Hip Tip : Shoe Rack

Ladies ~  Do you wish you could get your high heel shoes off the floor and organized?    Showcase those stylish shoes with a shoe rack on the wall.

This picture is my inspiration, but you can tweak this project to match your own personality and style.

My twist :   I would paint the wall with a bright color and an antique finish so that the soles of the shoes don't mess up white paint!  (what was martha thinking here?!?! )
Go bold with something bright,  and then use a antique glaze to add some variety.

While you are at it.... add a few cup hooks to the wall to hang necklaces, scarves and jewelry. 

Have fun!  It's your house and you can decorate and organize any way that makes you happy.

You can do this!

Color & Character



via Domino.

Old homes in East Nashville often have these little cubies.
I painted a hallway in my house on Riverside Drive similar to this. I went with a deep red and hung frames all over the hallway walls. Its really easy.
You can do this!
