Shoe storage chest

Nice storage chest.

Looks nice but I’m not sure I agree with the design. Don’t you have to lean over at a strange angle or have really long arms to avoid stepping on the front cover in order to reach your shoes?.......especially the ones in the middle/bottom cubbie.

Very nice build. I have never seen it done this way.

Mike,
The original thought I had was to mount the shoe rack to the door itself so that the shoes would drop in vertically to the bins with the door opening 30~45 degrees. As I got going on the project, it became clear that I could accommodate more shoes with this configuration so I gave the wife the choice to which she would prefer. I wasn’t surprised when she went with the version that would allow for more shoes. :-)

Very useful project that turned out extremely pretty.
