This project was born out of the need to reclaim some space in our apartment and our section of the basment.
Currently our dirty shoes and boots take up a lot of space in the hallway or on shelves that are better suited holding other things.
Acknowledgements
Thanks to Ciaran, Lukas, Keno and Johannes for the conversations and suggesting different approaches that might be best for this project. See below for how it went.
The Process
Inspiration
"Honey, all of your shoes that you brough with you are taking up too much space on my shelves. I had an idea, maybe we get a shoe rack to put in the basement. Oh and since you are not working yet would you want to make one? You could use up that material that was left over after you fixed that other thing! I think something "simple" like my parents have in the hallway would be perfect!"
