There are plenty of pretty original solutions How to make a shoe rack with your own hands from scrap materials. These can be pieces of wood, plywood, metal, plastic, fabric. Sections of linoleum, laminate, and plastic water pipes are also used. When placing outdoor boots, the material must be moisture-resistant so as not to suffer from contamination and frequent cleaning.

  • hacksaw, chainsaw;
  • hammer;
  • grinder with cutting wheel;
  • nails, screws;

From wooden planks

Scheme of a wooden shoe rack

For this simple project it is necessary to prepare boards 1.5-2 cm thick. Pine is good - its wood is easy to process and is durable. There will be only six parts, the work is performed in the following sequence.

  1. In accordance with the measurements taken, the dimensions of the frame are calculated and a drawing is made.
  2. Sawed out side walls required size (for a specific project, the height is about 80 cm).
  3. Cross bars are made - four pieces, about 60 cm long.
  4. The support bars that support the crossbars are cut out.
  5. All surfaces are sanded until smooth.
  6. The bars are attached to the main fragments respectively to each other.
  7. Boards are laid on the bars, the bottom and top are secured using wood glue, metal corners- you will get the frame of the rack.

  2. A rectangular panel is sewn from dense fabric that can withstand washing well. The panel is stretched onto the frame.
  3. Rows of pockets are sewn onto the fabric. Pockets should be tight and easy to clean. Will do soft plastic, thin rubber, book covers.

A lightweight portable shelf is well suited for storing summer sandals and sneakers, but will not withstand heavy winter and autumn shoes, from which contaminated moisture drains.

Fabric pockets are perfect for storing slippers, ballet shoes and children's shoes.

Carousel

Multi-level shelf with rotating shoe racks

This option is suitable for installation in the hallway or in a closet. A round shelf with spacious compartments makes it possible to quickly find the right pair of shoes - you just need to turn it around its axis. You can make such a shelf from wood, chipboard, plastic and metal rod.

  1. In accordance with the dimensions of the product, circles of the stand of the required diameter are cut out. A hole is made in the center for the rod.
  2. Wheels or a turning mechanism on bearings are attached to the bottom of the lower circle.
  3. Separators - quadrangular-shaped blanks - are installed vertically on the circle.
  4. The second circle is placed on top and secured. The uppermost circle is fixed to the rod using a bolt and washer.
  5. Fastening is done using fittings (metal corners).

To rotate, either a support mechanism is used, or a double bottom is made - a lower stable layer and the first shelf located above it. A special gasket made of disks of smaller diameter will reduce friction between the bottom and the first tier.

The rotating shelf can be mounted in any suitable cabinet

Corner

Drawing of a homemade corner shelf in the hallway

The most economical and convenient for use in non- large hallways is a corner bookcase.

Stages of work:

  1. cut out required quantity crossbars - triangular or semicircular;
  2. using fittings, attach them to the sidewalls - these can be either solid fragments of wood, plastic, cardboard, forming a corner, or individual vertical slats.

A corner bookcase can have enough greater height, and its triangular compartments accommodate multiple pairs of boots without taking away any functional space

An unusual option would be to use plastic pipes, cut in a certain way and connected with glue. The original design, which has a stylish look, looks good in modern interiors.


The design of water pipes is convenient because it is easy to make any width and height and vary them. A compact shelf made from sections will fit into the smallest space.

Manufacturing.

  1. Boxes are being selected same size two types - large ones for the frame, smaller ones for the drawers.
  2. The lids of the boxes are carefully cut off or sealed. Large boxes are secured with tape into a rack.
  3. Smaller boxes have a rectangular hole cut in the front wall.
  4. Boxes are inserted into cells.

The cut parts of the lids are used to make internal partitions, compartments for small items. Cardboard easily absorbs water; it is recommended to treat all boxes with moisture-resistant paint or varnish.

