    Your organization is amazing. I have watched many of your videos and I am inspired to organize everything in my home. I have always liked things contained but I am not as clever or creative with my ideas. Some of your simplest suggestions have helped me reorganize my makeup, jewelry, linen closet and pantry.

    I agree, I have found myself taking better care of my things because I see how well she takes cares of her things no matter how expensive or inexpensive they may have been. My daughter also watches so when I talk to her about taking better care of her things (she's 10) I also use Jen as an example.

    @Bturp1 11 років тому

    We travel a lot for my children's travel sports and those Eagle Creek bags are just calling my name...I think it will make packing everyone's suitcase so much easier! Although I am an admitted over packer...and I doubt I would EVER be able to pack for 3 nights into one small carryon, this did give me some great ideas! PS - my carryon would be filled to the top with just shoes :)

  • @lillyandrews6245
    @lillyandrews6245 11 років тому

    I have definitely picked up some very helpful tips from watching your videos think its been just over a week now and I am catching up on the older posts also, notebook in hand. I ordered some ebags a while ago they come in really handy for packing my sons vacay outfits that I put in zip lock baggies so he can just pick one and he has all he needs for a day (shirt, undies, pants and socks) will get some eagle creeks soon. I never thought of a walking pharmacy so thanks for your many useful tips

    Considering how much stuff you usually pack.
    Even after you put everything inside the eagle creek cubes
