In reply to Bare Threads. Miss Bare Threads, thank you so much for leaving this comment. It reminds me that I have a lot to offer with vintage selling experience. Thank YOU. As for Delilah, um fabulous! As for your stall, have you thought about getting a fence to hang your wares? It would need to be the kind you can lean on a wall (if you are against a wall?) Also, a carpet and those french screens, for changing. And a faux lamp for a nice touch! can you keep your stall all week or do you need to collapse it everyday and then re setup?

This was a fantastic article! Even though these pointers are in the back of your mind it’s always great to actually re-read them step by step to get you re-energised. I have an online boutique as well as a market stall at Adelaide’s premier fashion markets, the Gilles Street Markets. I started merchandising my clothing by colour awhile back and have found that it increases foot traffic twofold compared to by style etc. I also display a vintage mannequin (“Delilah”) and two other modern plastic half body hanging mannequins. I know the stall needs some kind of colour theme I.e for table covering; floor covering; accent colour but I am torn between keeping it an eclectic variety of colours, or committing to a colour scheme. Any ideas/ comments would be greatly appreciated :)

I run an online vintage store but found the pointers in this article adaptable and inspiring! I’m definitely looking to display my items by color and creating a moodboard. Do you have any specific tips for online & etsy sellers?
