I started by assessing the situation. With all the different types of shoes (at varying degrees of cleanliness), it became clear that we would need some storage method that kept the pairs separate from one another but didn't take up too much space.
Also, if I could manage it, something white would blend into the space best.
Have a question about this project?
How much do those pipes cost?
Try a Habitat for Humanity store if there is one near you. Sometime they have pipe.
It looks like you already had a perfectly fine organizer....but no one used it. How will this be different?
She said that she wanted to separate clean and dirty shoes
Great idea that I'm definitely going try. I'd like to know if it can be painted and what kind would you suggest?
Krylon for plastic won't chip on plastic. Give it a very light sand before spray painting. Of course you know to use outside or a well ventilated shop.
