Recital's Over. Now What Do I Do With All These Costumes?
Raise your hand if you're currently looking at a pile of recital costumes with absolutely no idea what to do with them. 🙋
There's no doubt that after recital weekend, many dance parents go into full organization mode. The makeup gets put away, the garment bags get hung up, and somehow dance shoes end up in every room of the house.
Then you're left staring at a collection of costumes wondering, "Now what?"
The problem is that costumes are often the one thing you probably won't need again. Sure, there are a few exceptions, but most of them end up taking up valuable real estate in a hall closet, spare bedroom, or storage bin for years.
Not to brag or anything, but The Dance Shop has a pretty great solution.
Our Costume Consignment Program
Here at The Dance Shop in Altoona, Pennsylvania, we offer a costume consignment program that helps give those costumes a second life while helping you reclaim some closet space.
We accept up to 15 costumes per six-month consignment term and display them in our Costume Corner right inside the store.
And trust us... our Costume Corner gets a lot more attention than your hall closet.
Throughout the year, dancers and families shop our costume section for competition solos, specialty routines, theater productions, Halloween costumes, and even dress-up collections for younger siblings.
What's In It For You?
Besides finally being able to close your closet door without a sequined sleeve getting stuck in it?
You'll receive 50% of the selling price in the form of a gift card to The Dance Shop when your costume sells.
That means old costumes can turn into new dance shoes, tights, leotards, accessories, competition essentials, or whatever your dancer inevitably needs next.
