Maker Monday: Create a DIY marker travel pack

Kids love to keep busy on car rides drawing pictures with felt-tip markers. With this week’s Maker Monday activity — a marker travel pack — it’s so much easier to keep them from dropping to the floor and rolling under a car seat. It’s a fun project to make, too.

Maker Monday materials you’ll need:

• 9-inch-by-12-inch foam sheet
• pipe cleaners
• stickers (optional)

Step 1: Fold the foam sheet loosely lengthwise. Make a series of cuts into the fold about 1-inch deep, keeping the cuts about 1-inch apart from one another. Leave about 3 inches uncut at each end. (You will need two cuts for each marker you’ll store in the travel pack that you’re making.) If you are going to store fatter markers in your travel pack, leave more space between the cuts. If you’ll be storing very thin markers in your travel pack, you can keep the cuts an inch apart (or slightly less) and make more of them.

Step 2: Take four pipe cleaners and set them side by side, overlapping about 4 inches. Twist them together in order to make them into one extra-long pipe cleaner (see above).

Step 3: Open the foam sheet and weave the twisted pipe cleaner in an out of the cuts that you made. Push it through until you have an equal length sticking out at each end.

Step 4: Turn the foam sheet over and insert your markers in between the pipe cleaner and foam sheet.

Step 5: Fold the ends of the foam sheet together, pull the pipe cleaner ends together and twist them to keep it securely closed.

Optional Step 6: Decorate your marker travel pack with stickers.

Now you’re ready to bring your markers on car trips or anywhere you go. When using the markers, it can help you stay organized to remove just one at a time and put it back before using the next marker.

All Versions

Instructions from the readme file.

Armor stands with banners will show a variety of useful info when posed. Limitations:= ============= a. As this is a resource pack and can't access deeper data like an addon/behavior pack, there is limited information that this can access. - It cannot detect light levels or be adjusted for game difficulty / simulation distance. b. Entity Render Distance - On bedrock, entities cannot be seen beyond 70 blocks on most devices. - This means the despawn sphere is only just in view when you're outside it. - There are no options to increase this distance so there is no point in making larger despawn spheres as you won't be able to see them. c. FPS - The FPS meter is very fast and looks a little blurry - It's not possible to slow this down with just the resource pack sadly. d. Measure Distance - Again, due to entities not being visible passed 70 blocks, the measure will only work up to 70 blocks away from the armor stand. - If you need to measure longer distances than this, use multiple armor stands. How to use:= ============ Give an armor stand any banner and then change the pose. Currently there are 12 available settings. Features:= ========== Pose 1: Spawn Spheres - 24 Block Radius (Green) & 54 Block Radius (Red) - 44 Radius is the despawn radius with a 4 chunk Simulation Distance Pose 2: Chunk Borders (1 chunk) - Chunk border is aligned to the chunk that the armor stand is inside of - Does not work if the armor stand is placed on a diagnal orientation Pose 3: Chunk Borders (3x3 chunks) - Same as above but shows a grid of 3 x 3 chunks around the armor stand Pose 4: Chunk Borders (5x5 chunks) - Same as above but shows a grid of 5 x 5 chunks around the armor stand Pose 5: Compass - No matter which way the armor stand is facing, the compass will always point north Pose 6: Measure Distance - Great for measuring straight lines, heights and making circles! - Shows the distance to the player (camera) - Using the third person camera will affect the distance as this measures the distance from the armor stand to the camera. - It will measure in all axis and directions Pose 7: Day - Shows the current in game day Pose 8: Time of Day - Shows the time of day (in ticks) from 0 - 24000 Pose 9: FPS - Shows your current Frames Per Second Pose 10: COORDS - Shows the coordinates of where the armor stand is placed - Limited to 99999 blocks in each direction Pose 11: NETHER COORDS - Shows the corresponding nether coordinates of where the armor stand is placed (Overworld X & Z divided by 8) - Limited to 99999 blocks in each direction - If using the experimental version of the pack the coords will be switched when inside the nether, so the Nether coords (Pose 11) will be correct and the Overworld Coords (Pose 10) will be multiplied by 8 - If not using experimental verison of the pack the nether coords (Pose 11) will be incorrect when used inside The Nether. Pose 12: Spawner Radius - Stand the armor stand on top of a monster spawner cage. - Shows two shapes. - A green rectangle around the spawner where mobs will spawn from - A red sphere around the spawner where the player must stand within to activate the spawner

How to install add-ons...

Dealing with zip files....

Most of the downloads on this site will be in the form of a .zip file. The zip file is a compressed folder normally containing a readme file, a licence agreement and the add-on or pack you've downloaded.

First you'll need to open or unzip the zip file somewhere onto your PC or device.

On Windows, you can use Microsoft's built in zip tool , or you can download a zip tool from the internet . I recommend 7-zip as it's free, fast and lightweight .

On mobile you might want to look at downloading a file manager if you don't have one available.

On console you can download the pack to either a phone or your PC and follow the steps below...

Installing on Windows and Mobile

Once you have extracted the zip file, the simplest way to install the add-on or resource pack is to open the .mcaddon, .mcpack, .mcworld, .mctemplate file and let Minecraft install it automatically .

