Step 1
First, decide where exactly your boots belong. Lining them up by the doorway in the mud room may work for some families but some individuals know that they cannot stand too much clutter. Find your boots a proper and convenient home before attempting to organize them.

Step 2
Next, determine the easiest order of organization for you and your needs. If you have a family's collection of winter boots to organize, who's boots should be closest to the door, for example? If you are looking at your own boots, does an organization pattern from dressy to casual work? Or, do you prefer height organization? Making these decisions in advance will save some frustration later.

Step 3
Look at the space you intend to use for the boots. If you are lucky enough to have some sort of open shoe cupboard, your organizing can be made really simple. Just place the boots in cubbies where they fit and the tall ones can go on top. If you do not have such a shelving system, consider investing in one.

Step 4
If you are dealing with an empty wall, consider installing shelves that suit the size needs of your boots and your own height. Shelves at a proper height can prevent too much bending over in an uncomfortable way to reach your boots. Organizing them at a comfy level for your needs will keep your boots conveniently accessible.

Step 5
Last of all, keep a small stool or chair near your organizing system. Place it near enough to your boots to allow for you to reach them but far enough way to avoid clutter. This way, you will always have a place to sit to put on your boots and lay extra details like your bag or coat while making your selection.
