A couple of years ago I bought my first "lacquered steel pine cones" boot tray for our impossibly messy garage. My husband decided that it was too girly to put his garden work shoes & boots on it, I continued to use it diligently for my boots. Then a few weeks ago friends marveled over the tray as a great organizer for them and viola suddenly all my husband's boots/shoes were nicely stored. Unfortunately these size 14 boots take too much space so I have ordered another one. These tray are sturdy, look great and are easy to clean. I recommend them even if your garage looks deplorable. They give you a feeling of a good start on organizing.................