For older packs without a zip file , just open the file you downloaded and Minecraft should load up and install it for you.

Installing on Console...

You can no longer install packs and add-ons directly on to consoles , instead you'll need access to a Minecraft Realm and a version of Minecraft on Windows or Mobile .

Follow the procedure above to install the add-on or pack to your Windows or Mobile version of Minecraft and then add the pack to a new world or a world you want to use on your console.

Upload that world to your realm and then download that world from your realm on your console.

Add-on Conflicts

Some add-ons just won't work with other add-ons!

This is normally because the conflicting add-ons require at least one of the same file. Only one of the add-ons can run in this situation which will make the conflicting add-ons seem broken.

What are Experimental Features?

Experimental features are additional game features for Minecraft Bedrock Edition, that are still under development by Mojang.

They can include new blocks, items and entities but they are mainly for developing third party content such as add-ons, resource packs and maps for the Minecraft Marketplace . They exist for the developers to be able to receive feedback from the public in order to test them and get them ready for production.

Not all experiments will make it into the stable release of the game as they may be determined to be unreliable or unsuitable . Newer experiments are likely to change during development which can have adverse affects on add-ons and worlds which use them.

There are various experiments that are available to be toggled within your Minecraft world settings . Each experiment contains different features that might be required for certain add-ons and maps.

You can enable experimental features on Minecraft worlds, realms and servers and use them in single player and multiplayer.

Are they dangerous?

Not all experiments are dangerous. Some have been around for a long time and are considered relatively stable . Newer experiments are more likely to cause unpredictable results in your game which could lead to crashes or world corruption , but this is unlikely.

Always proceed with caution though! Make backups before enabling experiments on any of your worlds.

Why are some add-ons and packs Experimental?

There are a lot of add-on features within the experimental features that are not available within the stable version of the game. Due to the popular demand of these features, I decided to add some of them into my packs to make my packs more effective and more enjoyable.

How to enable Experimental Features?

For single player worlds, you can toggle them within the world settings screen.

For realms and servers you can check it out on YouTube: How to enable EXPERIMENTAL MODE on REALMS & SERVERS

Having problems?

Each download contains a readme file which you can open with a generic text editor. There are instructions inside the readme files.

Best Colored Pencils And Markers For a Traveling Artist

Creative juices don't have to suffer because you're traveling the world. Capture your inspiration with the best colored pencils and markers.

Spencer Jones • Mar 31, 2023

Inspiration has a way of striking at random. If you’re looking for colored pencils and markers to pack in your suitcase, Travel Noire has some great suggestions.

When you don’t feel like hauling oil paints and brushes, colored pencils and markers are a great substitute. Unlike oil or acrylic paints, you don’t need to worry about needing ventilation, wearing a mask or using an apron to protect your clothes.

Skilled artists can use markers or colored pencils to make art that looks like a painting. Nearly anything is possible with practice and dedication.

Create your next masterpiece with these colored pencils and markers.

Copic Sketch Markers

This pack of markers is perfect for creating a blueprint for your drawing.

The ink is ethanol-based and non-toxic, and the tips are replaceable. Copic Sketch markers have been a favorite of illustrators and other creatives for years, with good reason. Their quality is unmatched.

Each marker has a feather tip on one end and a square tip on the other. This pack of sketch markers includes five variations of neutral grey. There’s also a 0.5-weight multi-liner pen to give your drawing that extra push.

As a suggestion, artists should test these markers out on a small piece of paper first. That will allow you to get a feel for how to blend them. Artists should also consider using a gel pen for an extra bit of razzle-dazzle.

Prismacolor Marker Set

If you’re looking for a marker that allows you to fill broad spaces with vibrant color, you can’t go wrong with the Prismacolor line.

Each marker has a chiseled end, if you need more ink, and a smaller nub for finer details.

You probably won’t need to pack all 72 markers, but they are great to have on hand. The colors are consistent and blend well. They are most compatible with Bristol smooth paper.

Prismacolor Colored Pencils Set

Whether you’re looking to do a quick sketch or a polished drawing, Prismacolor’s colored pencils set can really give your art a professional look. This set has 36 beautiful colors. Unless you apply an inordinate amount of pressure, they won’t break while you’re working on that beautiful landscape or portrait.

Prismacolor colored pencils are best suited for experienced artists.

Reaeon Calligraphy Markers

If you’re into calligraphy, check out Reaeon’s line of calligraphy markers. Take your pick from 34 bright and vibrant colors, including various reds, blues and purples.

These markers are great for aimless doodling in your sketchbook. One side allows you to do brush strokes, while the other has a fine tip. If your child is an aspiring artist, and you want to keep them busy without spending a fortune, the Reaeon markers are an ideal option.

Soucolor Colored Pencil Set

These 72 colored pencils will be delivered to you in an eco-friendly tube that is great for travel. They not only are good for sketching and coloring, but also blend pretty well.

Please note that they are best suited for adults and older children. Some users mention that these are just as good as Prismacolor pencils and cost significantly less. Buy them and judge for yourself.

Can You Bring Markers On A Plane?

