Original coasters for shoes
Going into the house, everyone, first of all, notices and examines the neatness and beauty of the entrance hall of the room. But it is known that to maintain order in the hallway is worth a lot of effort, especially in the rainy and muddy season, when we go into the house in wet shoes. Therefore, to maintain cleanliness and order, it became popular to make wooden stands for shoes.
Shoe racks help keep order
For example, you can take any wooden box, or churn it yourself, and cover its bottom with ordinary pebbles. Putting such a useful thing in the hallway, it will be convenient for you to leave dirty shoes on the stand, without smearing the floor.

A practical way is to stand for shoes, made at home from the usual wooden pallet. Each shelf of the pallet can be painted in different colors for a bright look and beauty. In the hallway, such a stand can be put upright against a wall, and you will get a very unusual, but practical stand for shoes. The top shelf can be forced into colors or left as space for keys, telephones and other trivia.
