BEST Materials to Choose for Travel Packing Wrinkle Free!
TSA won’t stop you for the tools keychain ? What about the fact it has tiny blade and scissors?
@@SM-jb8jf I have only been stopped once for that multitool and that’s when I had it buried in my bag somewhere. Otherwise if you look on the TSA website, it distinctly has rules for scissors and this definitely falls below the size. 😊
I used the IKEA Hemnes shoe unit for my small space in my bedroom. I do have those plastic ones behind my kitchen door though for shoes 😊
@@berniecejulien2951 I think you’re going to love how versatile they are😊
@@TheoryofSimple Oh I do. I first used for underwear but now hair products and other bits and bobs (no shoes though!). As I also picked up the unit second hand from eBay, it was a bargain. I screwed to the wall for more stability. Adds that extra storage when there isn't room for full depth units 😊
A wet/dry bag (it's meant for cloth diapers/baby clothes) is great for laundry bag. I keep a swim suit/beach towel and my flip flops in the outer pocket and dry laundry in the bigger part. I got the biggest 1 I could find on Amazon. I will be adding the hangers/clips to it. I usually leave it in the bathroom wherever we are staying. Husband knows to add his dirty laundry to the bag.
@@samanthahillburhop581 a wet dry bag can be a trip saver! I always have one on my trip! You could even put wet shoes on it if you’ve been out by the pool the night before and you don’t want to get the rest of your luggage stuff wet😊
I am very lucky not to have a back problem but I do ensure before I travel that I stretch and practice lifting my cases for a couple of weeks beforehand. I know exactly what weight check in bag I can manage to get on and off the conveyor and I know what carry on weight I can lift up over my head and up and down staircases. On long haul flights I always take a tiny four-wheel roller case as personal item as sometimes you have to walk miles to and from the gates and carrying a backpack or any other type of bag it's just too heavy. Thanks as always for your wonderful tips and tricks have learnt so much from you❤.
@@clairedriscoll8628 you are very lucky indeed! I stretch every morning and every night and the one thing I will tell you is packing. My bag is always exacerbated back problems but now with this table, I have found a solution that will keep my back pain-free one I’m packing. Thanks so much for sharing with us.😊
😂 the wall full of baskets could hold a HUGE dresser and not clutter your bedside
@@xxOldSouL the bedroom is too small to hold another large dresser so this is the best solution when you have small space😊
The giant water bottle on a flight? Really?
@@janicemacintosh5804 yep! You have to stay hydrated on a plane because the air is more dry and there’s more air pressure. Can you get water from flight attendants? Yes you can however sometimes that flight can be turbulent and like my last flight, there was no beverage service at all because of the turbulence and I was really glad I had my large water bottle😊
❤❤❤❤❤
By the end of my last trip I was nearly in tears from my back pain from lugging my personal item bag around. Your suggestions are much appreciated.
@@Brody2477 so sorry you had to deal with such back pain, but I’m glad that you found some great solutions in my video! 🙏😊
It won’t fit BA’s personal item which is 16 x 12 x 6 sadly
@@tray2811 it does fit…you may have to pack a little less than I packed it. It is a soft sided bag so it will conform to the sizer….tried it😊
For bad back, I always have the Miracle Ball Method for my back, either in the car or airplane. Even for sleeping.
@@linhtieu3922 I will have to look that up! Thank you for sharing! 💕😊
Where do you get that sunblocker at? I've been looking for things like that and there's not around anymore.
@@juneallen4926 everything should be linked in the video description😊
Wow who knew!?!?!? So many cute little things, thanks I'll have to check one out near me. It is right by DAISO too. ;)
Oh my goodness, that is a traveler’s dream come true right there having cost plus and Daiso right near each other! I’d probably go broke😂🤣
What organization system that I use…..??? LOL I need one, I’m taking a lot of inspiration from this video, thanks Eunice❤
@@kms5306 lol! The first step is always the hardest! I’m glad this video gave you inspiration to get some ideas for organizing!😊
Life is impacted once you fracture any bone in your body, spinal fractures are serious & the worse. If you won't take the time to heal, and change habits, it's gonna be detrimental. Braces weaken muscles, you can't depend on it fully. Got to lose body weight to get pressure off your back. I mentioned previously a spine fracture can be recurring. In fact, once a spine fracture takes place more areas can fracture. I say heal up completely & take time off from traveling to heal.