Guiding Journeys with Words at TravelingAdvise.com

Can you bring markers on a plane? It’s a question that many travelers, especially art enthusiasts and kids, might ask. Well, get ready to unleash your creativity even at 30,000 feet, because today we’re diving into the colorful world of markers and air travel. So, fasten your seatbelts and let’s explore the rules and regulations surrounding bringing markers on a plane.

Now, before we delve into the nitty-gritty details, let’s get one thing straight – markers are indeed allowed on planes.

However, there are a few guidelines to be aware of to ensure a smooth and hassle-free journey. So, let’s jump in and find out how you can bring your favorite markers along on your next airborne adventure!

Can You Bring Markers on a Plane?

Traveling by plane often comes with a long list of dos and don’ts when it comes to items that can be brought on board. One common question that arises is whether markers can be brought on a plane. In this article, we will delve into this question and provide you with all the information you need to know about bringing markers on a plane. From TSA regulations to tips on packing markers for travel, we’ve got you covered.

Understanding TSA Regulations

When it comes to bringing markers on a plane, it’s important to familiarize yourself with the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) regulations. The TSA considers markers as liquids or gels, which are subject to the 3-1-1 rule. This rule states that each passenger is allowed to bring liquids, gels, and aerosols in containers that are 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) or less per item, all of which must fit comfortably in a single, clear, quart-sized zip-top bag. Therefore, if your markers are within this size limit, you are allowed to bring them on board.

It’s worth noting that markers with a water-based formula are more likely to meet the TSA’s guidelines compared to markers with an alcohol-based formula. Alcohol-based markers may be considered flammable and could be subject to additional restrictions. To be safe, check the packaging or label of your markers to determine the formula or consult with the manufacturer for specific guidelines.

Additionally, it’s crucial to remember that even if your markers comply with the TSA’s regulations, the final decision ultimately rests with the security officer. They have the authority to confiscate any items they deem to pose a potential threat to the security of the aircraft or its passengers.

Packaging Markers for Travel

When packing markers for air travel, there are a few tips and tricks to keep in mind to ensure they are safely stored and easily accessible. Firstly, make sure to place your markers in a clear, resealable plastic bag that adheres to the TSA’s guidelines. This will allow for easy inspection during security screening.

Furthermore, consider wrapping your markers in a protective layer, such as bubble wrap or tissue paper, to prevent any accidental leakage or damage during transit. Placing them in a hard-shell pencil case or a designated marker travel case can also provide added protection.

If you are traveling with a larger set of markers, it may be more convenient to pack them in your checked luggage rather than your carry-on bag. This will not only save space in your carry-on but also minimize the risk of the markers being confiscated during the security screening process. However, be aware of any restrictions on art supplies in your destination country or state, as there may be additional regulations to consider.

Benefits of Bringing Markers on a Plane

Bringing markers on a plane can offer numerous benefits, especially for those who enjoy creative pursuits or have young children. Markers allow for artistic expression and can be a source of entertainment during long flights or layovers. They can be used for coloring in coloring books, sketching, or even creating handmade cards or artwork to pass the time.

Moreover, markers are compact and lightweight, making them an ideal travel companion. They can easily fit into your carry-on bag or personal item without taking up much space, leaving room for other essentials. Whether you’re a professional artist, a doodler, or simply looking to relax and unwind during your journey, having markers on hand can enhance your travel experience.

It’s important to note that while markers can be a fun and useful item to bring on a plane, it’s essential to be considerate of other passengers. Avoid using markers with strong odors that could potentially cause discomfort to those around you. Additionally, be mindful of not accidentally marking or staining the aircraft’s surfaces, as this may result in additional charges or penalties.

Tips for Bringing Markers on a Plane

Here are some useful tips to keep in mind when bringing markers on a plane:

• If possible, opt for water-based markers rather than alcohol-based markers to comply with TSA regulations more easily.
• Invest in travel-size markers or marker sets specifically designed for travel. These often come in compact packaging and are more convenient to carry.
• Check the size and quantity of markers allowed by the TSA prior to your journey to avoid any surprises at the security checkpoint.
• Consider carrying a small notebook or sketchbook with your markers to have a designated space for creative expression.
• If you’re traveling with children, ensure the markers are age-appropriate and non-toxic.
• Remember to pack markers securely to avoid leakage or damage to other items in your luggage or bag.

Can you bring markers on a plane? The answer is yes, as long as they adhere to the TSA’s guidelines and regulations. By understanding the rules, properly packing your markers, and being considerate of other passengers, you can enjoy the benefits of bringing markers on your next flight. Whether it’s for personal creativity, entertainment during the journey, or simply to pass the time, having markers on hand can elevate your travel experience. So gather your markers, pack them appropriately, and set off on your next adventure with artistic inspiration at your fingertips.

Frequently Asked Questions

When it comes to traveling on a plane, many people have questions about what they can and cannot bring with them. Let’s answer some common questions about bringing markers on a plane.

1. Can you bring markers on a plane?

Yes, you can bring markers on a plane in most cases. According to the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), markers are allowed in carry-on bags and checked bags. However, there are a few things to keep in mind. The markers must be non-toxic, as many airlines have restrictions on hazardous materials. Additionally, if the markers have a liquid component, they must follow the liquid restrictions for carry-on items, which means they should be in containers of 3.4 ounces or less and placed in a clear, quart-sized bag.

