All clothing needs to be on a hanger before coming to your drop off appointment. Hangers can be purchased inexpensively at many stores, or ask your friends to save their unused hangers for you. Join our Consignor only FB group for info on our first come first serve hanger hub. *Please note: you will not get your original hangers back, but you can pick up hangers at the end of the sale if they’re are any left.
PLEASE use CHILD size hangers for items Newborn-size 6. Size 7-up can be put on adult hangers. We accept clothing up to a child's size 16/18.
Make sure your hanger is facing open to the left like a question mark. (???)
Tags should be attached on the right hand side while you’re facing the garment, or in the neck area as long as it’s hanging out and is visible. We need to clearly see all tags.
Sort clothing into size and gender order before drop off please. Consider bagging or using a rubber band to organize by size and gender.
Snap all snaps, and button all buttons. Presentation matters!
Pants & Shorts
If at all possible, please hang pants/shorts/bottoms on a pants hanger. Multiple pairs can be hung on the same hanger.

If you can’t find any more pants hangers, this will work. Fold electrical tape over the bottom of a hanger, and safety pin the pants to the electrical tape. The tape will keep them from sliding over to one side of the hanger. Be sure not to damage your item with the safety pins!
Here’s another creative idea to make a pants or set hanger.
Safety pin pants over the top of the hanger in the “sleeve holders.” It keeps them from sliding over to one side. (See next pic for what not to do.)
❌ Do NOT hang pants with just safety pins on the bottom of a hanger! They will end up sliding over to one side.
Duct tape to pin the pants on. Again, keeps them from sliding to one side of the hanger.

Multiple onesies
If you are consigning multiple onesies (that aren’t part of an outfit), ideally this is the way they need to be hung. (see picture below) Ask around to see if friends who have recently had a baby might have these hangers for you to use. If you have any of these that you don’t need- please share. These multi hangers are like gold at Wee Ones!
Sets - top & bottoms
Please hang sets of tops & bottoms on a set hanger. If you absolutely can’t find any set hangers, let’s us know and we’ll try our best to help you out.
You might have to get creative with hanging sets if you need to! Here’s some pictures of ideas on how to hang sets:
- use a set hanger
- use hangers with the hook area to attach another hanger below
- use a pants hanger that hangs over the top of a shirt hanger
- use electrical tape to attach bottoms with safety pins. Please make sure the safety pins do not damage your item!
- attach clips to the shoulder part of a hanger with zip ties (see picture). This works because they don’t slide from side to side.
- as a last resort, use a tiny rubber band to attach hangers together. (We prefer other methods first because they save space on the racks)

Sets with bloomers
For sets with bloomers if you don’t have a set hanger- you can attach with small safety pins under the dress. (see pictures below) Be sure to pin into a seam to avoid making holes.
Do NOT put the bloomers over the top of the hanger. (see example picture below)
