Consignors Tips

1. One of the most important tips I can offer is to be super organized.

Clothes must be clean, sorted by size and gender.

2. Increase you chances of a successful sale by ironing/steam pressing and have all your items smelling fresh.

Consignment Sales

I get so questions about consignment sales, I have decided to blog often about sales, saving money, tips on consigning and much more.

Kellytown Kids Consignment Sale starts tomorrow in Mcdonough. Prepare to be overwhelmed, there is so much to see.

Tips of the day for shoppers

1. Get there early, leave the little ones with a sitter.

2. Take a pull cart to haul all your finds.

3. Be sure to check payment methods at each sale. (many now  take credit/debit cards)

Tips of the day for consignors

If you plan on consigning this season,

1. Check out sites like: www.consignmentmommies.com or www.thebargainwatcher.com  to find sales.

2. You'll need plenty of safety pins and hangers.

3. Start sorting your kids clothes.