It’s always a good idea to check with your specific airline before traveling to ensure there are no additional restrictions or guidelines for bringing markers on a plane. While markers are generally allowed, it’s important to follow any rules in place to ensure a smooth and hassle-free journey.

2. Are there any restrictions on the types of markers you can bring on a plane?

Generally, there are no specific restrictions on the types of markers you can bring on a plane. However, it’s important to note that markers with a liquid component may be subject to the liquid restrictions for carry-on items. This means that if the markers have a liquid ink or paint, they should be in containers of 3.4 ounces or less and placed in a clear, quart-sized bag.

Non-toxic markers are generally preferred when traveling to ensure there are no hazardous materials involved. It’s always a good idea to check with your specific airline before traveling to see if they have any additional guidelines or restrictions on the types of markers you can bring.

3. Do markers need to be in their original packaging to bring on a plane?

There is no specific requirement for markers to be in their original packaging when bringing them on a plane. However, it’s a good idea to keep markers in their original packaging or in a secure container to prevent any accidental leaks or spills during travel. This will help ensure that your markers do not cause any damage to your other belongings or to the plane itself.

If you remove markers from their original packaging, make sure to secure them in a way that prevents any leakage or damage. Consider using a plastic bag or container with a secure lid to keep the markers contained and protected.

4. Can you bring a large set of markers on a plane?

In most cases, you can bring a large set of markers on a plane. However, it’s important to keep in mind the size and weight restrictions for carry-on and checked bags. If your set of markers is large and bulky, it may be better suited for a checked bag rather than a carry-on bag to comply with size limitations.

It’s always a good idea to check with your specific airline before traveling to see if there are any restrictions on the size or weight of carry-on or checked bags, as well as any guidelines for bringing larger items such as a large set of markers.

5. Are there any other important things to consider when bringing markers on a plane?

When bringing markers on a plane, it’s important to consider a few additional things. First, make sure the markers are securely sealed or capped to prevent any accidental leakage or damage. Second, be mindful of how you pack your markers to ensure they are easily accessible for security checks. Lastly, check with your specific airline for any additional guidelines or restrictions on bringing markers on a plane to avoid any surprises or issues during your journey.

By following these guidelines and ensuring compliance with any rules or restrictions in place, you can safely bring your markers with you on your next plane trip and enjoy your creative endeavors while traveling.

Can You Bring Markers on a Plane?

Traveling by plane often comes with many restrictions and guidelines on what items you can bring on board. If you’re an artist or simply enjoy coloring, you may wonder if you can bring markers on a plane. In this article, we’ll explore the transportation regulations surrounding markers and provide you with all the information you need to know to bring your markers with you on your next flight.

Transportation Regulations for Markers

When it comes to bringing markers on a plane, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has specific guidelines in place to ensure the safety and security of all passengers. In general, markers are allowed in both checked baggage and carry-on bags. However, there are a few key factors to consider to ensure smooth travel without any issues:

• Size Restrictions: For carry-on bags, markers must adhere to the 3-1-1 liquids rule, which means each marker must be 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) or less, and all markers must fit into a clear, quart-sized plastic bag. If you have larger markers that don’t meet these size restrictions, it’s best to pack them in your checked baggage.
• Water-Soluble Ink: If your markers have water-soluble ink, it’s important to remember that they may be subject to additional scrutiny by TSA agents. While they are generally allowed, you may need to remove them from your bag during the security screening process.
• Sharp Tips: Some markers come with sharp tips that could be considered potential weapons. To avoid any issues, it’s recommended to pack markers with sharp tips in your checked baggage rather than your carry-on to ensure a smooth security screening process.

By following these guidelines, you can ensure that you are in compliance with TSA regulations and enjoy your flight without any complications.

Benefits of Bringing Markers on a Plane

Now that you know the rules and regulations for bringing markers on a plane, let’s explore the benefits of having your favorite coloring tools with you during your flight:

• Relaxation: Coloring has been proven to have a calming and relaxing effect on the mind. Bringing markers on a plane allows you to engage in a soothing and creative activity that can help reduce stress during your journey.
• Passing Time: Flights, especially long-haul ones, can be quite boring. Having markers on hand gives you a productive way to pass the time, whether it’s coloring in a coloring book or journaling in a travel diary.
• Creative Outlet: If you’re an artist or enjoy expressing your creativity, having markers with you means you can continue working on your art even while traveling. You can sketch, color, or create intricate designs on the go.

By bringing markers with you on a plane, you can turn your flight into a more enjoyable and productive experience.

Additional Tips for Traveling with Markers

While you now have a clear understanding of the rules and benefits of bringing markers on a plane, here are a few additional tips to ensure a smooth and hassle-free travel experience:

Pack Extra Supplies:

Make sure to bring extra markers, as well as coloring books or sketchpads, in case you run out of ink or feel inspired to create more art during your flight.

Protect Your Markers:

Consider investing in a protective case or container to keep your markers safe and organized during the flight. This will prevent any damage or leakage that could ruin your other belongings.

