Vendor Booths...
We will be accepting a small number of Vendor "booths" that specialize in family and/or kid-related products to supplement our consigned goods. We guarantee exclusivity to our Vendors, so no two sellers will be promoting the same item or service. The reservation rate for one booth space is $50. If you require additional room to display your product(s), and space permits, a second table may be added for an additional $30. Checks may be made payable to itty bitty boutique and be mailed to 97 Carthage Ave, Eugene, OR 97404 in enough time to reach us by Monday, April 16th in order to reserve a space. The reservation fee is non-refundable after April 16th, as late cancellations inhibit our ability to offer the space to another Vendor.
Sale organizers will determine Vendor acceptance based on the projected amount of space available at Camp Harlow, as well as whether a Vendor's product or service is deemed appropriate for the sale. Please contact us at consign@ittybittyboutique.org to express interest. Be sure to tell us about your business, include a link to your website, if applicable, attach photos of your work, and give us your price points.
There are three different options for how you may run your booth. You may:
- staff all four days at the booth yourself, working with the customers and handling your own money
- set up your booth with products that you would like us to sell for you (you must tag the individual items as a Consignor would...please review the Tagging Info page for more details)
- set up a display only booth, at which shoppers can see samples of your products or pick up information on your services, but no products are for sale at the event
Upon acceptance, we will ask your preference for Option 1, Option 2, or Option 3, all of which are described in further detail below. Regardless of which option you choose, you must have your display completely assembled prior to the sale opening by 3:00pm Wednesday, April 25th and you must tear down your booth after the sale ends at 2:00pm on Saturday, April 28th.
As a bonus, we will advertise your booth in email communications to our mailing list prior to/during the sale, if you provide us with a short 1-3 sentence blurb regarding the products/services you offer.
An additional Vendor benefit is one pass to shop the Pre-Sale with our Volunteer Workers on Wednesday, April 25th at 4:00pm and one pass to the Volunteer Worker Half-Price Pre-Sale Friday, April 27th at 7:00 pm...both events are held the night before the sale opens to the public!
Option 1:
Run Your Own Booth
A 60” round table will be provided for you, or you may bring your own 6 foot rectangular table. You will be responsible for setting up your booth, providing any necessary table coverings, selling your items, and handling all of your own money for the duration of the sale. We would prefer that you be available at the booth at all times during the sale hours in order to keep it open for business, but if you decide to leave early or take a break, you will need to cover your products and place a closed sign at your table. As in the case of our Volunteer Workers, we ask that you do not bring your children with you. itty bitty boutique, llc and its sale organizers will not be held responsible for items that are lost, damaged, or stolen during the course of the sale, though every effort will be made to prevent these circumstances.
