A mother of three (pictured) has shared a simple hack that has completely transformed the way she and her family store their shoes.
Instead of placing the flats on the IKEA shoe rack, Joanne places a pair of shoes inside the bars.
“Show me the trick you randomly saw one day that is now an unconscious standard practice in your life,” the mother posted on TikTok.
“I’m really surprised by how many people don’t know you can do this.”
She said her old method of putting the shoes on top never worked because “they ended up in a bunch.”
She believes that this method makes it difficult to find the shoes you’re looking for and prevents you from putting as many shoes as you want on the rack.
“It’s easier for kids when they’re trying to find their shoes so they don’t have to rummage around. They’re just there in a line and they can see them,” she said of the hack.
However, he acknowledged that some people may not like it, since you can see the soles of the shoes.
Advised to turn the shoes in the opposite direction to prevent people from seeing the bottom of the shoe.
For shoes like boots that don’t fit in the slots, Joanne recommends placing them to the side of the rack in a less visible area.
The mother was very surprised with the reaction to the video because she thought her method was known.
“I didn’t actually think it was a tip because I thought everyone did it this way,” he admitted.
‘Surely I’m not the only person who never thought of putting shoes like that on the rack. A new life hack,” said one woman.
‘Wait, I just threw this shelf away because I didn’t have enough shoes,’ wrote another.
“I’m going to wear this tomorrow when I go to my daughters she has one of these racks and I’m going to rearrange all her shoes,” another commented.
However, some moms said they had been using the shelf like this for years.
“This is how it should be used,” said one woman.