@@stavana4875 yes good advice and I’m definitely listening to my doctors and therapist to let me know what is best for me to heal and hopefully prevent further damage😊
Love love the travel sizes like you say if you travel you’re not allowed to take plus with the cost of luggage to take carry on travel size plus when you put you’re makeup on the way to work love those sizes
@@dillianrivera9478 me too! Also convenient to have in your handbag for touch ups!💕😊
Van dwellers need all these, Excellent 👍
@@Sheila-wb7rt yes! In hope to have a van someday 🙏
Air BnBs are not safe anymore, especially for solo female travellers. I had two similar experiences and now I stay in a high ebdish hotel room. Not worth my safety or peace of mind. Call the air bnb owner and denand clear explanation. You should not have to experience such discomfort staying there.
@@SS-ku3bm the owner did explain the situation. Regarding safety at a hotel, Many more people have access to your room than you might think. I talk about a situation in a hotel, where a man walked into my room while I was in it. That video is in my safety and security playlist.
Thank you so much for this information! An absolute master class in handbag travel packing! I enjoyed your commentary and presentation very much.
@@df3557 thank you so much! I love making these videos for you 💕😊
Why would you take peanut butter on a plane!!!!!!
@@lynnebouffard2062 because it has protein in it. They sell peanuts and peanut butter at the airport for people to eat so I don’t know why I wouldn’t bring my own from home.🤷♀️ if people are that severely allergic to peanuts, they need to let the people around them know so that they can make changes so if someone around me would say they are allergic to peanuts. I would probably not eat it, but they can’t control everybody on the plane, eating peanuts or peanut butter.. just like people are allergic to dogs or cats. They are allowed on the plane as well and they can’t control whether you’re sitting next to someone with a dog or a cat. It’s up to the person with allergy to be proactive and inform the flight attendants, or the airlines that they have a severe allergy and take care of that themselves.
You said you’re only to use deodorant twice a week? Lucky you! I need to apply every day.
@@anacorona2527 yes, I have found that as I’ve gotten older, I don’t sweat as much plus, I’ve changed my diet a bit, and I don’t have as much body odor😊
Looks interesting, but who wants to wait that long for your food to be ready to eat?
@@dizzysdoings well for me if I’m gonna be out day tripping, then I’ll just put food in it and leave it in there all day so when I come home to a nice hot meal. 😊
@@TheoryofSimple if it's a place you're staying in for a few days, it would probably be okay. But if I'm stopping someplace like that, it's only overnight and only because I either left later than expected, or I ran into traffic, construction, etc on the road. Anytime I've stopped, there's always been a mini fridge/freezer, microwave and coffee maker in the room. I normally have meals already made and frozen in a small cooler. So I can just pop one in the microwave.
@@dizzysdoings so like anything it always depends on the situation, right😊 many times I’m at an Airbnb where there’s not a stove or I’m in a hotel room where they don’t have anything except a coffee maker and I don’t want to just keep eating Ramen noodles or something that heats with hot water. This gives me some freedom to be able to cook something healthy in my room when I’m out for the day of course if you’re stopping here and there and you don’t have the time to figure out another way, which is why I have many other videos, talking about travel, cooking that give ideas and tools for those who like to cook healthy and save some money when they’re on the road😊
I finally quit carrying a backpack and now use a small rolling carryon that is similar in size and I am sold on that!! Saves my back - especially when maneuvering airports!
