Oh what fun!

Oh what fun!


If you're like us, your closet/spare bedroom can pass as a small shoe department. Okay, a cluttered small shoe department. So why not organize them in Ferris wheel-like storage? It's way more fun than boring shelves and can turn your house into a mini-carnival ...

Designed by Danilo Torro of Rakku Designs ("rack" in Japanese), this "Shoe Wheel" can hold up to thirty pairs, depending on the style.

Shoes are secured with an elastic band and protected by clear vinyl panels on the sides. And in case you haven't figured it out yet, to select a pair of kicks, just rotate the wheel.

The wheel is about two and half feet tall and about a foot wide so it can fit in limited closet space, if necessary. If pink doesn't tickle you, it also comes in silver, black and white. Love it? You can grab one for $65 on the Rakku website. While there, check out the mini shoe pod (for less storage) and "Rakkido" for kids sizes.
