CLOTHING ITEMS

This is how to tag an item in the selvage. Note that this is done on the inside of the clothing item.

This is a single item. The hanger looks like the top of a question mark. The tag is on the right side when facing the item.

This is the front and back of a two-piece item on one hanger. Note that the shirt is not under the overalls but pinned on the outside. Please do not hang items under one another, but use more than one hanger (like item below) or use one hanger with both items pinned to the hanger.

This is a four-piece outfit on multiple hangers. The three hangers have a rubber band around them to keep the items together. The matching tights are in a plastic bag that is pinned to the hanger.

Shoes need to be placed in a zipped-top plastic bag with the tag inside the bag. You can use a tagging gun to keep the tag in place. Place the tag in the bag and then insert the needle of the tagging gun through one side of the bag, the tag, and then the other side of the bag. You can tape the top of the bag to keep shoes secure. If shoes are to large you may use zip ties to connect shoes and tag with tagging gun.

NON-CLOTHING ITEMS

Multiple books should be placed in a bag with the tag inside the bag. Single books do not have to be in a plastic bag but this does help prevent possible damage and loss of tag.

Small miscellaneous items should be placed in a bag with the tag in the bag. Bag should be taped shut so it can not be opened. For instructions on how to tag inside the bag see description of shoes.

Large item with small items. Place small items and tag in a plastic bag. Attach with ribbon or tape the bag of small items (with tag inside) to the large item.

Please let us know if you have any tagging questions that have not been answered.
