Re: Shoes.
I keep my winter boots and trainers and ankle boots all in a floor to ceiling open cupboard it has no door but instead I have a heavy patterned door curtain on a rail over the front.
My dog walking trainers and outdoor best trainers are by the back door....My short wellies are in my understairs cupboard. .I don't have lots of pairs as I prefer to keep them to a minimum and what I actually wear on a regular basis. I hate seeing piles of shoes an boots tossed in a messy heap.
I don't own any shoes as such..all either trainers or ankle boots or winter boots....I've just thrown out my only pair of summer sandals as the sole was knackered..so will not buy any sandals now till next year closer to the warmer weather.
