I know this may seem simple to some, but for some reason it has taken me FOR-E-VER to implement this silly little idea in my household. The foyer (if you can call a 5x5 area that) and accompanying steps are not a storage spot for shoes. I am no saint, I leave mine there too, but I have had it and put my foot down. Last night I gave my son a choice to put his shoes in the basket or go to his room. He dutifully obliged. I love this basket. It's Target of course, Smith and Hawken. And you can write your own label in chalk. I plan to go through the basket as it fills up and place the shoes in their respective closets. My plan is working like butta. If this is a problem that plagues you as well, just get on it already. One by one my neurosis are being effortlessly lifted away. On to the next..........TTFN!
