    I have bundle packed for years. Stuff that doesn’t wrinkle gets folded in a packing cube. I travel with wrinkle release spray instead of an iron.

      Hi Sandy - I haven't tried the wrinkle release spray yet but I'm going to need to. I will be on a cruise in the Med later this year and they don't allow irons or steamers on board. Is there a particular brand you like more than another? 😎😎

      I get the Downy wrinkle release because I can find it in travel size at Target or Bed Bath & Beyond. The generic could be put in a travel spray bottle.

      @@MiaHessMusic Works okay for cotton and linen, not as good as steaming/ironing. Never tried on silk. The trick is to smooth items with your hands after spraying and let them hang up.

    Thanks for another great video, Lori. 😊 Because of you, I had my very first carry on only trip last week. I packed a capsule and only took two pairs of shoes. It was amazing and freeing. I loved not having to wait for a checked bag and it was so easy to navigate my little suitcase through the airport. I would so appreciate a worksheet!! Hugs from 🌺Mary in Florida. xx
