This was a challenge because I didn't want to spend too much but I could never just have my shoes out on an open shelf. Between a very dusty, drafty old house and 4 cats, there is no way it would happen.
But then I found these wonderful, reasonaby-priced, glass-door shelves from Ikea - Bergsbo! These suckers are HUGE and I instantly knew they would make my dream come true.
It took me a few hours each to put them together and they weighed a ton but they were worth it. Now I have two gorgeous displays for all of my favorite pretty shoes. I know I'm showing off but I have to share.
Click on any/all pictures to see BIG!
Cabinet #1 is filled with pinks, blacks, whites, silvers and purples -
Cabinet #2 is red, blues, neutrals, greens and golds -
I have to admit I get a bit giddy and giggly when I walk into the room. Now every morning when I'm getting dressed, it feels like I'm going shopping!

'Now every morning when I'm getting dressed, it feels like I'm going shopping!' Now that must lovely.
They really are beautifully presened and I am uber-jealous of some of the things in your collection! Lucky girl.

All I can really say is "WOW".

What Florie said :)
Do you happen to be a size 6? If so, can you leave your shoes to me in your will?
May I please come live in your shoe closet? It looks like heaven! You seriously have my dream shoe closet! Size 8 by chance :) haha. Love the glass cabinets. Might get these for my slow growing shoe collection- not near the names as yours though.

You have some UNBELIEVABLE shoes.
AHH I want!! I thought my closet was nice. Nothing compared to this! Gorgeous :)
Thanks, ladies!
Faith, there may be a few 6s in there. I typically wear a 5 or 5.5 but sometimes have to try to work a 6 if they don't make them any smaller (and I really really want them!)
: D

Sigh, absolutely beautiful. I want to do that to my shoes someday!
Can I live vicariously through your shoe storage solution, pretty please? A shoe room. Wow. And stocked with such covetable lovelies.
WOW WOW WOW - your collection is AH-MAY-ZING & I totally need to get one (or two) of these display cabinets - this is AWESOME!
I've been wanting to do this for so long. I hate having my shoes stored in clear bins stacked to the ceiling. I never feel like I can get to all my shoes and this is so how I want my collection to look. Great job!
that is such an effing DREAM! I feel like I should say Congrats!
OMG!!! And then some! I have to retweet this to some bloggy shoe friends who will just die to see your shoe closet. Please can I move in??
That is fabulous! I have a shoe closet, but it is nothing like that. And your shoes are beautiful too.
do you have these shelves in a separate room, i mean is there anything else in the room or just shoooooes ? and there did you store the second half ?
WOW...absolutely lovely. I am inspired!
I am so glad you shared! I love it! Were you giggly with joy as you put the shoes in exact order in the case?! Oh such fun!!!
What an inspiration you are Poochie!

LOOKS AMAZING!! Like Mariah Carey's closet!!!!!!
holy moly! you have every single iconic shoe ever! i hope you have those babies insured!
This is quite possibly the biggest shoe gasm of all time. Your shoe room should be a museum. <3
Heaven right there! Gosh! Love all the shoes and how you displayed them. :)

i'm just jealous! it's so amazing!
I just turned green ... oh my goodness, your shoes are divine!!!
Hi it's me again, sometimes I wear 5.5 in heels because of my high arches, esp. Via Spigas. So if you ever decide to sell some, let me know! :)
Wow! Thank you! I always wanted to write in my site something like that. Can I take part of your post to my blog?
living the dream my friend, you a living the dream. shit, my shoes are just in a heap of boxes at the foot of my bed. they looks like pastries and candies, but they're to be worn on your feet! beautiful!
I FINALLY get to comment! haha.
This is spectacular! Can you imagine if we joined forces??
Amazing.
Wooooow... what can one say? Congrats! :)

I love I love I love!!!!
I have to say, those shoes are really pretty and are so organized. That Ikea glass door shelf is indeed a very useful one. My sister who is so in love with shoes also has some a similar shelf for her shoes. She also has lots of them. I do admire how you girls organize things. Maybe this will work for my stuffs, too. Thank you for sharing.
Did you take out a shelf to put clear glass as a shelf?