Decoration

Depending on the material of manufacture, the means of decoration will differ. Decorating wooden products will require sanding with sandpaper, processing with wood varnish, various stains, and wood paint. A wooden structure will last much longer if it is treated with a moisture-proof impregnation with an antiseptic - this will protect against mold and mildew. Metal and plastic structures Quick-drying paint or self-adhesive film with a decorative pattern are suitable. Cardboard must be protected from moisture with special impregnation. The shoe rack can be painted in any color according to overall design interior The design is often completed by applying a design or ornament using paint. Wooden products often decorated with carvings, a burned-out image made using a special device.

Caring for shoes piled up is problematic. To prevent boots from getting dirty, suffering from dampness and dust, you need to install. The easiest way is to purchase ready-made solution, but this is not always possible.

Here we will look at an alternative route - making not an easy one, but making shoe racks with your own hands. We have to select tools and materials, decide on the dimensions and internal structure. At the end you will find diagrams, drawings and photographs.

The amount of material and set of tools will depend on the chosen design. To make a wooden cabinet you will need the following tools:

  • drills (confirmed, 5 or 8 millimeters);
  • tape measure (square, ruler) and pencil;
  • hammer;
  • screwdriver (can be replaced with a drill);
  • 4mm hex wrench;
  • awl;
  • Forstner drill;
  • template (its task is to mark for drilling).

Of course, if you are going to make a cardboard shoe rack, the set will be different. But more on that a little later.

Do you want a more durable and cheaper shoe rack? Use laminated chipboard sheets as the material. In addition, you will need accessories:

  • pens;
  • euroscrews;
  • shoe rack mechanism (if provided);
  • screws;
  • decorative supports (you can do without them, but with supports the structure will look more solid).

For the carousel shelf you will need metal pins (round shelves are attached to them) and a vertical pin. Special tools(except for a drill) you won’t need it at all. Full list materials for the “carousel” looks like this:

  • round pins (holders);
  • fiberboard disks;
  • plastic tips;
  • steel tube;
  • metal corners;
  • screws (plus lock washers for them);
  • half a liter of primer;
  • machine screws (together with nuts and washers);
  • acrylic paint.

More comfortable solutions are also possible (including leather upholstery). Read about this below, as well as about the sizes of shoe racks you create with your own hands.

Product dimensions

The dimensions of the product depend on the size of the hallway and the needs of the owner. For single people, a small locker nestled in will be enough, but a family of 3-4 people needs a full-fledged shoe rack designed for 20-30 pairs. Store-bought models often turn out to be made in China, whose inhabitants have a strange penchant for miniaturization.

Shoe racks can also be wide. It is difficult to make a cabinet or make one yourself, so it is better to limit yourself to a simple cabinet. The product requirements are:

  • functionality;
  • ergonomics;
  • good ventilation;
  • aesthetics;
  • capacity.

A minimalist shoe drying rack does not require a lot of space. The wall-mounted model is quite small-sized and simple. The parameters can be as follows:

  • facades (shaped MDF boards or STRAIGHT chipboards) - 119.5x44.7 centimeters;
  • sidewalls (standard furniture panels) - 118.4x32 centimeters;
  • back wall (thin hardboard) - 119.5x89.5 cm;
  • drawers (can be purchased at furniture stores) - 86.8x10.

There are also more compact solutions. Most of them are mounted on the hallway wall or placed inside a wardrobe (“carousel”). The dimensions of such structures are much smaller.

To choose the ideal option for your hallway, we recommend using special design programs— you can download them and install them on your computer. There are also ready-made projects, including diagrams, drawings and detailed tables with lists of parts.

How to make a shoe rack yourself

There are different types homemade shoe designs that allow you to optimize the hallway space. Some of the solutions are quite complex - for example, a carousel shoe rack. We will not follow the path of complexity and will deal with the simplest shoe cabinet designs made from cardboard and wood.

