Does anyone know of a shoe holder that holds alot of shoes and takes up little space? If so where did you buy it? I have 150 shoes plus and running out of room. I really need to do something and throwing the shoes away or giving them away is not an option. I appreciate any and all help. Thanks!!!

this one holds 50 pairs, lol, its a start, its kinda like stores use, but if you have a free bedroom wall, maybe just an extra room, or in the back of your closet, you might be able to squeeze more than 50 on it.

You can go to Wal*mart & see what they have. Value City, Walgreens even are good places to check. Target & Kmart too. There are different things in the stores, the one I have, which probably came from wal*mart, wasn't pictured.

this one holds 30, and is $14.99, so if you had a free closet they might work, lmao, course it would take 5 of them

There is a place here called the ABBA house. Its a consignment shop where people donate their items for free the ABBA house sells them for a profit, to pay for a womans shelter. I went in one day and someone had donated 15 pair of brand new shoes all my size for 50 cents a pair. I would have been an idiot to pass them up. They were all dress shoes with big name brands, 9-2-5, nautrulizers, hush puppies. I have always been a shoe freak since I can remember...lol...My name is Mary and I am a shoeaholic...hehe...the purse thing is another obsession I have. I HAVE to have my purse match my shoes...it kills me if I don't. I even have purses to match tennis shoes. Very very anal I know.
My shoes are also in the bottom of my closet in a pile. I dig through them to find mates, and while I am digging I find shoes that I have forgotten about and its excites me..hehe..I say "Oh I forgot I had these" Dh hubby chuckles and just shakes his head. Thanks for all the help ladies. Could some let me know if the over the door ones fling around when youopen and shut the door?
I would love to have the shoe rack that MSLynn posted first but I really lack the space for it, but man o man that thing is awesome.

Woohoo! I'm not the only one!!!! I think I have you beat - I'm up around 200 pair. But remember - some are almost 20 years old, dress shoes that have hardly been worn. I'm trying to get myself to get rid of some. I don't think I'll be wearing 5" stilettos anytime soon - getting too old for that now.

Thanks Patchouli, I have been trying to think of her name ever since I saw this post on the shoes.
I hate buying shoes so needless to say I have very few. I see alot that I like but I know I wouldn't wear them I don't dress up. Plus I hate trying on shoes to try to get them to fit correctly.

Hey Lady!! I have one of those that hangs on the door from Walmart. I think it was $9.99. I got it for Tracy. LOL So far Hers has been great. It doesnt fall off unless She gets to pulling on it or messing with it. You know how She is. LOL I love Hers. I have 2 pairs in some of them(sandals and flats).
By the way, We need to get together again.
