- This video is about how to use packing cubes. I share some packing tips and packing hacks using packing cubes and travel bags when packing a suitcase.
The clothes in this video normally reside in my minimalist closet. You can watch my minimalist closet tour here if you missed it: • Minimalist closet tour...

I love packing cubes and couldn’t believe how much easier traveling had become the first time I used them. Not only are they great for your luggage, but when I travel, I like to unpack once I reached my destination. Now I just place the packing cube in a drawer, unzip it so clothes can ‘fluff up’ and I’m done. I will never travel without them. Lovely video.
I’ve been using the packing cubes for a few years. So easy to find what you need at a glance. No more embarrassing mess if airport security need you to open your case. Everything is packed in little cubes and bags. Nothing rolling around in the case. Thanks for sharing. 😀
Ooh, I didn't even think about that! It's like wearing clean underwear in case you end up in the hospital!
So satisfying to watch this! And I'm not even going on a trip anytime soon! Loved the music! Tranquil yet happy!
I'm so glad you liked it!
This video was incredibly relaxing to watch. The color palette is so easy on the eyes. I love the look of everything. The music was hypnotic and soothing. Ahhh 😌... and I really enjoy using packing cubes as well. Great video!
Finally! Someone who knows how to fold clothes! ;)
Great news! They ship internationally! I’ll be able to order these! So excited! Thanks for posting this video again!!!!
I love packing cubes, they make the process of packing so much easier!
I do pretty well with packing minimally; with mix and match pieces. Would love to try some of the packing cubes. Thanks for sharing.
I'm a packing cube convert after this for sure!
Love, love, love packing cubes. 💕Great video Benita.
Thanks so much, Debbie! And I'm obsessed with these cubes now!
Loved this video from the written intro alone! Thanks Benita!
Your videos increase the level of my OCD satisfaction 😍
Hahaha! Thanks for watching!
Excelente. Desde que utilizo cubos para empacar, mis viajes ⛴🛩estan mas organizados. Todo es rápido y sencillo. Menos complicaciones....mayor felicidad😎
I used packing cubes on the recent short getaway so I’m already a convert. This video was an excellent refresher for me and my upcoming international trips. Thanks Benita👍
perfect and so satisfying. you are always an inspiration
omg I love it... the dedication you give to that is great
Thank you so much!
Packing perfection 👌🏻😘
Thank you so much!
I had never heard of packing cubes. There many good ideas, will help me because I have a week long trip planned soon. Thank you
I loved trying them, so useful!
I swear by packing cubes and this was really satisfying to watch :,)
I'll never travel without again!
Thanks Benita! love this idea!
Thanks so much for watching!
I love this kind of organisation ! I'm so satisfaying to watch your videos !
I'm so glad to hear that!
Awesome ! By chance came across your packing tips 😄Absolutely perfect, just what I was looking for . Thanks Benita 💝
This was great Benita - I love packing cubes! I wouldn't travel without them now.
I also can't imagine just tossing things straight in the suitcase after this!
So beautiful calm and aesthetic to look at. 🧘🏼♀️👍🏻
Perfect!!!
I’ve been folding my clothes this way since I was 9. My mother wouldn’t have it any other way. Great job n the cubes are cute.
This was somehow one of the most useful and somehow relaxing videos I have ever seen. Thank you
So perfect. I want to try packing cubes now!
I don't think I will ever be able to travel without again!
This was useful - Thanks.
Thank you, I'm so happy you found it useful!
Soo satisfying to watch I love it 😍😍😍😍😍😍
Ummm… I just love the music, so calming and travely😆
I also use drawstring bags/ditty bags and small soft cases for all the little bits and pieces, but I've actually never tried packing cubes -- this video has definitely intrigued me to try them next time I travel :) Using similar folding, rolling, and stuffing techniques, though, my greatest achievement for packing was getting everything I needed for two weeks in Sweden and Ireland into one carry-on and one backpack -- including my shampoo and soap (both in bar form to avoid liquid constraints as well as buying these products abroad).
That sounds amazingly compact and minimal! I love it!
@@BenitaLarsson That trip actually was my first experience dressing in a minimal/semi-uniform way and I fell in love with it! It really was the first time I ever critically considered what I had in my closet versus what I actually wore, and made me realize I don't need to buy into fast fashion to look good and be happy. Also, let's face it -- travelling without worrying about baggage fees and waiting for suitcases is so much better than paying for your suitcase to have a ticket and then worrying it might not show up when all you want to do is get out of the airport!