Let's look at an example hand assembled narrow shoe rack for a bachelor's apartment. This design is designed for a small number of pairs of shoes, and during assembly you will need a drill, a hacksaw and a screwdriver. Here is a list of materials you will need:

  • moisture-resistant plywood (five sheets of 12 mm thickness);
  • long shoe brushes (the quantity depends on the length of the shoe rack, the bristles should be stiff);
  • wood screws;
  • spikes (6 pieces, 6 mm each);
  • acrylic paint;
  • construction adhesive (for wood);
  • brush;
  • transparent moisture-resistant varnish;
  • dowels

The shelf can be painted with gouache or acrylic - it doesn’t matter. The brushes here serve as shoe holders. The assembly order is as follows:

  1. The block with brushes is assembled. Through holes (6 pieces) are drilled in the plywood edge.
  2. Apply glue to the spikes and insert them into the resulting holes.
  3. Similar “holes” are made in plywood C, which is connected to sheet B. You can press the parts with clamps - then the glue will set faster.
  4. Element D is attached to an existing structure.
  5. The handles of the brushes are cut off (you can buy brushes without handles - it will be cheaper).
  6. A pair of through holes are drilled into the brushes, after which they are fastened along the entire length of the structure (a centimeter from the edge) using short self-tapping screws.
  7. Unused parts A and E are drilled.
  8. All shelf fragments are fastened with self-tapping screws.
  9. The penultimate touch is painting the shoe rack. You can involve little family members in the process. Decoupage and other creative experiments are welcome.
  10. The hallway wall is being drilled. Dowels are installed and the shelf is hung.

We have also prepared several for you useful videos who will teach you how to create shoe racks with your own hands.

Narrow shoe racks - best solution for small hallways? If you don't believe me, watch the following video:

The following video will also tell you how to assemble a shoe rack with your own hands:

Do you want a shoe rack for more comfortable removal of boots? Then the following video will definitely be useful to you:

You can create hanging and floor-standing shoe racks with your own hands from cardboard. The hanging shelf is made of thick, high-strength cardboard; it can be used to store demi-season pairs of shoes. You will need an unnecessary box (it’s easy to ask for one in stores) and other things:

  • furniture knife (can be replaced with large scissors);
  • wood glue;
  • large tape;
  • ruler and pencil;
  • stapler (the staples for it should be large in size).

The cardboard is laid out on flat surface, after which you divide it (using a pencil) into several rectangular sections. The height will be 30 centimeters, and the length will be comparable to the width of the cardboard. The rectangle is divided in half and bent - the side walls must be hammered in equal triangles(the tops will look down).

By bending the rectangles, you form boxes. Cover their edges with tape to protect them from moisture. The drawers are inserted into the grooves of the “neighbors” and secured with wood glue - this is how you get a single structure. Attach hooks on top and secure the product to the wall.

A floor-standing shoe rack is formed in a similar way, but it is not attached to the wall.

The disadvantage of this solution is its extreme instability. Cardboard is a lightweight material, so floor shoe racks can be knocked over by hitting the edge of a coat.

Cardboard shoe rack

Made of wood

Using wood and metal strips as the main components, you can build a fairly stable shoe rack that deserves its place in the hallway. You can save money by replacing wood with chipboard or fiberboard. The thickness of the sheets should be about one and a half centimeters.

You will also need special strips made from stainless steel. The shape of the planks is cylindrical. In total you need to get eight of these parts.

Please note: the cross-sectional diameter of the planks is two centimeters. Fasteners and clamps will also be useful to you (flanges and screws). Here is a list of tools for making it yourself:

  • pencil and ruler;
  • screwdriver;
  • grinding machine;
  • jigsaw;
  • nails;
  • compass;
  • hammer.

So, how to make a shoe cabinet out of wood with your own hands? The process begins by cutting out the back and sides. Usually the height of the shoe rack is arbitrary, and the width is 23 centimeters. This will allow you to make a two-level shoe rack.

The back wall is cut out at the very beginning - it will consist of a pair of thin strips. The width of the shelf should be 20 centimeters. After cutting out the fragment with a jigsaw, you need to sand the edges and work on the side walls.

