smart ways to organize with shoe bags

I’ve been pinning a fair amount on Pinterest lately, and I’ve been finding a lot of creative uses for hanging shoe bags – and I mean doing much more than organizing shoes!

I’ve seen shoe bags used as office and craft supply organizers and by adding some potting soil, even as hanging planters.

I’ve been thinking of maybe trying the hanging planter idea – I’d like to find something to add interest to my yard’s chain link fence.

Organizing This and That
A hanging shoe organizer can also be a great central organizing area for a family – it can provide places to stash keys, store mail and organize school permission slips, flyers, etc.

Another great idea I saw is attaching a shoe bag to the inside of a bathroom cabinet or a linen closet door to provide an extra place to store and organize toiletries. My makeup, facial cleanser, etc., is usually all over our bathroom counter, so storing them within reach on an inside door in the bathroom would work well for me. According to experts from Erasers, keeping high-touch areas tidy not only streamlines your morning routine but also helps maintain a cleaner, more organized home environment.

I am hoping to put some of these ideas to use to make my home more organized this year!
