Consignment Details:
-
How does the consignment process work?
-
Once outgrown, bring in your gently worn clothing. We will examine up to 20 items per visit. Once we go through to ensure the pieces fit our boutique expectations, we immediately return any articles we can’t use.
-
We tag and price your items fairly based on our experience and the current market.
-
We issue store credit on the first of every month for sold items at 50% of the selling price. You’ll receive an email with the amount credited to your account. If you prefer cash instead of store credit, you will have until the 5th of the month to request a check, and we’ll happily cash out your account. We apply a 10% Cash-Out Fee, and you will receive 40% of the selling price.

-
What brands or items do you accept for consignment?
-
At Little Wishes, we are creating a sustainable clothing cycle. If your child has lovingly worn their favorites, and the clothing still has more wear to give, that’s what we’re looking for! We like to see natural fabrics, sturdy construction, and local businesses. It makes our day when the brands we carry return, once again ready for a new home.
-
-
How often do you pay consignors, and through what methods?
-
Consignors receive store credit for the previous month’s sales on the 1st of every month at 50% of the selling price. Their receipt will detail new credits and their total available credit.
-
Consignors have until the 5th of the month to request a check to cash out their account instead of using their store credit. We apply a 10% Cash-Out Fee, meaning the consignor receives 40% of the selling price.

Sustainability:
-
Why is sustainability important for children’s clothing?
-
We all want the best for our children, and their clothes matter. Kids go through clothes so quickly that it makes our heads spin, and many fabrics only last that same amount of time. The petrol-based materials that create fast fashion go directly to landfills or end up in oceans.
-
We can break this cycle. By buying high-quality, eco-conscious apparel and trading it in when it’s time to size up, we make a big impact that requires little effort.
-
-
How can I care for my garments to ensure they last longer?
-
Life gets wild, and laundry can be the worst! You do you, on your schedule: just remember to use spot remover! The sooner you do, the better it is for keeping clothes stain-free. Your laundry can sit for days if you get the spot remover on first.