First you need to mark a couple of rectangles of the same type. Use a pencil, compass and ruler to mark the front roundings. The rounds are cut out with a jigsaw, then the walls are sanded and fastened into a single section.

The final assembly of the shoe rack with your own hands. Here's the procedure:

  1. The flange attachment points are marked.
  2. The side walls are fastened together using planks.
  3. The rear walls are nailed to the back side (end) of the sides.

If desired, the scheme can be complicated. As an option, replace the laminated chipboard with wood and upholster top part skin.

The guest's acquaintance with the apartment begins in the hallway. Therefore, the owners are trying to make this room more comfortable. Often, the hallway is a small room where you need to compactly place a lot of clothes and shoes. Here comes to the aid of the owners shoe rack, which will fit perfectly even V small hallway. The main thing is that it is the right size, selected based on the square footage of the room, the number of people living and visiting. A correctly selected shoe shoe helps to improve the space and preserve appearance shoes, protecting from dust, light and deformation.

A galosh for storing shoes is very necessary so as not to bring dirt into the house

The history of the appearance of galoshes and shoe boots

There are two theories about the origin of galoshes.

According to the first version, rubber shoes, called galoshes, were invented by the Indians to protect their feet during rain. Subsequently, they invented a stand for protecting and storing galoshes.

Galoshes great option shoes in the rain

The second version of the appearance of rubber safety boots says that this product was invented by an Englishman who wanted to protect expensive leather shoes from dirt. When the invention gained popularity, cabinets and racks for compact placement and storage of galoshes.

Wooden shoe shoe with shelves for each shoe

Many people are interested in how to correctly pronounce galoshes or overshoes? It turns out that both words are allowed and considered correct in the Russian language.

What should you consider when buying a shoe shoe?

In order for the purchased shoe shoe to become a reliable assistant in the difficult task of storing shoes and to perfectly complement the interior of the hallway, it is necessary to decide on the color and size before purchasing. And it’s better to do this at home, so that later when purchasing you don’t have to wonder whether this cabinet will fit into that corner. And you will decide on the appearance in the store, looking at the huge assortment of shoe boots on offer.

A few general tips that you should definitely take note of before purchasing a shoe shoe.

  1. If the hallway is dark, then a light-colored shoe rack will make the room brighter and add light.
  2. For big family It’s better to look for a spacious shoe storage device. If you choose a shoe shoe of the wrong size, it will take up space and there will be nowhere to place your shoes.
  3. IN long hallway It is better to choose a narrow shoe cabinet, and increase the storage space due to the height. It needs to be secured to the wall, otherwise the weight of the folded shoes will outweigh it.
  4. For small room You may consider purchasing a cabinet or bookcase with wheels so that it can be easily moved, freeing up space for passage.
  5. If the size of the hallway does not allow you to place a large closet for the whole family, then it is better to purchase a small bedside table and use it to store shoes for the season, and put the rest of the shoes in another place.

For big seven it is better to buy a large shoe shoe

Advice: if you recycle old, torn, unnecessary, tight shoes that are kept just in case, you will have much more free space in your shoe box.

What material is the shoe shoe suitable for the hallway?

When choosing a shoe stand, the first thing you should do is evaluate the material from which it is made. The lighter and more practical the shoe shoe, the longer it will last and the easier it is to keep it clean.

  • Shoe shoe made from chipboard is the most inexpensive option. A product made from this material is lightweight and does not take up much space. Ideal option for a small hallway. The only negative is that when wet, chipboard can crack, peel and lose its appearance.
  • Natural stand wood will do for a spacious hallway. Wooden shoe racks are massive and durable. This piece of furniture will add luxury to the room. But the tree has big drawback- it absorbs moisture, so you will have to store dry shoes on a wooden shelf or treat the surface special composition for protection against moisture.
  • A plastic shoe rack is the most inexpensive option for a shoe stand. It is practical, does not absorb moisture and is easy to clean. The only disadvantage of plastic is fragility.
  • Glass shoe stand. Original, nice solution for the hallway, but absolutely not practical. Glass will have to be washed and polished frequently to maintain its shine and attractive appearance. A galosh made of thin glass will be fragile, while a shoe made of thick glass will be massive and difficult to move.