Ciao Benita adoro tutti i tuoi video! Piano piano li sto guardando tutti… Mi è piaciuto molto questo dove utilizzi i cubi da viaggio però il sito che indichi non si può visualizzare e su Amazon ci sono troppi cubi che come dimensione non mi sembrano adatti. Potresti indicarmi le dimensioni dei tuoi 8 cubi che mi sembrano perfetti?
Thanks for the tips.
Thank you for watching!
Me I only use Nomad Lane Bento bags for carry on. It has a lot of compartments and a trolley sleeve. It's my favorite!
Very helpful!
I am travelling to new Zealand later this year will definitely give the packing cubes a go
You won't regret it!
I simply love your channel 🌷🌷🌷🌷
I’m so happy to hear that!
Tanbien las bolsas Ziploc en diferentes tamaños ayudan mucho para organizar. Tener visible su interior evita que lo necesario se extravíe.
love love love!
Aww, thank you so much!
damn, this is sooo satisfying
Thanks so much! I'll never leave without them!
so relaxing to watch this that I almost fell asleep :-) next time i cant sleep, I will rewatch :D
❤️ to use cubes when packing
Love this!! I wasn't sure how all of the cubes would fit in the suitcase but they worked perfectly! Could you show us your carry on (purse) that goes with the suitcase sometime? When I pack my carryon for the plane, it feels like many individual things rolling around my bag, and I'd rather be super organized instead!
Lea Ann Beck Thank you so much!😘
I'll make a note on the carry on request!
Amazing work
Thank you so much!
@@BenitaLarsson your welcome wish that good packing
Thank you💖
Thank you for watching again!😘
this video did something to me
I love packing cubes
I learned to love them while making the video! So cool and useful!
Oh, I really love these packing cubes. I travel a lot and these packing hacks are so satisfying. :) Unfortunately my next trip is on Monday already - destination China. No time for buying these packing cubes. :-(
Ooh, China! Have fun, it's an interesting place to visit for sure!
Thanks for another video, Benita. I love them all!
I'm so happy to hear that!
i love it
This is such a relaxing video. I'm going to use the Marie Kondo folding method because I'm just not a good roller. Rolling also wrinkles my clothes more. I then have to iron when I get to my destination. That's not fun at all.
I avoid ironing all together if I can avoid it😬 Not a fan!
All I can say is" great job mate,"‼️
Thank you so much!
I really wish that ORGANISTA shipped to the states. I love the underwear bag!
It is the best! I'm sure they're working on reaching beyond Europe!
it is so simple, you could make your own.
Hey Candis! Good news, we offer free shipping to the States on orders over 130 USD now. Check out organista.com for more. Take care
I like your music choice
Slippers should be in a plastic bag before placing it into the packing cube. This will dirty the packing cube and causes all items inside as well.
Omg i was thinking the same thing and cringed. I really cannot stand people letting whayever footwear that touches nasty surface contaminaye my other clean stuff and clothes.. Theres always a plastic bag somewhere or newspaper to wrap them in
Slippschitts Hey XD
Slippschitts Hey 😂😂😂 Ur disgustingly funny
Love the video 😍 I was wondering were that zipper pouch is from? (at 6.54 in the video)
Tits from the same place as the packing cubes, organista.com
Amazing. I wanna see how you pack your toiletries though...
Thank you! I’ll add that to my list of video ideas!
@@BenitaLarsson cant wait 😋😋
Väldigt lärorik video och glad påsk!
Tack och glad påsk! 🥚
This video is super
Hi! I loved the video so satisfying 😍 I was wondering if the packing cube set you did not keep was beige or taupe? Thank you?
The beige!
@@BenitaLarsson thank you!!!
You love all shades of grey!!
I do!
Benita Larsson - so do I. When my inner circle complains, I cheat with an orange or an apple and say that I have color in my life. They don’t understand my appreciation for grey.
I loved the idea of packing cubes...till I tried them. My preference now is to keep my clothes items on hangers and then bundle them with the hook of the hangers in plain sight. When I reach my destination I grab the hangers, give my clothes a shake and hang them up. I grab the toiletry bag and hang that too. Unpacking completed.
Undies, shoes, digital and ephemera organisers may or may not stay in my port depending on the length of my stay at that particular location.
What size cubes did you end up putting in the case? Was one side xl and l? And the other side 2 small or a medium and small? I'm really thinking to get these. Love your video.
To be honest I can’t remember. I played around with a set of both colors and tried different variations. I do think the XL is the one I won’t get the most use of. I would use that to pack really big items like jackets but I tend to only bring one and wear it when I travel.
Happy to hear you like our products, please do reach out if we can help you with anything. We offer free shipping in Europe on orders over 130 EUR and World Wide over 130 USD. Take care
Somuch easier with childrens clothes....my daughter put her daughters fibe to seven outfits in one large cube and was brilliant...😊😊
loved your grey sweater you packed, where is it from?
