The Best Small Entryway Shoe Storage
Get inspired with these 9 super creative entryway shoe storage ideas!
1. Hidden Shoe Storage
To kick start this list of entryway shoe storage ideas, let’s start with this hidden shoe storage entryway idea. I was sick and tired of all our shoes being scattered all over our entryway. So I opted for this super simple and inexpensive shoe storage idea with baskets under our TV console. I already had these baskets, so this turned out to be a budget-friendly solution for me.
And all I did was assign one for the kids and one for us adults and call it a day. Now all my kids and husband have to do is pull out the basket and toss the shoes inside the basket. Easy peasy! Every few days, I have my kids empty their baskets if they start to get too full, but so far, so good. So if you want to hide shoes in the entryway this is a seamless way to do it. 😉
I think I got these baskets at Sam’s Club a while ago. However, you can find similar ones at Home Goods, TJ Max, Target, Amazon, etc.

2. Narrow Entryway Shoe Storage
Narrow entryway shoe storage cabinets are great for small entryways or hallways. So if you have a tiny entryway or a narrow hallway that wouldn’t fit a full-size storage cabinet, this is a great shoe storage solution and one worth trying. Not only will this help get your shoes nicely organized, but it will also keep them hidden, which is a win-win for me

If you prefer to have a bench by your entryway where you can sit to put your shoes on, something like this small entryway shoe storage bench would be genius!

And another idea for even more shoe storage is to add a basket beside the bench for more shoe storage.

6. Entryway Shoe Basket
I love storage and organization ideas that help hide things that are otherwise an eyesore around the house. So if you’re like me and looking for a shoe storage and organization hack that would help keep your shoes organized but stored out of sight, shoe baskets are a great option.
Especially if you want hidden storage but don’t want to go out and buy a whole new furniture piece or don’t have the space for it. You can use one or two large baskets for the entire family or assign a basket per family member. Either way, your shoe will stay stored away nicely and out of sight.

7. Over The Door Shoe Organizer
If you are lucky enough to have a closet near your entryway, an over-the-door shoe organizer might be perfect for your needs.
These over-the-door organizers hold about 12 pairs of shoes. An idea to keep shoes even more organized is to assign slots for each family/house member so that they always have their spots open when they need them. And the shoes don’t get all mixed up. I especially love this idea because most rental homes or apartment closets aren’t functional. The closet shelving is usually lacking, so adding additional storage that won’t cause permanent damage is perfect.

8. Cube Storage Shoe Organizer
Have a big family and looking for shoe storage ideas for large families? Or are you someone who has a lot of shoes? Here’s a great idea that might work for you. Each of these cube organizers holds about 12 pairs of shoes. The best part is you can stack these organizers up vertically if you don’t have horizontal space, as shown in this idea.
So if you need more than 12 shoe slots, you can add another organizer and immediately have space for 24 pairs or more if needed without taking up too much space. Perfect idea for large families with small entryways.

You can use some of the shelves for loose shoes and include baskets to create storage for sandals, slippers, scarves, beanies, glasses, etc. Such an amazing and extremely functional idea for small entryways! And it still looks so put together and organized.
