We sell children's clothing, toys, furniture and equipment on consignment. This means that 40% of the sale price goes to you and 60% stays in the store. We post our sales every night and the cash is available to you the next day. We would like this to be a good experience for both the seller and buyer so please take a moment to read the following information. ClothingWe accept children's clothes size 0 through 12. Size 0 through 9 months needs to be new since experience has thought us that gently worn items for new babies don't sell. All other clothing needs to be in beautiful condition; no stains, button's missing, rips and obviously worn items can be accepted. Since we are a small shop we can only accept clothing that is close to the current season.

We keep your clothes in the store for 45 days, at that time you have the options to pick up any items that haven't sold, or we can donate them for you. We donate all our unsold items to the Huntington Family Service League were the items are given to needy families in our area. We'll be happy to print you a list of donated items at the end of the year.
Toys
Toys need to be clean, complete and if possible with original packaging and instructions. Outdoor play equipment needs to be safe and in good working order. Please call us to check on space availability.
Furniture
Furniture needs to be in great shape without defects and of course with all the necessary hardware. If we have space available you can bring your furniture to the store, if not we'd like to have a picture of the items and will display this on our web site and in our store. Please call before bringing in any large items.
Other info
We keep a wish list in the store so that we can call people who are waiting for a certain item. If you have any wishes feel free to let us know. To keep the list up to date we'll e-mail you from time to time to see if the item is still needed.
We price the items based on what has sold in the past. It doesn't pay to price something too high because buyers will wait till it goes half price after 30 days and buy it then.
If there are special outfits that you'd like to let us know about, please do so, we can always discuss the price at the time of intake.
There is a onetime $5.00 fee to start the account. That number will be yours and you can bring more items every week. We would like to keep the number of clothes to 10 so that we don't have to disappoint other consignors due to lack of space.