That video is 5 years old but I think you might mean a sweater from Samsø Samsø. I still have it. It now sports elbow patches 😅
Love these cubes Benita! Where can I purchase them?
They're from organista.com/
so neat (as a pin)... when i used to travel i used ziplog bags (big ones and medium ones) for a similar method - this is before packing cubes were 'invented' .... so are you going on a vacation? ;o
I wish I were really going somewhere but I'm just fictitiously sneaking of with my nonexistent lover :)
Did you pack more than one pair of jeans or pants? I must have missed any others. Love your style.
Two pairs of jeans and a denim skirt! And thank you!
Hi Benita, I went to see if I could buy the packing cubes you used but they aren't in the travel or organization section of your Amazon Shop.... or if they are I couldn't see them.
They’re from organista.com/en-gb
We watched it together with mom, so thumbs up multiplies 2 ;-)
Aww, thank you so much!
Benita Larsson ♥
ten years ago without know everything about marie condo i learn to pack my clothes that why, ai speak about that with my friends, they told me find a real job never again
Which size suitcase? I am going to go order those packing cubes right now...and maybe the suitcase too!
Here's the Swedish link link resväskor.se/stor-resvaska/brics-capri-78cm-stor-gra/ and I think this is the manufacturer's link www.brics.it/en-gb/catalog/detail/large-capri-trolley/brk08032?ic=lmqXSg%3D%3D&icf=155 the dimensions differ slightly in the descriptions but you get the idea
Slippers/shoes - heel to toe side by side. Also, I giggled - I take less with me for six to eight months and that includes a "Dressy Outfit"!!
Where did you get the packing tubes?
They're from Organista.com
For a point of reference, what is the rough capacity of your travel bag?
Here's the Swedish link link resväskor.se/stor-resvaska/brics-capri-78cm-stor-gra/ and I think this is the manufacturer's link www.brics.it/en-gb/catalog/detail/large-capri-trolley/brk08032?ic=lmqXSg%3D%3D&icf=155 the dimensions differ slightly in the descriptions but you get the idea.
Whats the brand of your black packing cubes?
They're from Organista!
I put all footwear in plastic bags for sanitary purposes
Good job. Packing shoes is always a problem for a man, big and heavy. I am a work in progress. Ha, Ha.
Soooo No need to roll the jeans ro put into the packing cubes?
Depends on if you mind creases in a couple of spots from folding or not.
How many items of clothing in total did you pack; and what size of the suitcase please
This was 3 years ago so I can’t remember unfortunately.
2 pair of pants & 8 tops? What kind of trip was this? 😳
Can you link the travel bags and pouches> your current link doesnt work :(
This is the brand organista.com/collections/packing-cubes
I hope your fictitious lover lives in Reykjavík so you get to go there often
I hope so too! 😂
Does he have a fictitious brother?
What BRAND are these cubes?
They’re from Organista!
'Marie kondo' style? That's how people have been smartly packing their laguages for ages.
LoL @ Rendez Vous...
Not very minimal, so much more could be fitted. I've been rolling my clothes since the 80's. There were no packing cubes or compression bags at that time, however, I use to use large sized Ziploc storage bags and remove as much air as possible. I would roll my clothes then have one bag be under garments, one bag for t-shirts, one or two bags for long sleeve, button shirts and sweatshirt, etc... I did a week in Boston, MA in just a gym bag also did 4 days at Disney World in a duffle bag with lots of room for souvenir including a Grand Floridian heavy terry spa robe.
I have tried rolling, cubes, konmarie and folding but settled on keeping my clothes on hangers and bundling them.
I have donated my bigger ports and have what the Amercians call a large cabin bag but here in Australia it is considered checked luggage. I pack 12 to 15+kg now.
I have tried to reduce what I pack to a cabin bag but with no weight consistency between airlines I gave it up as a lost cause. We used to have a 10kg cabin allowance which was doable for me but not now it is 7kg.
My old two wheeled cabin bag was 1.6kg so that meant I could take 5.4kg of stuff. The new bag is 1.9kg so that is 5.1kg. Yes I do wear my heavier items on the plane but it was too traumatic for me.
Have you ever used packing cubes in daily life to organize your closet?
I haven’t, I already have SKUBB organizers from IKEA that work in a similar way.

this video is too much slow
LINDAJNG thats the whole point. We watch them for relaxation.
I can never understand why anyone would ever want to pack footwear with their clothes especially underwear. Think of all the things that footwear may have stepped on. Disgusting!!!
Perfect!
Thank you so much!
