Baby It's Genius!

When you live in Upstate New York and have a little shoe fetish, you own a lot of tall boots, which poses a bit of a closet dilemma because they never seem to stand up straight.

.

All you Southern gals might not have this problem because I imagine you own more flip flops and fancy sandals.  At least that's what I'd be wearing if I lived in the South :-)

But anyway, my closet came to look like this, with boots flopping all over.

So somewhere along the way, I read about this nifty little trick that has brought my boots to standing position.

You know all those magazines you have laying around your house?

You know, like LAST year's Pottery Barn Kids that I just can't throw away because it has some inspiration images I like. . .

Or my favorite work out magazine of all time, Oxygen.  I never throw out an issue because I like to look back on the work outs when I'm bored of the same old work out routine.

First, roll up the magazine.

And then stick it inside your boot.

And there you have it!  Boots that stand up tall in your closet.

No more falling over looking sloppy. 

I  hope this little trick brings you as much happiness as it has brought me.

Do you have any little tips that bring you happiness?  Do share!

Maybe I'll feature it in an upcoming "Baby It's Genius" post!
