I, like many shoe obsessed women have constant issues trying to store my shoes, I have done photos on boxes, clear shoe boxes, shoe racks, shoe cabinets, hanging storage, over door storage, under bed storage....you get the picture.
Today after many many years of searching I think I have found the perfect solution; shoe booths! (http://www.babooshoe.com/products.asp?cID=4)
The large one holds 55 pairs of shoes and the small one 25, they have interior lights (with a remote control, for what purpose I'm not exactly sure), they have movable shelves for boots and bags and they aren't hideously ugly! Unfortunately, just when I went to click purchase I saw the exorbitant price tag, I could buy a beautiful bag for the price of a shoe booth.
My question is...
Is the perfect shoe storage solution worth it?
I was about to comment and say YES YES YES. The solution I have been looking for but for that price I'd say (sadly) forget it.
ReplyDeleteI know, isn't it exorbitant!
ReplyDeleteI think it would be better just to have one made
I looooooooove the look of these. But for that amount of money i think i will just stick to my bookshelf idea :p But i would really really love to get myself 2 of the large ones in white!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI think it's absolutely worth the money. If you're willing to spend close to $2000 on a handbag (or pair of shoes) shouldn't you spend that much on something that will protect them along with any other items you own with that value?!
ReplyDeleteI wish these had been around when I built my house a year ago as I had a shoe rack built in and it cost me $3500!!! It's not nearly as nice as these!
I'm making my sister buy one! :)
I love this storage solution, but I don't like the price... when I showed my BF, he asked if it was climate controlled (I mean that's what you would expect!). I recently bought some bookcases (with doors) for all my shoes. I will be posting on my blog soon.
ReplyDeleteI keep going back and forth on it, my boyfriend told me I was "ridiculous" and he is more flippant with designer purchases than I am. But it's so hard to find anything that comes close to this.
ReplyDeleteI am going to be keeping an eye out CTSB, I need some DIY shoe booth inspiration
what's wrong with regular shoe racks? the ones i have are cheap ($30) and don't take up much room at all :)
ReplyDeleteyou are better off buying a bag than an expensive shoe rack!
