Give yourself a raise… err, rise!

January 16, 2014 by Auntie Kate of Too Good to be Threw

Flat is uninteresting. Think bosom, land, consignment shop showcase.

Make your resale shop show cases look, and sell, better with TGtbT.com

A little change in elevation could be all your shop needs to take a boring presentation to a great one.

Risers, giving height to your goods, give visual interest and spotlight your best goods. You can use anything, even lumber, as long as it suits your shop’s image.

Your show case doesn’t need to be full of risers. Just a few… plus a little punch or two of color using fabric, makes this display look fabulous, don’t you think?

Simple display case idea from Too Good to be Threw

Prefer the flat look? Use see-through trays to organize your showcased goods by theme, material, or color:

  • A way to disguise those ugly price tags
  • And a way to flaunt brand names and great prices
  • Drape yourself some lovely necklaces with this DIY prop

    […] Your consignment, resale or thrift store doesn’t need to always put all your jewelry in cases. (We talked about making showcases more interesting a whole back.) […]
