Are you planning a trip? Try our packing tips and tricks to have a more organized suitcase. Frustrated by jewelry that tangles? Need more room in your case? We have tricks for both of these cases and more. You probably have everything on hand that you need to get more organized when you travel.
We are starting with tips and tricks for packaging your jewelry when traveling.
First for earrings, add them to a large button to prevent them from getting lost in transit. This will keep them neat and ready to wear. Just put through the button holes and add the backs to the earrings. Drop the button with the earrings into a small zippered pouch for traveling.
Next for those pesky necklaces and bracelets that constantly get tangled in a regular bag. The trick is to put them between two sheets of press and seal wrap. Remove one sheet, add your necklaces, add a sheet on top, and press all around each piece of jewelry. This keeps everything separated and prevents any tangling during your travels. Roll up the sheets and add to a bag in your suitcase. Then just pull apart the sheets when you get to your hotel and your necklaces will be perfect and ready to wear.
You may also want to save room in your suitcase. The number one way to do that is to roll all of your clothes. This will help them to take up less space when added to your bag. This is the perfect way to fit as much in that carry on as possible. This is a great way to save money when traveling as well. The fewer checked bags on the airline, the less money you will spend overall. The best part of this method is it also prevents wrinkling. No more ironing when you get to your destination.
Once your clothes are rolled, you can organize your pack by adding them to individual gallon sized zip top bags. Add everything you will need for the day to each bag and write on the day of the week if desired. Then when you are on your trip, just grab a bag for each day and everything you need will be inside.