@@k3ttt it’s a game changer!💕 what I love about it is you can carry it in your hand. You can roll it by itself or you can stack it on other luggage so it’s very versatile.😊
Great job and very Smart. Thank you for sharing.
@@user-ni4nl8xn4u thank you so much. I’m so glad you liked this idea and video.💕😊
I always use the little fish shaped sauce containers. I use a turkey injector to fill them.
@@NothingToNoOneInParticular they’re so cute and I have found a injector for baby Tylenol to be a great resource for me to even take with me when I want to refill on the go!😊💕
What is the back brace you chose?!
@@cindischaablivingartnpixie2251 this is the one I’m currently using amzn.to/3SO6G5v
No need for a bloop reel...lol At least you had a great attitude and laughed, the both you! Totally appreciate the realism though. Life be like that tho...lol
@@NothingToNoOneInParticular lol! Kind of felt like that flight was a complete blooper! Thank goodness, I packed those meals for us because we would’ve been dang hungry the next day! So glad you got a chuckle out of this video😊💕
Went on Princess Cruise in '00 & '01 My Mom and I were the only ones in Glacier bay in shorts and windbreakers. It was May. We could tell who was from: say Arizona...they were dressed in ski suits completely covered, (they looked like Bibendum, the Michelin man), almost convulsing with cold and complaining. lol
@@NothingToNoOneInParticular lol! It’s amazing how we get used to our own climates! 😊
I have chronic back and bilateral knee pain. I wear Clark's Ashland loafers. They're as comfortable as sneakers, but look much better, great support.
@@stephaniemonteilh3240 oh those sound wonderful! I always like something that doesn’t look like a sneaker so when you need to dress it up a bit you can it still be comfortable! Thank you so much for sharing that with us💕😊
I've seen your spice carrier for travel, fill some with fine Himalayan sea salt and baking soda or anything else for homemade electrolyte recipes. I just cannot afford the packets unless out and about. Inflation has just hammered my low income to a pulp, I've had to be resourceful to still do some things...like basic hydration.
@@NothingToNoOneInParticular I feel your pain and having these little bottles makes a great spice set to to slip one of these into your purse for electrolytes and hydration and you can refill it with bulk size or make your own😊💕
I have lived with chronic back pain for years and one of the best things that help comes from the Dollar Tree! It’s an Absorbine Jr. back patch XL. It really does ease the pain and loosen tight muscles. If you try it, I hope they help you too!

@@Thatlakelife thank you so much for sharing that with us! I’m gonna have to go look for that now😊💕
If I were rich I'd hire you in a heartbeat! I don't havethe neural mapping for organization, I end up with more organizers than being organized. Asperger's downside. Upside? Art savant skills, but diminishing due to RA. Yeah apt looks like a storage unit. Too many prep supplies, but they've be needed in this terrible economy. Great job on that room though!
@@NothingToNoOneInParticular thank you so so much and I’m not sure if you watched my video from about a month ago where I organized all my travel stuff! I used craft organizers for that and I think they would be really beneficial for your stuff as well!

Does anyone have anything they use for your bad back for sitting in the airplane seat??
@@mamanothing9506 I sometimes take a towel that I travel with and roll it up and put it in the lower part of my back to give me some support💕😊
Look for the 2nd gen of door lock, it has one end for a home door and the other is for hotels.Toss a back pack cover in a dark color, if you want to be hidden from any danger. In a collapse or in a riot, it will be more helpful to be hidden. Man I just found you, missed the giveaway. Drats.
@@NothingToNoOneInParticular thank you so much for the second GEN door, lock hack, and for the dark colored backpack cover! Love being prepared, and I love that you thought of those ideas and shared them with us💕😊 I’m so glad you found my channel, but there will be another giveaway coming up soon!
I just discovered you🎉 Thank you for all those great ideas😊

I have a really bad back. I had to surgeries, I have a fused. It's fused all the way almost all the way what I find worked. The easiest is using a wheelchair to get through airports.
Oh wow! Happy you have found a way to keep traveling🙏😊
