6. Organize Your Shoes

Pull all the shoes out of your closet and match up the pairs.
Discard shoes you haven't worn in over a year; you probably won't wear them again. Next pull out the shoes that are too small, are worn out or out of style. You can donate these shoes to Goodwill, Nike's Reuse-A-Shoe Program, or a local charity of your choice.
Depending on the size of your closet, following are options for organizing:
- Lay all the shoes on the floor of the closet matched up in pairs. If you have enough room for two rows, place the current season in the front row and other seasons on the back row.
- Hang a shoe rack on the clothing rod to store your shoes.
- Hang a shoe rack on the back of your closet door.
- Store your shoes in plastic shoe boxes or the boxes they came in and stack the boxes neatly on a shelf. Take a photo of each pair and tape to the outside of each box. This way you know what shoes are inside without having to open each box.
- If space is truly limited, you can store you shoes under your dust ruffle.
