I also include my declutter and organizing challenge calendars and guides to help direct you through each area of your home. These guides ensure you get through every nook and cranny and finally get to the other side of clutter … an organized and functional space!

Sandal Organization

Before you start organizing your sandals, I highly suggest editing your collection. You don’t want to purchase a bunch of organizing solutions to contain sandals you’re not going to wear. Here is how to properly organize what you do wear.

Sandal Storage Solutions

Most of the same organizing solutions shared in my previous shoe organizing posts, including sneakers, heels, and flats, are great for organizing sandals as well, like this container, for example (found here):

To maintain the shape of strappier sandals, you can use something like this to insert into your sandals and prop up the straps when stored (found here):

Flip-Flop Organizing Solutions

For your summer flip-flops, here are some organizing solutions that might work for you and your spaces.

You can file your flip-flops into an organizer like this which can be stored on a shelf (found here):

Because flip-flops are quite flat, they can easily be stored on the backs of doors. Here is a super space-saving option which allows you to hang each pair along the hooks (found here):

A simple door shoe organizer is also another perfect space-saving solution (I share more ways to utilize door shoe organizers around your home here.) The best way to store your flip-flops in these is to store the soles together, facing each other to help keep the organizer clean (found here):

You can utilize something like this to store on the back of a garage door, coat closet door, etc. and store each of your family members’ flip-flops in each section along with other summer gear (found here):

Slipper Organizing Solutions

For shoe-free homes, setting up a organized systems in your entryways is essential for keeping shoes and slippers from getting scattered all over the place.

You can use something as simple as a stand-alone slipper rack. Then, each person in your household can bring the shoes they remove, upon entering, into their rooms or wherever you store your shoes while they grab their slippers from this rack (found here):

Or, you can use a rack like this one below which provides shelves to place your shoes onto as you remove them upon entering your home. Then, you can grab your slippers from the hangers on the side (found here):

If you would like to conceal the shoes that are removed in your entryway and the slippers that are stored there, you can use a shoe cabinet like this and designate a section for the shoes that are removed and a section for slippers (found here):

To have a place to store your slippers in your bedroom or bathroom, wherever you remove them before you retire for bed, you can install an organizer like this on a wall or the side of your bed or other piece of furniture (found here):