Respect Other Passengers:

Frequently Asked Questions

In this section, we will address common questions regarding bringing markers on a plane.

1. Are markers allowed on a plane?

Absolutely! Markers are generally allowed in both carry-on and checked baggage. However, it is crucial to ensure they meet the specific regulations set by the Transportation Security Administration (TSA). When packing markers in your carry-on, make sure they are not categorized as prohibited items.

To avoid any issues at the security checkpoint, choose markers that are non-toxic and do not contain hazardous materials. Additionally, it is always good practice to pack your markers in a clear, resealable plastic bag to make the screening process smoother for the TSA officers.

2. Can I bring markers with liquid ink on a plane?

Yes, you can bring markers with liquid ink on a plane. However, similar to any other liquid item, markers with liquid ink are subject to the TSA’s liquid restrictions. According to the TSA guidelines, each liquid item carried on board must be in a container that does not exceed 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and should fit into a single quart-sized, clear plastic bag.

If your markers with liquid ink meet these requirements, you are allowed to bring them on the plane. Just make sure they are placed in the plastic bag for easy inspection during the security screening.

3. Are there any specific rules for bringing permanent markers on a plane?

Permanent markers, also known as sharpies, are generally permitted on a plane. However, they must adhere to the same liquid restrictions mentioned earlier. If your permanent markers contain liquid ink, ensure that they are within the allowed limit of 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and packed in a clear plastic bag.

Furthermore, it’s essential to understand that the final decision on what items are allowed rests with the TSA officer at the security checkpoint. It’s always a good idea to check the TSA website or contact them directly for the most up-to-date information before your trip.

4. Can I take paint markers on a plane?

In general, paint markers are allowed on planes; however, there are some restrictions to keep in mind. Paint markers often contain liquid or gel ink, which means they are subject to the TSA’s liquid restrictions. Make sure the paint markers meet the 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) limit and are packed in a clear plastic bag.

While paint markers are usually permitted, it’s always a good idea to check with the TSA or your airline before your trip, as regulations can vary. Compliance with the specific airline policies is also crucial, so be sure to review their guidelines as well.

5. Is there anything else I should be aware of when bringing markers on a plane?

Aside from complying with the TSA’s rules and regulations, it’s important to note that markers, like any other item, may be subject to additional screening. If a security officer deems it necessary, they may conduct further inspection of your markers. Be cooperative and follow their instructions to ensure a smooth and efficient security process. Remember, the primary goal of these regulations is to maintain the safety and security of all passengers during air travel.

Lastly, it’s worth mentioning that regulations can change over time, so it’s always wise to double-check the latest information from official sources such as the TSA website or by contacting your specific airline before your trip.

So, to wrap things up, we’ve learned that bringing markers on a plane is generally allowed. However, there are some rules you need to follow to make sure everything goes smoothly.

First, make sure your markers are non-toxic and water-based. This means they won’t harm you or others if accidentally ingested. Second, keep your markers in a clear, plastic bag to make it easier for the security officers to check them. Remember to remove any sharp or removable parts from the markers and put them in your checked luggage.

Lastly, it’s always a good idea to check with the airline you’re flying with to see if they have any specific rules about art supplies on board. This way, you can be prepared and avoid any surprises at the airport.

Now you have all the information you need to bring your markers on a plane. So get creative and bring your artwork with you on your next flight! Safe travels!

After visiting more than 60 countries, I have probably been on every type of plane there is and visited countless airports. I did my very first international solo trip to South Africa at the age of only 16 and haven’t really stopped traveling since.

Despite the adventurous travel itch, I do have a nerdy side as well – which is satisfied by writing about all things aviation “too boring” for my regular travel blog.

If You're A Chronic Over-Packer, These 29 Travel Products May Help You Save Space

These genius packing solutions will make you feel like a true travel expert.

BuzzFeed Staff

1. A wheeled carry-on bag  if you'd rather die than pay for a checked bag. This one is small enough to fit under the seat, so it can even qualify as your personal item on extra strict airlines that shall not be named ( you know the ones ). 

Now you won't even have to pull your suitcase outta the overhead!

Promising review : "If you are a consultant and struggle carrying big carry-ons. This is a perfect one for you. I love this purchase!!! Lightweight. Enough space for 1–3 days of travel. Thank you!" — SS

Get it from Amazon for $105.87 (also available in two other colors ).

2. Or a durable  travel backpack  that is, quite possibly, *the* perfect personal item thanks to its waterproof design, anti-theft pocket, USB charging port, and a dedicated shoe compartment. There's room for everything!

This is super roomy, zips completely open (like a suitcase — so it's easy to find what you need), has plenty of pockets (including one for shoes and a separate wet bag!), and a strap that slides down over your luggage handle for easy transport.

Promising reviews: " I bought this backpack for work. It's the BEST backpack I've ever used. I needed one with several pockets and not too big or heavy. I found that with this backpack,  I can fill it and still have room! There's even a shoe and clothing compartment for traveling! The straps are just wide enough to stay on your shoulders, especially with the snap straps in front. I also love the color, and it's true to the picture color. If you're looking for lightweight with tons of pockets, this is what you need!" — Kelly Miller

"This is a perfect size backpack for traveling on a plane as your personal item, especially to international destinations. You could fit rolled-up clothes in here for another week , and it has a very handy shoe bag and tons of places for your electronics. This will be an excellent addition to my carry-on suitcase. Best purchase all year. I consider myself an expert on travel bags. I have way too many. It’s smaller than it looks but so roomy." — AP

Get it from Amazon for  $36.99  (available in three sizes and 26 colors/styles).

