So it's entirely possible that my shoe collection is getting out of hand. Believe me, this is probably less than half of the total. My parents have given me this much space, but I doubt they're about to keep giving me storage space.
So far the best idea I have to maximise this space is to use these
clear shoe-box drawers from Ikea:
I've spotted them here and they're about RM39 for 4 boxes.
Anyone have a suggestion?

i have something similar like that from daiso the curve, with a lid me thinks. it's clear.
and omg, your shoes are gorgeous! and you arrange them in colours! noticed you have mostly peep toes and mary janes too! :P
Hahah, same here! I have way too many pairs of shoes, but I rarely wear them. Which is not good since I'm not getting my full cost-per-wear out of them. :)
hey em,
a friend of mine has this fr ikea:

seems quite snug for her shoes!
alternatively, there's this slightly bigger version: http://www.ikea.com.my/en/catalog/detail2010.asp?art=70160943&q=b18r182p1822&cat=storage,clothes,stand
another friend who has tonnes of shoes used to have a storeroom :P
Plue: I want drawers so I can stack them up and maximise space. And nah I arranged them in colours for the photoshoot. Cannot resist!
Rinnah: Yeah now I have to walk so much the higher heels are looking sad and lonely.
Kat: I wanna storeroom TOO!
Hee, I just got a new shoe cupboard meself. The old shoe rack was overflowing and vomiting shoes. After arranging the shoes, I discovered my father and I have the same number of shoes. Hmm.
I have always wanted a shoe wheel: http://myshoestorage.com/au/shoewheel.htm *sigh*
One of these days when my parents are away, I'll arrange ALL my shoes on the stairs and take a snapshot...
HAHAHAH... you just realised, did you? LOL. Buy your own shoe cabinet, and put it in the extra room downstairs. Another idea is what I saw a friend do. Keep them in shoe their boxes, with a photo of the shoes stapled to the shoe box. She had two neat piles standing nearly as tall as her. There were like what.. 40 pairs? It's an idea..
Syen: My dad will STRANGLE me if I put more furniture in the house - particularly for shoes. =P Also, if the boxes don't have drawers I know i'll be too darned lazy to stack and restack...
I love your shoess!!! They're so pretty!! :D
Maybe you get something like this:

So you can have twice the number of shoes in the same space! :D
