@wilma   Shredded paper is another thing I put in paper grocery bags and take to the Humane Society. They use it bedding for hamsters and guina pigs, as well as for kitty litter if funds run low.

Makes sense. My local humane society sends out requests once in awhile, but I've never seen a request for shredded paper. I will call them to find out. Goodness knows we get enough junk mail to shred so we could definitely supply some.

Re: Do you use shoe boxes for storage?

I'd be embarrassed to say how many I have but yes, I keep my shoes in their original boxes.

Re: Do you use shoe boxes for storage?

I do for suede and nubuck materials.  Not so much for the rest of my shoes.  I have more shoes than should be allowed by law.  I won't get rid of them because I know they will come back in style!  Tall boots are must for keeping the box too.

Re: Do you use shoe boxes for storage?

@Roscoe the RascalI have a twenty pair hanging rack inside my closet door.  That still doesn't do it because the rack is only good for heels.  Flats/wedges have to go the closet floor and it's a mess.  This is not to say my attic isn't a mess full of shoes either.  It's bad.

I do not store my shoes in boxes.  I am lucky to have shoe shelves in a large walk in closet.  I do keep the nicer, more rigid boxes to store things such as Christmas cards, old photos and small seasonal decor.


I knew there was a reason I liked you @LindaSal .  Walk in closet full of shoes to look up and down and across at....Ahhhhh, that's the life!
