You bought a bookshelf for the boots?

LR: YES. THEY FIT! I ALSO BOUGHT SHOE CUBBIES THAT ARE ALL OPEN SO YOU CAN PUT THEM IN AND PULL ‘EM OUT. SHE CAN ARRANGE THEM DEPENDING ON WHAT SEASON IT IS. WHEN IT’S ON THE FLOOR, THE HIGHER UP THE SHOE, THE MORE CONVENIENT. GENERALLY, THE HEELS AND DRESSIER SHOES ARE ON TOP, THE MORE CASUAL, SNEAKERS, ETC., ON THE BOTTOM.

Besides the canvas hanging shelves, you have canvas drawers.

LR: DRAWERS ARE GOOD FOR UNDERWEAR, THINGS SHE DOESN’T WANT IN THE OPEN. THE SOCKS CAN GO INTO A DRAWER. BUT IT THEY DON’T HAVE A MATE, THEY’VE GOTTA GO DOWN THE BLACK HOLE OF SOCKVILLE. I LABEL EACH OF THE DRAWERS WITH LITTLE CADS: BRAS, UNDERWEAR, PJ’S, TIGHTS, SOCKS, BATHING GEAR.

Your secret weapon is lavender?

LR: CEDAR SACHETS WITH LAVENDER WORK TWO WAYS, AS SOMETHING SCENTED, ESPECIALLY IF SHOES ARE IN THE SAME CLOSET. AND SILVERFISH, WHICH EAT AWAY AT COTTON, HATE LAVENDER. IF YOU DON’T WANT TO CALL THE EXTERMINATOR, USE LAVENDER SACHETS.