3. A  digital luggage scale  to help you pack the essentials without incurring any overweight bag fees. You won't be filled with dread when you head to the airport because you already know your bag is under the weight limit!

Promising review: "Buy this if you travel a lot. I travel with scuba dive gear and this saved me from going over the weight limit both going to the island and returning. I was a hero with my friends. They had no idea how much their bags weighed. I helped them too from going over their weight limit. It's easy to use and worth the money." — Tinadiver

Get it from Amazon for $11.98  (available in six colors).

4. A travel wallet  for a sensible *and* stylish way to carry important documents so they don't take up space in your carry-on bag. Passport? Check. Boarding pass? Check. Credit cards? Check. 

This RFID-blocking wallet has a passport pocket, boarding pass compartment, three credit card slots, an ID slot, a slim card pouch, a slim pocket, a ticket slot, a cellphone pouch, a zippered coin pocket, a key holder, and a pen holder.

Promising review: "This wallet is durable, chic, and spacious. The lining is very soft and feels expensive. From the design to the material to the zippers and snaps, it's well made. I ordered it in rose gold, and it's a beautiful color. I travel frequently and love the boarding pass pocket. I recommended it to my sister and mom, who also love theirs! They ordered in yellow and bronze and were also happy with the color." — Brianna graham

Get it from Amazon for $12.99+ (available in 31 colors).

5. A  set of packing cubes  you'll soon wonder how you ever traveled without. Your clothes will stay nicely folded (or rolled!) and you'll have more room in your suitcase. Expert packing level 🔓unlocked.

Promising review: "I travel frequently and travel light. My luggage is usually limited to a backpack that slides under the airline seat. For a two-week European cruise, I added a carry-on rolling suitcase. I've used these packing cubes twice so far, and I am hooked. One cube holds everything (including clothing) I take on a three-night trip . The cube slides into my pack, saving massive amounts of room, and everything is easy to find during travel and at the hotel. Taking out one cube and unzipping is much better than digging through a pack! I will never leave home without these!" — Gura

Get a set of four from Amazon for $21.99 (available in 12 colors and as a set of eight).

6. Or some  vacuum storage bags  when you're a serial over-packer...or if you simply need to maximize luggage space. Place your items in the bag and suck out the air with the included travel pump. Who says you can't bring multiple outfit options on vacation?

Former BuzzFeed Shopping writer  Jasmin Sandal says: "I swear by these bad boys not only for general storage purposes, but also if I know I'm going to be traveling for an extended period of time. As someone who tends to pack for every eventuality (who doesn't like to be prepared?!) I have learned that it's better to travel with them than without — especially since it's more or less a guarantee that my clothes are gonna take up a ~substantial~ amount of room in my suitcase. And if I can use something that's gonna shrink the size of my bulky hoodies and/or big tees in order for me to create more space, I'm sure as heck gonna do it. Plus, the satisfaction is indeed guaranteed because when you see those chunky layers flatten into a pancake...it's just *chef's kiss* ."

Promising review: "These are the best packing bags. We used them traveling across the country and... to save space in the suitcase! It's really easy to have the pump right inside the suitcase to flatten the bags when traveling for pleasure. I definitely recommend this for home or travel." — kit

Get a three-pack from Amazon for $32.98+ (available in four sizes and in larger multipacks).

7. A Kindle  for bookworms who keep up with their reading habit while on vacation. While packing a giant stack of *actual* books isn't exactly realistic, this compact and lightweight Kindle is a great alternative.

It has a 300-ppi high-resolution display, an adjustable front light, and dark mode. The battery can last up to six weeks on a single charge and it offers 16 GB for storing thousands of books.

BuzzFeed Shopping editor Maitland Quitmeyer says: " I never thought I'd be an e-reader person, but living in a New York apartment with limited bookshelves changed my ways. I love love (love love love) my Kindle — especially for easily borrowing library books, squeezing in a few chapters on a subway ride, and of course traveling. I lit'rally read 10 times as much with a Kindle in my life."

Promising review: "I was so skeptical about switching from actual books to the Kindle but I have loved it!!! It’s so much more convenient to read and travels well. I’ve only had it like two weeks and have only charged it once (have read three books)!! Its battery life is amazing." — Haley

Get the newest 2022 version of the basic Kindle from Amazon for $99.99  (available in black and blue). 

8. A slim and packable  Trtl neck pillow  that'll take up way less space than the round ones. You don't have to sacrifice your comfort just so there's one less annoying item to pack. Goodbye, sore necks and bulky pillows!

The Trtl pillow is adjustable — you wrap the pillow around your neck and secure it with Velcro, and if you find it's too loose, just make it a bit tighter! I've truly never slept better on a plane than with this pillow.

