What you need
1 “pole”: Use what you have and get creative. Use a broom, scrap wood, a shovel, string, a PVC pipe—the pole possibilities are endless.
2 bases: You can mix and match bases, as long as they’re similar in height.
- Cabinets
- Bookshelves
- Ladders
- Lamps
- Barstools

Pro-Tip: Use items you’re selling for storage.
There’s no need to drag out a folding table if you’re already selling furniture. Make the most of every item. Desks, tables and chairs can all be used to display smaller items. Here are some ideas:

- Open chest and desk drawers and put smaller for-sale items inside.
- Bookshelves can house cake stands, shoes, blankets, and of course—books.
Here’s to an organized and successful garage sale!