  • A metal shoe rack will last a long time, but it will have to be periodically tinted to protect the metal from corrosion and rust. And if the sheet from which the shoe cabinet is made is thin, then it is easy to deform.
  • The wicker shoe shoe will become wonderful decoration any hallway. It is quite light and provides good ventilation, which has a beneficial effect on shoe storage.
  • Galoshka made of stone and brick. Expensive looking shoe stand. It is quite rare. Suitable for large hallways. Very massive. Brick overshoes are used where the interior of the room allows, for example, next to brick wall or as an extension of a brick ledge. Brick shoe racks are not sold in stores; they are usually handmade to order.

The metal shoe shoe is very durable

Varieties of shoe racks for hallways

In furniture stores you can choose a shoe shoe to suit every taste, taking into account preferences and wishes.

Tip: if you couldn’t find a shoe shoe in the store the right size, then can be made to order. Made according to the customer’s measurements and preferences, it will fit perfectly into the interior and will not clutter up the space.

Devices for storing shoes are available in the form of chests of drawers, cabinets, pencil cases, cabinets, drawers, and hanging structures.

Hanging galoshes save space

What types of shoe boots are most convenient?

  • Closet. It may seem strange to some to store shoes in a closet, but if the family is large, then this is the most suitable solution in this case. Winter high boots and roller skates, not just sneakers and sandals, can easily fit into the closet. Although this storage system has a number of disadvantages, it is quite bulky, not suitable for a small hallway, and it is quite difficult to get shoes from the top shelves.
  • Dresser. Storing shoes in a chest of drawers is quite problematic. Despite all its impressiveness, it won’t fit many shoes, shoes and boots, but it will take up plenty of space in the hallway. In addition, in small room, the chest of drawers will simply not be appropriate.
  • Pencil case. Putting shoes in a pencil case is of course convenient, but if you look at it from the point of view of aesthetics, then the shoes, when long-term storage, get dusty, and such a design will not be able to hide your old favorite boots or worn-out slippers. It is more suitable for temporary storage of seasonal shoes. And on long term It’s better to put your shoes not in open form, but in boxes.
  • Whatnot. Convenient, lightweight, does not take up much space, suitable for a small hallway, small family and for storage summer shoes.

Shoe rack can be high, as a locker

Galoshnitsa - whatnot can be very light in design

  • Cabinets and small drawers. Very comfortable, but you won’t be able to store a lot of boots in them. The cabinets are suitable for use as seats that are comfortable to put on your shoes.
  • Suspended structures. Such devices are usually attached to a wall or door, are compact, take up little space, and are suitable for storing light summer shoes. It is worth noting that slippers hanging on the wall are not suitable for every interior.
  • Shelves. A shelf shoe storage system is more appropriate for a dressing room than for a hallway, because shoes placed on shelves will resemble racks in a store, depriving the room home comfort. If there are one or two shelves, then they will look good under a coat rack.

How to make a shoe shoe shoe with your own hands?

If you couldn’t find your dream shoe shoe in the store, you can build one from improvised materials. Such an original and beautiful product will fill your home with warmth and comfort. Anything in the house can be used as a material for production, the main thing is to use your imagination; bottles, cardboard, plywood, leftover pipes, leather, foam rubber and boards will do.

Shoes can be made from scrap materials

A galosh can be made from old fruit boxes

Let's look at a few examples of making overshoes with your own hands

  • If you bend the cardboard into a triangle and secure it with tape in the form of a slide, you will get a beautiful and roomy shoe shoe. Even a child can handle this job. This shelf has two disadvantages:
  • For those who know wood carving, it will not be difficult to make a carved cabinet that is not inferior in design to the purchased one. Carved benches with a compartment for shoes look beautiful in the hallway.
  • You can use buckets to store shoes, paint them and place them on shelves or under a bench. Old shopping bags are also suitable for this purpose.
  • Old wooden boxes can be painted, mounted on the wall as shelves and placed in them for shoes.
  • Light enough to tip over easily
  • may get wet, use a shoe shoe for dry shoes.
  • From the remains of the pipe and plastic bottles turn out good places for storage if they are connected and mounted on the wall. Bottles must first have their necks cut off.
  • Boxes of various sizes are also suitable for storing shoes, the main thing is to decorate them beautifully and place them tastefully.

