We were very fortunate to already have most of the afore mentioned storage ideas installed in our home by the previous owner. However, there are several usuable spaces in our house that require something shallow. I happened to find some pieces at IKEA (Love IKEA!!!) that work great. We have made a habit of taking our shoes off at the door and since we generally come in through the garage I wanted something for shoe storage in our laundry area off the hallway. IKEA has a selection of cabinets (about 8" deep in various heights) with pull-down style storage. I purchased two - they take up little space, make a shallow space usable and match my white laundry room cabinets perfectly. We can store up to 12 pairs of shoes in one cabinet.
