Consignment Shops in Kansas for Makers & Artists

These 6 shops say they take work on consignment: you supply the stock and get paid when it sells. All are in Kansas; see all 424 nationwide or the Kansas City page.

Quick tips

On consignment you lend the shop your stock and get paid only when it sells, minus the shop's cut. Splits vary a lot, and some shops also charge a monthly or up-front fee, which can matter more than the split.