Galoshka made of cardboard in the form of triangles

If the family has small child, then in the new shoe shoe it is necessary to allocate a cabinet, drawer or shelf for his shoes. You just need to do this in a place from which the baby can easily, easily and safely get the shoes. Together with your child, you can decorate the shelf with an inscription or appliqué, and while working, tell the child that sandals should be placed here after a walk. This will help teach your baby order.

The main thing when purchasing a shoe shoe is to remember that it is needed for convenience, not for beauty, and there should be enough space in it to be enough for the shoes of all family members. Then we can safely say that a necessary and useful thing has been acquired.

Galoshnitsa in the hallway

Shoe rack for the hallway 51 photo ideas:














Here, I’m sharing my impressions of making a folding shoe rack for the hallway. I purchased the accessories for 50 rubles. per set. But I had to tinker with the rest... I'll tell you the story of its creation.

Mechanism folding shoe racks new for me, so I immediately went to the Internet to look for additive diagrams (looking ahead, I will say that I still found a normal additive, but this was after the product was manufactured, and therefore this will be discussed in a separate article). We weren't able to dig up anything particularly meaningful. First I found this diagram. And I was happy...

But I still had a problem with the calculations, so the search continued and I found this file" " . Here I completely relaxed and, rubbing my hands, did not compare both of these schemes. I stupidly took the dimensions, put together a project based on them, adjusted the dimensions to the required room and sent them to cutting. As practice has shown, I got excited.

I’ll immediately make a reservation that in the posted project, as well as in the detailing, the dimensions have already been corrected.

Project details attached

Part name Length Edge Width Edge Qty
Retractable facade 16 mm 156 = = 464 = = 1
Folding facade 16 mm 371 = = 464 = = 2
16 mm post 940 - - 292 2
drawer front/back 16 mm 98 410 - - 2
drawer side 16 mm 98 250 - - 2
Tsarga 16 mm 468 = = 120 1
Horizons 16 mm 500 - - 292 = = 2
Detail under the fronts 16 mm 468 - - 23 1
shoe rack 10 mm 453 = = 86 2
shoe rack 10 mm 453 = = 136 4
Drawer bottom fiberboard 442 250 1
fiberboard back wall 484 956 1

The edge used is 0.4 mm. If you change by 2 mm, you will definitely need to narrow the facades.
The back wall is made “In the groove”, if you are going to make an invoice, you need to expand it in each direction by 16 mm.

So, the parts are sawed and piled up. We select the racks from them and begin the additive. Most important point. There is no way to make a mistake here, because closing 20 mm holes later will be problematic. We start marking from the lower front corner of the rack. According to the filler pattern, I marked the hole for the axle.

23 mm is a part under the facade so that the mechanism does not rest against the bottom. 7 mm - gap. Another 7 mm is an empirical value that is on the diagram, but its size is not labeled. I took 2 mm from the diagram, 44 was obtained by adding 28 mm from the diagram to the thickness of the facade of 16 mm.

In the resulting location, I drilled a 20 mm blind hole with a depth of 10-12 mm.

We press a plastic insert element into this hole.

We mark the border of the facade, set aside 7 mm from it and repeat the manipulations with both posts.

Please note that both posts have a groove selected for the back wall of the fiberboard.

We mark the guides for drawer. For example, on the side wall of the box I set aside 40 mm from the bottom, which means on the stand of the box I set aside 50 mm from the bottom border of the drawer front. 55 mm on this line is 37 mm (fixed size for ball guide + inset front thickness 16 mm).