Promising review : "WOW! Literally life changing; used it on my 11-hr flight to and from Norway to SF and I usually can never sleep on planes, but this did the trick! It’s also super packable and doesn’t take up too much space! " — Julie Cox

Get it from Amazon for  $60.99+ (available in five colors).

9. A  carry-on garment duffle bag  for keeping your fancy clothes free of wrinkles while saving room in your luggage for other stuff. If you're attending a formal event and can't bear the thought of ironing or steaming, this'll do the trick.

It's made of vegan leather and includes a 15" padded laptop sleeve, two additional pockets, an external zipped pocket, and a separate shoe compartment!

Promising review: "This garment bag is an exceptional value for the money. Well built, top quality materials, including 'beefy' zippers, should hold up well for airline travel. Minimal wrinkles if any in garments, and a cavernous bag for storing shoes and other items for a trip. Added bonus, it fits easily in the plane overhead storage , similar in size to a standard roller bag. I highly recommend this product." — Kindle Customer

Get it from Amazon for $57.45 (available in two colors).

10. An amazingly compact  travel stroller  if one of your major anxieties when packing revolves around your essential parenting items. This stroller is so dang portable *and* it can count as a carry-on item.

The stroller is supposed to accommodate kids from 6 months up to 55 pounds (approx. 4 years old).

Promising review: "This stroller is great! So cool looking, too. I constantly have moms coming up to me asking where I got this! So easy to fold, so light, and barely takes any space in my trunk. We took it on a flight, and the flight attendants recognized the stroller and told me that I can just wheel the baby on and put the stroller in the overhead bin. I wish I had gotten this stroller with my oldest, but I was being cheap. This stroller is so worth the money. I regret not getting it sooner! But at least my youngest can enjoy it." — Nai Len

Get it from Amazon for $139.99+ (available in eight styles and four colors).

11. A set of TSA-approved  silicone travel bottles  so your toiletries are ready for flight in no time. This set also includes spray bottles and jars for storing other products, like lotions and perfumes.

These BPA-free bottles feature a leakproof design so you won't have to worry about messy spills. Each silicone bottle also has the capacity printed on it for TSA purposes! You get four bottles, four jars, and two spray bottles. It also comes with two scoopers to use with the jars, a funnel for transferring liquids, a clear travel bag, a set of labels, and a cleaning brush.

Promising review : " This little set is perfect for your travel toiletries. Instead of paying $3 for those little travel bottles, you can fill your favorite products in these. The taller tubes are silicone and easy to fill. For the circular containers, I used the little scooper to fill them. I didn't use the spray bottles this trip, but I did use everything else, and I'm happy to say nothing leaked. Easy to clean after use as well. " — Nicole

Get it from Amazon for $9.48+  (available in four colors).

12. Or a  waterproof toiletry bag  designed to hold tons of stuff — it has four compartments so you can pack all your travel-size items. There's also a handy hanging hook so you won't lose track of it!

Promising review: "I. Love. This. Bag. Seriously, I had a cheap toiletry bag from Target that essentially did the same thing, only way worse. It was too small; the hook didn't rotate so you could only hang it at an angle, if anything ever leaked; it would seep right through the bag, etc. But THIS bag has NONE of those issues! It fits everything I need and then some, meaning I don't have to skimp on my 10-step Korean skincare routine when I travel anymore. It never leaks. And I love that the hook swivels so you can hang it anywhere, and your stuff hangs perfectly. I also love the handle and the overall flatter shape. It makes it so easy to travel with! Cannot recommend this bag enough." — KaiEli

Get it from Amazon for $18.39+ (available in two sizes and 11 colors).

13. A  collapsible coffee cup  so you can get your fix without bringing your huge reusable cup from home. This is much easier to pack in your bag!

It's also microwave-safe! Note that the 12-ounce size does not include a straw, but both the 16-ounce and 24-ounce sizes do.

Stojo  is a small biz founded by three New York dads who wanted a better way to get their convenient coffee fix without all the waste. Now they make stylish collapsible essentials in a variety of sizes and colors, including bottles and food storage containers.

BuzzFeed Shopping writer  Danielle Healy has this and loves it. She says : "This is of the first zero-waste swaps I made and I've never looked back. If you buy to-go coffee – whether you're jet-setting or just grabbing a mid-day pick-me-up — this cup is a must-have . So long as you remember to bring it, it's all the convenience of to-go coffee with none of the waste. It's leakproof and, when you're all done, it collapses down teeny tiny and can be tossed back in your bag. Oh! And it comes with a straw, so all you iced coffee lovers can get in on the action, too."

Get it from Amazon for $19.95+ (available in four sizes and in 24 colors).

14. A  space-saving laundry bag  for keeping your dirty laundry separate from your clean clothes. The brilliant design lets you release excess air from the bag to save room in your luggage, which is always needed when returning from a trip with a *few* more purchases than you planned.

Just stuff them in and squeeze to release the extra air!

Promising review:  "As a frequent traveler, this bag has been great for packing dirty laundry on the return trip home. It will hold much more than I usually put in it and compresses nicely in the suitcase . I toss it in the washer along with the clothes, and it has held up for well over a year now." — CC

Get it from Amazon for  $12.15+  (available in two styles).

