Use children's plastic hangers for sizes 10 and below. Use larger plastic hangers for sizes 12 and above. You may also use wire coated hangers as long as they are size appropriate.

Hang and pin blankets over hangers so that shoppers can see them. If they are small receiving blankets, group 2 or 3 together on a hanger and pin them together. Safety pin the tag to the blankets.

Loose Items

Items sell better when they are on a hanger rather than in a bag. Items such as bibs, burp cloths, cloth diapers and onesies should be placed on a hanger and secured with a safety pin. Also use a safety pin to attach the string tag to the item.

Bottles, rattles, socks, bows, etc group together appropriately in ziploc bags. Attach the string tag to the inside of the bag using a small piece of tape on the top part of the string tag.

Please do not tape your bags closed until after they have gone through consignor check in. It also helps to write your consignor number and info on the plastic bag with a permanent marker in case the tag comes off during the sale.

We will not accept used nipples or pacifiers - only new, in the package of these items.

Games should be taped closed. Books and DVD's do not need to be put in ziplock bags. If are you grouping them you can use plastic wrap, tape or place them in a ziplock bag. Attach the string tag to the inside of the bag using a small piece of tape at the top of the string tag. It is also good to write your consignor number and info on the ziploc bag with a Sharpie in case the tag comes off. DVD's and video games should not be taped shut until after they have been through consignor check in. Puzzles should be wrapped securely in clear Saran wrap to keep the pieces intact.
