Transform Your Shoe Storage Space With A Dollar Tree Solution

Do you always seem to have more shoes than closet space? Then you're probably not one to pass up an opportunity to learn about how to maximize storage space in small places. And what better way to find a handy solution than by visiting Dollar Tree, the one store that's always teeming with an abundance of storage and organization solutions. Take for example this 6-Cube Storage Rack. Just one look at those open shelves and you can see why it makes perfect sense as a shoe storage solution. And at $6 apiece at the time of writing, it checks the box as one of the budget-friendly methods to keep your home organized.

This Dollar Tree rack is an easy-to-assemble shelving unit you can use to turn your chaotic shoe situation into a neat display. Granted, the rack may appear a bit too plain and lacking in character, but that might just be its blessing in disguise. Because of the neutral gray color, it can easily blend in with your home's color scheme and style. Stand the unit in your bedroom, the mudroom, the entryway, or your garage, and instantly secure additional space for your shoe collection that doesn't take up much floor space. After all, it's only about 3 feet tall and 2 feet wide.

In case you're worried you may not have the right tools to assemble this storage rack, don't be. You don't need any tools. The packaging comes with all you need to assemble this storage solution. Setting up the 6-Cube Storage Rack might seem like a daunting task upon seeing all the bits and pieces involved, but it's actually not that complicated. Just lay everything down and take your time to connect the pieces one by one like a puzzle. This is also where the owner's manual comes in handy.  Each cube compartment can hold one pair of shoes. However, if you have more footwear, and extra floor space, increase your storage by buying more of these 6-Cube Storage Racks.

But wait, there's another addition to make this shoe storage hack even better. See the storage bins listed on the packaging of your Dollar Tree 6–Cube Storage Rack? They mention that these come separately. Well, get them too. Just grab the Essentials Collapsible Storage Containers, also found at Dollar Tree at $1.25 each. These can carry your shoes and fit snugly on the individual shelves of your 6-Cube Storage Rack. The idea is that they'll hide your shoes and may fit even more shoes within them without creating visual clutter. If you want even more variety and style, swap the cube bins for pretty woven baskets. 

For something even fancier, paint a piece of wood, then simply place it on top of the Dollar Tree rack. This simple addition allows your rack to double as a console table and that top surface provides extra support for whatever you place on it. Whatever variation you make to this quick and easy decluttering solution for your shoe storage, you can't go wrong.
