PINNING & TAGGING GUIDELINES
-
Remember, the nicer the presentation, the more likely it is to sell!
-
Pin items to wire hangers with large sturdy safety pins so they will not fall off.
-
Pin item tags securely to the item on the RIGHT side.
-
Please use large pins otherwise they pop open and fall off. NO small, flimsy safety pins or the tiny, little gold pins. We want to make sure your items stay on the hanger and the tag does not get separated from the item so please use the large safety pins.
-
Large safety pins can be purchased at Hobby Lobby, Michaels, Target, etc.
-
Shirts should be safety pinned to the hanger near the shoulders or neck to ensure that the shirt stays on.
-
Shorts/Pants/Skirts are pinned to the “shoulders” of the hanger, towards the middle of the waistband so they don’t slip. A pin passes through the front and back of the shorts and around the hanger on each side for a secure hold. An extra pin in the middle will make them even more secure.
-
Outfits hang the shorts/pants/skirt with the shirt so that they can both be easily seen. Hang the shirt on the hanger and then turn it around so that you are facing the back of the shirt. Next safety pins the top of the bottoms through shoulders of the shirt and around the hanger so the bottoms do not pull down the shirt.
-
If you are selling clothing sets, please make sure they are the same size. If they are not the same size please tag and sell separately.
-
ALL TAGS MUST BE PRINTED ON WHITE CARDSTOCK PAPER. This is to protect your items from being separated from it’s tag. An item with no tag cannot be sold.
BOTTOMS
-Hanger should look like a question mark.
-Use large safety pins. They are less likely to pop open which keeps your item from getting lost due to falling off the hanger.
-Tags should be pinned on the top right of the garment (not pictured).
-Note the position of the safety pins. This keeps your item from sliding around on the hanger. This is very important to getting your items seen. Items that hang off the hanger often get overlooked and don't sell.
BOTTOMS - INCORRECT
When pinned this way, the pants easily slide to one side of the hanger, potentially making them hard to find on the rack and also increases the risk of having the garment not sell.
