I'm always looking for ways to use "filler" on table displays or around the shop. Accessories are a great way to fill up space. I like to incorporate items that match our impact table so it catches your eye when you walk into the shop. Accessories always make a great gift if you're not looking for a shirt or other apparel item. We have keychains with our logo on them, tumblers, glassware and even small luggage items. These items are not essential, but members and guests love to have them. Having accessories on the front table also helps make it look fuller if there aren't many items on it. It shows off items you might not have seen before and helps with sales.
Around the holidays, I also like to bring in items that match the theme or holiday during that time. For the Fourth of July, I'll bring in hats with the American flag on them. At Christmas time, I'll bring in belts with holiday lights on them. It shows off fun ways to incorporate different accessories in the shop and freshens it up at the same time. I always keep headcovers and golf towels near the front table; I think these items are important because people are always looking for them, and this way, they can't miss them. The colors of the headcovers also help with merchandising and making the display pop!
