If you're a shoe addict, then you're all too familiar with the ever present question of WHAT DO I DO WITH ALL OF MY SHOES?! If you suffer from chronic lack of space, overflowing shoes, and shoes in places where there shouldn't be shoes, then these shoe organization tips are for you.

• Every pair of shoes needs a home. Don't wait to find it a home--find it a space right when you bring it home.

• Keep shoes off the floor with some sort of storage. While there are plenty of store-bought shelving options, the creative storage options out there are endless!

   You can DIY your own shoe hangers using this tutorial:

 

Or take that one step further with this tutorial

And if your closet has the space, try this super easy DIY for heels! It just uses crown molding! 

• Keep shoes you use the most frequently close to the door for easy access.

• Keep seasonal shoes in clear containers when not in use! They're only taking up valuable space, so stow them away and enjoy the extra space. If you're feeling particularly motivated, take pictures of the shoes and use them as labels, like this example:

 

• Organize your shoes by color, season, or style--whatever works best for you!

• If it really starts to get out of control, implement the one in, one out rule: every time a new pair comes home, an old pair gets donated!

What are your go-to shoe organization tips? Are you a shoe addict, too?

Hello, champs! It's Amy here today here to tell you that I'm a crazy animal lover to the core. Consequently, I'm always on the lookout for quick and easy pet DIYs. Today I have what is probably THE most simple, cheap, and easy DIY ever--a thrifted pet sweater!

 

 

 

All you need is a thrifted toddler sweater, some scissors, and your pet. I thrifted this little toddler sweater for $0.99!

 

All you have to do is cut the sleeves off, and you've got yourself a new sweater for your pet. Hooray!

My silly cat Royal is a huge fan of his sassy sweater.

Have fun making your pet sweater! What kind of pet do you have?

This. Is.

My shoe crush this month is Madoka.
I can't tell you how comfortable these shoes are! I haven't worn comfortable/casual shoes in awhile, but these definitely do the job!
What I like about the Madoka is their fun style. Plus, its always cool when you make people turn and ask where you got your shoes.
That's how you know you have a good pair with you.
