the short top shelf. Reduce the length to match the spot where the shoe rack is going be. If you want, you could stain or paint the wood and coat with polyurethane, or just leave it naturally. Attach the L brackets to the wooden board first making use of screws, after that, utilize the bracketed wooden boards to mark walls for where to put holes, ensuring you leave sufficient space between the bottom and top shelf to hold your shoes. Lastly, utilize the sleeve type drywall anchors to attach the L brackets in your wall. If you have lots of shoes and lots of space, consider putting a 3rd or 4th shelf, as required.
Shoe Rack from Nightstands
This shoe rack doubles as a worktable and varied storage and is useful for mudrooms or entryways. Take 2 matching nightstands about 12 in deep and set it up in a metal corner brace 24 in above the floor, attached parallel above the nightstands. Continue with 2 metal corner braces, attached 7 inches lower and slight downward angle. Repeat this step another time with the 2 braces attached another 7 inches down and same downward angle. After that, attach the 2 nightstands 4 feet apart with the braces to each other and attach a piece of plywood or stair tread, 3 total, 1 on each of the pairs of brace. Attach the stair treads with screws to the braces. The board must be flat for bench and the bottom 2 angled to put the shoes.
Recycled Shoe Racks
For instant racks, purchase a cast off pallet from any market and place the pallet on its end, making use of the open slats to hold the shoes between. Or, look for an old bookshelf and reuse it to wedge shoes. To create a pull out shoe rack, just attach the rollers to the back of the flat plastic or wooden rack and you have a shoe organizer you could push under the bed.
