I just found you two, and you're adorable! Thank you for this video. We're (my husband and me) are flying to Florida but this'll be my first time using packing cubes. This was super helpful!
First time watching these two but they're totally cute! I'll watch just because of that!
Great video. Thanks for doing. Just bought some cubes and will be using them this weekend for the first time.
That's fantastic, please let us know how you like them!
Packing cubes have been a game-changer for me. I was amazed how much I could get into one cube. In one medium cube I had everything for 3-4 days. 3 leggings, 3 light tunics, 1 long, light cardigan, 1 dress, underwear, a bralette, 3 pairs socks, and 1 sleepshirt.
We couldn't agree more - packing cubes have been an incredible asset for easy travel for both of us!

Thanks for the tips.
Great video ladies! I would totally put the blue jeans in the blue cube too! I love colour co-coordinating! These are great tips! I am going on holidays in next month and am looking for all the help I can get!
Love to hear that you color-coordinate, too! We hope this series gives you a little packing inspiration - have a wonderful trip!
I like to fold my clothes konmari style and "file" them in the packing cubes, it works really well!
Yes, file folding in the cubes is extra perfect!
When I saw how deficient my clothes folding skills are, I realized why I can't have nice things.
thouroughly enjoyed this thanks
Thank you so much Maria!
very helpfule!
Thank you Lee!
What tote brand did you use for a carry on?
Thanks girl! Great tips! I suffer of over packing!
We've all been there :)
@@PracticallyPerfect 😂😂😂
They look like they are just patient with each other
Being friends helps tremendously :) There's a lot of fun at Practically Perfect
I love your sofa...would you be able to provide the link?
This room is incredibly well lit. Did you use any external lighting or is it all from the windows? Either way, it's a gorgeous room. Awesome packing tips too!
Thank you so much! The room was just lit with the window lighting :)
Hey I love your organization videos. Unfortunately for me there is no time to use packing cubes because they arive 1 week after I am back so to late is there an easy organized way to keep my clothes in my small suitcase?
We would definitely advise file-folding your clothes - it will make it easier to see what you have and not have to pull additional items out to access what you need.
If you really want to divide + group your items, you can also re-use any bags you might already have on hand, until your packing cubes come in.
I’m moving to CO and have two shot cases and a carry on to fit ALL my stuff in. Idk if that’s even possible but wish me luck!
We wish you luck with all that packing and hope you have a great move Bethany!
Thank you! Do you have any tips on organizing your suit case with shoes and such? They just seem to take up so much space.
Shoes can be tricky - placing them at the bottom of the suitcase heel to toe, with the soles facing out (the way they come in shoe boxes) helps give them a slimmer profile.
hello, I’m going on holiday tomorrow do you think you could tell me what’s the best way to pack all my stuff? wasn’t sure if rolling or folding but don’t want my clothes too creased
Mia Ullson PLEASE READ ITS AN EMERGENCY:
So this have noting to do with this vid but does anyone know do I need to put my toiletries in a clear bag or no bc I have a normal pink bag I use and I want to put all my lotions Shampoos etc in there but can I? I am taking a carry on luggage so?? I was thinking of putting my bag in my moms medium size luggage or will she still get caught and need to throw it away. Question is do I need to use a clear bag for all of my toiletries in a carry on luggage?
Hi Mia, I'm sorry we missed this before your holiday. It does depend on the fabric, and the way you pack it into your bag. We recommend trying out a few options to see what you like best. If you choose to fold, just be sure to fold along the natural creases as much as possible, and if you roll, consider rolling items with a protective layer (like tissue, dry cleaner bags, etc.) to help reduce wrinkling.
❤❤
Thanks for the love!
@@PracticallyPerfect Thank you soo much for responding!!
Does these work well for us in a small backpack..... I'm using economy airlines and just wanted to know?
Hey Kenni! We think these are great for backpacks - one of our team members travels by backpack when she flies and loves them. They create extra room and just help contain and segment your items.
It is really good, minimize the wrinklesss..
So glad this method is working for you!
Do you put the worn clothes right back into the cubes? Or do you just stuff them directly into the suitcase after you have worn them?
Are the cubes washable?
Hi Verena! Generally we recommend packing a slim, foldable laundry bag, to help collect your dirty clothes once you get settled. Or you can dedicate a packing cube to those clothes, once it's empty. The packing cubes are washable, they just require a line dry!
There are also double sided cubes that have clean and dirty sides
Do u have any cubes recommended?
Absolutely! Eagle Creek cubes are usually our go-tos:

Do these prevent wrinkling of clothes?
It does for a number of fabric types! But natural fibers definitely wrinkle more easily, so using tissue paper (or a file fold, to limit the number of lines/wrinkles) may be better depending on the items.
But we love this tip for the space saving hack the most!
can you tell me what size these cubes are? Medium and Large?
Hi Karen! Yes, they are medium and large for this video.
OMG Joni sorta looks like Neve Campbell; her laugh is so similar to Neve’s laugh 🤭
Is that background real? Why does the backyard not move at all?
Trust me it is! I zoomed in and looked! 🤣
Is this about packing cubes or tissue paper?
Packing cubes! With a little extra tissue paper love :)
Folding clothes on the floor, on carpet … 😩
You caught us! :)
We normally do this on the bed, but it's a little bit awkward to film it that way -- hopefully you'll forgive us for using the floor!
Practically Perfect Then why not lay a clean sheet or drop cloth on the floor to work on.
Idk looks like a pretty clean carpet to me lol 😆
This was not helpful at all. Lots of blah, blah, blah, then you showed how to fold/roll 3 items, then went into the high speed fast forward that doesn't explain anything. So, I still don't know how to properly use packing cubes in a suitcase.
How can these women even think of rolling their close on the floor? Are you kidding me?
Hi there! Great question - we normally do our packing and folding/rolling on the bed when we travel, but it just wasn't conducive for filming. We hope you'll forgive the floor packing!
Joni... oh dear, such terrible vocal fry. Ugh.Get rid of that distraction!
