?Take a wooden board about 1/2 inch thick and six inches wide to serve as the wider bottom shelf and a board 1/2 inch thick and three inches wide to create the shorter top shelf. Cut the length to fit the site where the rack is going to go. If you desire, you can paint or stain the wood and finish with polyurethane, or simply leave it natural. Attach L brackets to the boards first using screws, then use the bracketed boards to mark the walls for where to drill holes, making sure you leave enough space between the top and bottom shelf to hold your tallest shoes. Last, use sleeve type drywall anchors to drill the L brackets into your wall. If you have a lot of shoes and a lot of space, consider adding a third or fourth shelf, as needed.
This shoe organizer doubles as a bench and miscellaneous storage and is handy for entryways or mudrooms. Take two matching nightstands at least 12 inches deep and install a metal corner brace on each of them 24 inches above the floor, mounted parallel to the top of the nightstands. Continue with two more metal corner braces, mounted seven inches lower and at a slight downward angle (approximately 30 degrees). Repeat this step one more time with the two braces mounted another seven inches down and at the same downward angle. Next, place the two nightstands four feet apart with the braces toward each other and mount a piece of stair tread or plywood, three total, one on each of the brace pairs. Fasten the stair tread pieces with wood screws to the braces. The top board should be flat for seating and the bottom two angled to hold the shoes. Note that if you’re not able to angle the brackets, you can simply have three parallel flat boards. If desired, you can stain or paint the pieces to match the nightstands or use a contrasting finish.
