Solution to Shoe Storage

School starts next week (picture me doing the butter churn happy dance as I say this to you) and for me that means getting organized for smooth start to the year. I had to tackle the shoe problem. The kids shoes are kept by the back door in the makeshift mud room in this...
but unfortunately there is this...
serious overflow which is a hazard when you walk in the door
 I searched for some ideas and found this,
I thought this would be perfect and I even had the buckets!
They were pink playroom cast offs and would have looked like this...
Not going to work, so I spray painted them green...
added these awesome labels that are a free printable from Better Homes and Gardens 
(which is where the inspiration picture is from)
and put them in id badge holders (easier than laminating) and tied them onto the buckets

this is how it turned out...


put some solutions to shoe storage in your back pocket...
