Clothing & Shoes
Sizes and measurements
|
Here is a table I use to track measurements when I am listing clothing. {NOTE Jan 2017 e-mail me for the document - it is temporarily disabled]
I have all my purchases set aside in one area. I take pictures, measure each item, and put it in a clear poly bag for storage/shipping. I find it most efficient to handle each garment only one time after purchase, and this makes shipping super quick. |
