This Is How You Can Fit All Your Clothes Into A Carry-On. I’m So Glad I Learned THIS Simple Trick
Packing for a trip is a necessary evil. No one likes to do it but it must be done. The annoying task is made all the more harder by airline’s weight and size limits, not to mention the costly fees and numerous rules about what is and is not allowed on a plane. All that aside, the number one most pain in the butt aspect of packing is simply trying to fit all the clothes and shoes you need and want to bring along with you in the suitcase.
If you toss and cram stuff in randomly you are definitely not going to fit as much as you could have by neatly folding it. However, even doing that isn’t the best route to go, instead you should strategically fold things together, into a tight and compact packet, to maximize packing efficiency.
Below is my best attempt at explaining this packing technique, however a better way to understand and master it is by watching the video yourself:
Start by laying out jackets collar down on a flat surface, then place collared shirts on top 180 degrees from the jacket, collared side up. Begin to add on other shirts or sweaters directly atop one another, with sleeves lined up. Then place pants and jeans horizontally across the pile, with the legs extending outwards and the waist in the middle of it.
The key is to keep shirts on the vertical axis and pants on the horizontal one as you add articles of clothing to the pile in layers. Take all your socks and undies and wrap them up separately in a tight t-shirt bundle, then place that strategically in the middle of the clothing pile.
With the t-shirt packet in place, start to wrap up the clothing one piece at a time. Fold the clothes up into what will become one big bundle by wrapping the arms first, then body part of tops; see the video to truly understand this part. When everything has been tightly wrapped, you will end up with a nice squarish pile of clothes that minimizes wrinkles and the amount of space it ends up taking in your suitcase.
When packing up your suitcase place 2 pairs of shoes in first, one dressy and one casual. If your bag has a zippered compartment it can make a great holder for the shoes. Next, place the clothing bundle in the suitcase and then follow that with whatever else you want to bring that can fit in or around it.
Hopefully, this method will help tame the madness that packing often turns out to be. Try it out the next time you are going on a trip and see if it works for you!

The Easiest Way To Fold and Pack T-Shirts With THIS Unexpected Wrinkle-Free Secret!
Traveling can be a lot of fun and adventure but packing for a trip is anything but that. It’s hard enough anticipating the items you’ll need and deciding what to wear, but the packing part is always hit or miss. Suitcases and bags never seem big enough to hold all the clothes we want to bring along and more often than not people end up over-packing.
With airlines charging a pretty penny for luggage these days, having more than one or two bags can quickly get expensive. Then there’s the issue of arriving at your destination and pulling out a bunch of wrinkled clothes. The last thing you want to do is look like a slob or have to iron all your clothes.
If you want to avoid all these travel packing nightmares you need to re-learn the art of packing. This Handimania video teaches a way of how to efficiently fold and roll shirts up into convenient, travel ready bundles. The shirts will stay wrinkle free and take up minimal space, leaving you room to pack even more stuff.
Lay a tee shirt out on a flat surface and smooth away any wrinkles. Grab the bottom hem where the seams meet on the two sides and fold the bottom 2-3 inches of it inside out. Rotate the shirt on it’s side and fold one side over about a third of the way, so that the crease meets at the neck opening, then fold back the sleeve onto the part you just folded over.
Take the other side and fold it the same way, with the crease/fold falling in line with where the neck opening is on that side, and fold back the sleeve again. You should now have a long, rectangular shaped tee shirt. Starting from the top on the shirt, begin to tightly roll it up, going all the way towards the bottom.
Take one side of the inside out bottom part of the shirt and turn it right side out while folding it over the rolled up portion. Do the same to the other side and you should end up with a tight and secure bundle.
Now all you have left to do is pack up the rolled tees and enjoy your trip. There are other methods for efficiently packing different articles of clothing, but this tee shirt one deals with the most commonly packed item.
It’s the easiest and most convenient method to master that we have seen by far. Hopefully it will save you some space and make traveling a little more stress free. Be sure to check out the video and share it with friends and family because it can only benefit everyone!