We fit and install the remaining holes and fittings. The horizons are attached to the posts from below with confirmats, and from above - with minifixes.

After this, we proceed to assembling the box: we attach the lower horizon, put it in the groove back wall, set the upper horizon. We mount the under-facade part (I simply screwed it in with three screws from the bottom so that nothing would split and there would be no confirmation plugs on the sides).

After this, we move on to assembling the folding elements themselves. The planks are attached with self-tapping screws at the end (it is advisable to first drill holes for them so as not to split anything).. First, I assembled the baskets and decided to screw the facades to them, but that was not the case - it was impossible to get to the mounting holes, I had to partially disassemble and attach the facade and collect again.

I would advise you to start with the facades. Mark the mounting holes. I didn’t have a diagram for them, so I had to use the good old “Scientific Poke” method. The values ​​turned out to be as follows. By the way, they are not far from the truth (see the article about the correct additive - will come a little later)

We place the mechanism on the facade and fix it with six self-tapping screws.
All that remains is to put the shoe racks in place and screw on the handle and the shelf can be mounted in the box.

To install it in the box, we simply insert the assembled mechanism inside, position it opposite the previously drilled 20 mm holes, insert the axles into them and hammer them in with a hammer. Immediately drill with an 8 mm drill and install a stop pin. To do this, you need to retreat 172 mm from the axis, and 34 mm from the edge of the rack.

Our bedside table is gradually starting to take on a finished look.

We perform exactly the same manipulations with the second shoe rack. Then we move on to assembling the drawer. This process has already been discussed many times and we will not dwell on it.

All that remains is to put it in the designated niche. Screw the handle to the facade and set it to " ".

We screw additional magnetic latches into the box and strike plates to the facade.
That's it, the work is finished. The bedside table now looks like this. I would like to note a small drawback - a mismatch in the texture of the facades. To correct this, it was necessary to place them on the sheet as they should be mounted, or to make the drawing horizontal.


Finally, I’ll add that this structure is quite unstable, so it will definitely need to be attached to the wall. TO AVOID TIP.

    THANK YOU so much for the very useful information in the article. Everything is presented very clearly. It feels like a lot of work has been done to analyze the operation of the eBay store

    • Thank you and other regular readers of my blog. Without you, I would not be motivated enough to dedicate much time to maintaining this site. My brain is structured this way: I like to dig deep, systematize scattered data, try things that no one has done before or looked at from this angle. It’s a pity that our compatriots have no time for shopping on eBay because of the crisis in Russia. They buy from Aliexpress from China, since goods there are much cheaper (often at the expense of quality). But online auctions eBay, Amazon, ETSY will easily give the Chinese a head start in the range of branded items, vintage items, handmade items and various ethnic goods.

        What is valuable in your articles is your personal attitude and analysis of the topic. Don't give up this blog, I come here often. There should be a lot of us like that. Email me I recently received an email with an offer that they would teach me how to trade on Amazon and eBay. And I remembered your detailed articles about these trades. area I re-read everything again and concluded that the courses are a scam. I haven't bought anything on eBay yet. I am not from Russia, but from Kazakhstan (Almaty). But we also don’t need any extra expenses yet. I wish you good luck and stay safe in Asia.

  • It’s also nice that eBay’s attempts to Russify the interface for users from Russia and the CIS countries have begun to bear fruit. After all, the overwhelming majority of citizens of the countries of the former USSR do not have strong knowledge of foreign languages. No more than 5% of the population speak English. There are more among young people. Therefore, at least the interface is in Russian - this is a big help for online shopping on this trading platform. eBay did not follow the path of its Chinese counterpart Aliexpress, where a machine (very clumsy and incomprehensible, sometimes causing laughter) translation of product descriptions is performed. I hope that at a more advanced stage of development of artificial intelligence, high-quality machine translation from any language to any in a matter of seconds will become a reality. So far we have this (the profile of one of the sellers on eBay with a Russian interface, but an English description):
