I finally made a decision, and for the last couple of days, I have been throwing out all of my shoe boxes! I'm actually really relieved that I made this decision and I feel like it was the right thing to do, for me personally. It was so ridiculous how much bulk I was able to get out, and god, I can't even imagine how difficult it would be to move with all these boxes if that day ever came.
Right now I'm in the middle of finding the right shelving for them so they are just kind of sitting around waiting for a home. I guess I should have put the shelving up first, huh? Well, no matter. I know I'll have to be much more responsible about them and make sure I dust them constantly but it's totally worth the work seeing them all lined up and ready to go. I ended up cataloging all the shoes into one large excel document with all the names, sizes, etc so that I can still post and being the nut that I am, I know all my shoes by their names.
Let's hope this system works out because if it doesn't... well, it just has to work! :)

Good for you! It will save loads of room and they will look so good on display! =)
It's so funny that you have catalogued all your shoes! I just did the same thing (and I too know them all by name!), with colour, fabric, style, and heel and platform height.
(Oh, and the total is now up to 141! That's why I listed prices in my excel sheet as a way to curb my spending!)
OMG, that's so funny that we got the same idea to excel all of our shoes! Except I didn't do the price column, and looking back it would have been a good idea to add it. So 141? WOW, you definitely beat me, I can't remember the exact number but I think I'm at 107... I've got some catching up to do!
