This may not be the right place to ask but I'm desperate here. I'm having a huge garage sale next weekend and I have a TON of baby clothes from my sister that I'm selling. What is the best way to try to display them all? Any ideas? Space is sort of limited too. I can't hang them. I do have a very long table but it's nearly impossible to lay everything separate. Any thoughts? How can I get people interested?

Re: please help!!
This is just from my experience buying at garage sales- haven't sold any baby stuff yet, but I do have a couple tips.
1- have stuff on a table- pregnant women do not want to shop *** on the ground- it gets hard to shop that way!
2- keep them as neatly folded on a table, and by size as you can- this will be difficult as people shop, and may get annoying, but honestly that is the best way to do it. Have piles for 0-3 onesies, pants, sleepers, etc, then 3-6 or whatever sizes she is getting rid of.
3. If you have any sets, use some safety pins to pin them together. Its annoying to hear from a mom- oh, somewhere there is an adorable hat that goes with that- and then be unable to find it.
4. Interested- keep the price down. I am choosy- there is nothing so cute at your garage sale that I can't find a similar cute outfit at another garage sale (yes, I'm cheap) the most I spend at a garage sale on an outfit is $2, most onesies are .25-$1. (If I can get a new outfit on clearance for $3-4, I should be getting a deal for slightly used clothing) If anything is stained- maybe keep it in a box next to the table and tell people those are stained, but if you want sleepwear they are only .10-.25
5. Advertise your garage sale on craigslist with pictures. You will get people there from that- and if you are in Houston PM me so I can come!
Good luck- be willing to deal with people. Hope your garage sale ends up going well and you both make a lot of cash
