see i have a prob there is a dresser in my closet so i dont have a place for my shoes...the closet is both mine and my 17 month old's.

That is a tough one. If you can't move the dresser out of your closet into your room, then I have two suggestions. 1. Store your shoes in clear boxes and put them on the highest shelf of your closet. It may be inconvenient but at least they are out of the way and you can see what you have.

2. Create a shoe storage system in your room. You could use a dresser. If you use a dresser, you could put fancy shoes in one drawer, tennis shoes in another, etc. Another way to do it would be to get a standing shoe rack for a closet. Put your shoes on it. Then get fabric and attach it around the sides and front of the rack to cover the shoes. It will look very shabby chic or country.

ok, either that closet is extremely huge or she is really short.

Haha.. A combination. I'm average height and the closet is very tall.

I think it's easier to take everything out first, and then sort it - then you only put back what's left after sorting.
