We sell children's clothing Newborn through size 20 and Junior Sizes (0, 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13) as well as maternity clothing and accessories. Our Spring/Summer Sale is spring & summer clothing only (we will not accept sweaters, turtlenecks, snow boots, heavy winter coats or winter accessories).  Long sleeve shirts and jeans are fine. Be picky.  Look at your clothing items as if you were going to purchase them.  No stained or damaged items will be accepted.  Any items that look like "mom's" clothes will be rejected at inspection.  Please freshly clean your clothing items.  Replace missing buttons, sew loose hems and seams, and clip loose threads.  Please button all buttons, snap all snaps, zip all zippers before you arrive at drop off.  This will ensure that there are no defects in the clothing.  The newer the item looks (and the better it smells), the better it will sell.

Package & Hang:  Hangers - Please hang clothes so the hanger hook points to the left (like a question mark).  Hang size 0-7/8 clothing on child-size hangers and sizes 9-20 and maternity clothing on adult-size hangers.  Clothing that falls off the hanger onto the floor does not sell well.  Old Navy and many outlet stores are great places to get free hangers (they throw away hangers daily!)  We also have child size wire hangers for sale $2/20.  Email us if you are interested in purchasing hangers.  Clothing Sets - Sets tend to sell better (under size 6) so match things up if you can.  All garments should be hung with the hanger hook pointing left (hanger should resemble a question mark when looking at the front of item).  Use a safety pin to attach clothing sets securely with bottom garment hung on the backside of the shirt, so both pieces can be viewed without separating them. Pants/Shorts - Pant-clip hangers are great but if you use a standard hanger, simply use 2 safety pins to attach pants to the top part of the hanger so the garment will not slide.  Onesies, socks, tights, hats and infant mittens can be placed in a clear zip-lock bag (you may group multiple items in one bag). Please be sure to label your tag well so that customers know if the items are short-sleeve onesies or long-sleeve onesies.

Price:  Hanging Clothing - Put outfits/set together to price for at least $2.00;  Start at $2 for basic, generic brand 0-24mo outfit.  Add $1 each for larger size, name brand, formal, and heavy/winter.  Non-hanging Clothing - Put sets together to price for at least $2.00, but it's okay to price for less (i.e., 6 pair of socks for $1.50).

Tag:  Clothing on Hangers - Attach tag with a safety pin to the label of shirt/dress, upper right corner of shirt/dress or upper right front of pants.  If using a tagging gun insert the gun in a label or inside seam NOT through part of the clothing (to avoid making a hole or tear in the clothing).  Also, pull on the tag to make sure it is properly secured and will not come off easily.  Please make sure consignor tags are pulled out of the clothing so they are easily visible to the customers.  Non-Hanging Clothing - Please use safety pins to attach tags to onesies, socks, tights, infant mittens, and accessories.  Be sure to also attach multiple pieces together.  You can also put these items into clear zip-lock bags.  Please tape bags closed - we can open the bags for shoppers if they want to feel and inspect items before purchasing.  How to Hang Clothing Items for JBF

Books, book sets, board games, puzzles, video games, video game systems, scrapbook items, arts & crafts, children's DVDs are great items for resale.  Please only bring kids’, parenting, homeschooling, pregnancy and child rearing books.  Games and puzzles must have all pieces.  (No "adult" content please.)  Check items to ensure they are in great condition.

Package:  Use clear, self-seal bags or clear cling wrap (saran wrap) to hold multiple items together; Tie sets of books together with ribbon/string. Be sure that parts/games to video game systems (such as Vtech) cannot be separated or switched out at the sale.  Please do not use clear packing tape on books or puzzles and this tends to damage the item when the customer removes the tag.  Clear cling wrap is great for puzzles and scotch tape or painters tape is great for books.

Price:  Prices can range from $.50 to $50 in this category, depending on the item. Price to sell especially for books & DVDs as there are always lots to choose from at the sale.

Tag:  When tagging books, please attach your tag to the book with clear tape or painters tape that can be removed without damaging the item.  Please do not use masking or double sided tape. Hole-punch JBF tag and tie to sets.  How to Tag Books, DVDs and Electronics

Bedding sizes accepted are bassinet through full size only. Please be selective when selling bedding, blankets, receiving blankets, burp cloths, and towels. New and barely used items sell best. Check carefully for stains; shoppers get very disappointed if they find a stain in a bundled blanket once they get home.

Package:  Put bedding/crib/bedroom sets together in original packaging or in giant clear plastic bags (these can usually be found at a local Dollar Store). Arrange bedding sets inside bag so that shoppers can see all of the items as well as the design/pattern. Secure the bag so that items do not get separated. Bundle blankets, cloths, and towels with ribbon or string like a package or with safety pins (be sure multiple pieces cannot be separated).

Price:  Price to sell!  Shoppers are less likely to purchase these items used, so prices have to be low. Try to price 75% - 90% off retail.

Tag:  If bedding is in a plastic bag, attach tag securely with packaging tape to the inside of the bag and tape the bag shut (bedding set prices vary widely and securing tags inside bags prevents tag switching).  If bedding/blankets are bundled with string, attach tag directly to blanket with a safety pin and tuck it under the ribbon/string so that it does not easily get pulled off when shifting around during the sale.  How to Tag Bedding
