Wine storage,Okay I saw this picture and the idea was wonderful. It was a large antique style wine rack with built in boxes for the wine bottles- open ones and about 40-45 boxes. It looked so unnique. I am thinking of using the same idea as I have a long narrow passage in my new apartment that could go waste if we didnt use it as a shoe rack. I also want to put a bench there to sit down and remove your shoes.
I saw some contemporary ones at target and walmart, but they dont have that feel What I do like about this one is that it has a drawer on top for socks etc

Let me know what you think about this whole idea.
Our apartment is one 1 BR and about 700 sq feet only and we have about 30-40 pairs of shoes ( I know-vain couple!:-)))

Yes, sounds like a great idea. Very individual. One possible alternative if you find it hard to get hold of a wine rack would be to check out IKEA’s shoe racks – they do quite a range of designs and you might find one which you like just as much as the wine racks.
