How to Add Items to a Project

Learn the different ways to add items to your Gather projects — manually, with the Clipper, from your Library, or by duplicating.

There are four ways to add items to a project in Gather. Depending on your workflow, you might use one or all of them.

1. Add an Item Manually

Inside your project, click the green "+" button to create a new item from scratch. You can fill in all the details — name, vendor, price, images, notes, and more — directly in Gather.

This is great for custom or one-off items, or when you want to build out specs by hand.

2. Clip Items from the Web Using the Clipper Tool

The Gather Clipper is a browser extension that lets you save products directly from vendor and supplier websites into your project. It captures the product image, name, price, URL, and other details automatically.

This is the fastest way to add items when you are browsing supplier sites.

3. Add Items from Your Library

If you have saved items to your Library from previous projects, you can add them to any new project. This is useful for items you specify frequently — like go-to fabrics, hardware, or fixtures.

4. Duplicate an Existing Item

You can duplicate an item that is already in your project to create a copy with the same specs. This is helpful when you need a similar item with slight variations — like the same chair in a different fabric.

💡 Tip: You can add items to a specific area by selecting the area first, or move items between areas later.
