Neat and Tidy / myLot

United States

I like my home to be neat and tidy. A place for everything and everything in its place. An area in my home that drives me nuts is the area at our front door. We take our shoes off when we come in our house. Unfortunately the shoes are not always taken to their closet. We don’t have a coat closet in our living room entrance and the collection of shoes at the door is not very attractive. I am constantly putting them up. I like the look of this shoe tower. I’d rather not have shoes in the living room at all, but this would help me feel better about having the shoes there, I think I will look into getting one. Do you have an area in your home that is an eyesore ?

Well right now the living room has a bunch of boxes in it. I think I will put the big one outside though. I like those shoe towers too.

It’s probably the table when you first walk into my apartment. It looks like a “catch all” table, with paperwork, keys, candles, and so much more just sitting there.

@AmbiePam We have a hutch near the front door that can get cluttered if I don’t straighten it up every day.

My workroom definitely needs an upgrade. Was planning to do it before the new year but got sidetracked.

I get sidetracked at times too. I think that I try to start too many things at one time.

Shoe storage has always been a problem here. We have a coat closet, but it's more like a 3/4 size . . . I had a shelving unit in there to hold our shoes. I realized that it wasted a lot of space though . . . so now I'm looking for a different way.

I hope that you find a solution.

I'm a lousy housekeeper but I would like a place close to the front door where I could keep my gardening tools and leashes, thankfully shoes are not a problem for me so far.

I probably would feel the same if other people lived here but that's not the case.

We have a laundry room between the garage and the kitchen where the shoes go.

My back door is in my laundry room, but everyone uses the front door.

We have a shoe rack in the passage not visible to anyone.

I have the same problem by the front door. We don't have a closet so our shoes are on the floor. I like that shoe tower and I bet it would work really well and keep things neat and tidy.

What happens to the shoes when they are wet from snow or rain? Do you have another entrance the family could enter that is not so obvious? My bedroom is a mess right now. Workers are remodeling the bathroom I use. All the stuff that was in that bathroom is sitting in baskets and boxes in my room. But, it will go back better when they are done.
