I'm thinking about revising my guidelines to require two dolls to leave for every one doll coming in. Like that will happen!
We've had a lot of emergencies in our family over the past few months, so I've not been able to photograph, list, or sell many dolls. (Isn't it funny how I find the time to troll e-bay and doll websites to purchase dolls though? Hmmm? A thought to ponder for about half a second!)
I recently purchased a cosmetic organizer at Tuesday Morning for $5.99. They are quite common. I believe they are for lipsticks or small bottles of nail polish. The compartments aren't very large, but they are just big enough to comfortably display a pair of doll shoes!
I don't want my doll shoes falling out all over the place when I pick this little gem up, so I used 1/2 a glue spot on the sole of each shoe. I found these in the craft department of Walmart. They were fairly inexpensive (less than $5). The glue spot hold the shoe in place. (I also found out they help a doll hold a pose on a stand!)
This is how it looks when you set it up! Voila!
It's an easy way to display 15 pairs of shoes that can be easily seen and used! You can even lay the organizers flat in a drawer if you prefer!
I know this is just a tiny, baby step ... but even baby steps feel very good!

Wow--that looks amazing! My shoes are in Plano boxes with snap closure; not as cute looking but better than baggies. I need to make a trip to Tuesday Morning.
I want to organize my collection this year too...it's been partially done previously but not anywhere near finished. I have so many unopened items, mostly fashions, from this past year or so.
