Tipsy Tuesday - Identifying your Tags

Now that consignors are starting to register & tag I thought it would be a great time to start...Tipsy Tuesday!! I will share a tip with you and feel free to share your tips here as well...

Why not use a unique color for your tag? Or identify them in some way to make them unique? It is harder on your eyes to look for your blue striped shirt, white polke dot shirt, plaid pants, etc. If your eyes are just looking for a particular tag it will help you to find your clothing items more quickly!
1. Tags don't all have to be white...our scanners can read most tag colors EXCEPT DARK COLOR, stay away from neons & dark shades. Pastels are a great choice or if you are a scrapbooker, you might know where to find unique cardstock colors (AC Moore, Micheals, etc.).2. Scissors - why not try to cut your tags using a pair of scissors with a different kind of an edge! There are a lot of inexpensive scissors you can get that will cut your tags with some sort of rickrack or wavy edge!3. Sticker or Stamp your tags -After you have printed your tags, stamp or stick them with a character, initial or design that is unique. I prefer the stamp b/c you can use it over and over and it never really needs to be replaced.
4. Mark your hanger - Instead of looking for a particular tag, looking for a ribbon or piece of yarn that is attached to your hanger. I do want to warn you that it is not as fool proof as marking your tags! Items fall off of their hangers all of the time throughout the weekend. They are not always placed back on the same hanger. For that reason I don't recommend this option as highly, but it is a good way to grab a handful of your items quickly at pick-up!Once you have picked your "theme", stick with it! You can use the same supplies from sale to sale and then you won't have to remember what you used last season. You will always know to look for the pastel blue wavy edged tag with the "G" stamp on them! This little bit of extra work will make your pick up process go much quicker!
