Boot Storage DIY

This was a prototype that my hubby and I came up with to store my boots. It is not pretty but does the trick! Made with things we already had around the workshop: 2" diameter PVC pipes, dowel rod (cut in 4" pieces for support), heavy block wood scraps and a piece of carpet on the bottom (optional) for it to slide in my closet.


How we made this: (1) Cut circles in the block of wood with a spade bit (you can see this one above we put too many holes in the wood - the boots would not fit, too close together). Cut the holes 2" so that your PVC pipe will fit snug inside of it - over the dowel rod.

(2) Put in a 4 inch long dowel rod, 2" or less, and fasten it to the base board with screws to the bottom of the board.

(3) Cut PVC pipes about 17" , slid them over top of the dowel rods and attach them to the dowel rods with sheet rock screws on the sides.

(4) Then just spray painted them, but you can leave them white.

(5) We added carpet to bottom of each to slide easier on the wood floor in my closet.