15. A  travel pill organizer  to ensure you stay on your daily supplement and medication schedule without having to pack a bunch of big bottles in your toiletry bag. It has EIGHT compartments and comes with labels so you know what's what.

Promising review : "I take a daily medication and I like to keep vitamins, supplements, and emergency meds like fever reducer and upset stomach relief with me when I travel. This is compact, feels sturdy, and holds more than I anticipated ." — hw65

Get it from Amazon for $5.97+ (available in five colors).

16. A mini wallet emergency kit  that contains pretty much every *tiny* essential you'll need so you don't have to worry about packing the full-size version. It includes hand sanitizer, pain relief medicine, a hair tie, and more. You can choose the skyline of your fave city for the kit, too!

Here's what it comes with:  Inside your mini wallet, you'll find a lip balm, hair tie, two floss pics, a bandage, emery board, two safety pins, a sewing kit, two earring backs, a makeup wipe, two bobby pins, two mints, deodorant wipe, another cleaning wipe, tampon, hand sanitizer, and pain relief medicine.

Anne Cate is a small Ohio-based business that sells city-skyline-themed accessories and journaling supplies. Their product lineup features 100 hand-designed skylines from various cities and colleges worldwide!

BuzzFeed Shopping writer Danielle Healy swears by this kit and said: "I, your resident forgetful person, bought the NYC skyline version of this at the start of COVID-19 to keep in my work tote. Unfortunately, I haven't touched my work tote in months because...*gestures at the world around*...but it's a really handy kit I know will save me a ton whenever I regularly leave the house again. Everything from Anne Cate is super high quality. The wallet on its own is adorable and could be used for a million different things." 

Get it from Anne Cate for $25  (available in dozens of styles).

17. A pocket-sized, refillable  travel perfume atomizer  because you should never have to travel without your go-to scent. It's easy to use and will take up hardly any space. Pump it on your full-size perfume bottle to fill up the atomizer!

BuzzFeed Shopping editor Elizabeth Lily says: "^ That's me pumping my signature perfume into one of these travel atomizers I've been using for about a year. As the reviewer down below mentions, it's great to just throw in your purse on the reg for a fragrance re-up throughout the day. As you can see, it's about the size of my thumb and therefore takes up very little room. Plus! It's smaller than most rollerball travel fragrances you can pick up. This first one is working so well, that I just have the other three in storage. But if this one bites the dust this summer during travels, I'll be OK about digging into my stores to use one of the remaining three...especially at this price point."

Promising review:  "I bought these due to traveling a lot for work and needing to cut down on the size of things in my carry-on bag for flying. I can bring four different perfumes now instead of one big one. They’re super easy to fill and haven’t leaked so far, but I keep them in a sandwich baggie while traveling just in case. I would 100% buy them again." — Emily

Get a four-pack from Amazon for $7.99 .

18. A  small jewelry case  with enough space for your daily wear items, like necklaces, rings, bracelets, and earrings. It's very compact so you can even carry it in your purse.

Promising review: "I travel a lot for work, and this jewelry box has everything I was looking for! It’s a nice small size and has plenty of storage for necklaces, rings, earrings, bracelets, and even a watch! Very good quality, and I love the color. Highly recommend!!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️" — Morgan

Get it from Amazon for $24.99 (available in 10 colors).

19. A pack of  laundry soap sheets  if you just KNOW there's an outfit you'll want to wear multiple times during your trip. This also allows you to pack lighter since you'll be able to wash a few things, which leaves plenty of room for souvenirs!

Promising review: "This came SO in handy during my vacation to Europe! I was making lots of different stops at places with different types of weather. With these laundry soap sheets I was able to wash my clothes in the sink — letting me pack just the right amount of clothes for all the different places I went." — Katie Fujarski

Get it from Amazon for $9.95 .

20. A convenient  Alleyoop Pen Pal  so you can save space when packing your nearly-exploding makeup bag. It's a 4-in-1 lip liner, eyeliner, brow pencil, and highlighter, so you'll have everything you need in one sleek pen.

It's cruelty- and paraben-free and it's vegan. Plus, the packaging is recyclable!

Alleyoop is a woman-owned small biz that is focused on redefining beauty efficiency. Many of their products are compact and have multiple uses! 

Former BuzzFeeder  Jasmin Sandal  loves this thing: "I didn't realize I'd ever use a makeup product in my twenties that had the ability to transport me back to something I used in sixth grade, but here we are; and here I am using a multitool pen...for my face. I gotta say, I love the concept of the Pen Pal from Alleyoop ! After using all of the functions (eyeliner, highlighter, lip liner, eyebrow pencil) and as someone who LOVES makeup but was applying as little as humanly possible during lockdown, I think it’s a great tool for anyone looking to streamline their routine. It's ideal to use for touch-ups come the end of the work day, or a subtle, minimalist way to apply makeup in the a.m. The brow pencil is particularly soft and pigmented, and filled in my eyebrows quickly. I just adore the ease of application of each product, and appreciate the universal, does-it-all-for-you concept. Plus, it saves me so much room in my already overflowing makeup bag!"

Promising review : "This is genius. I’ve been doing a lot of traveling and I like to keep my packing to a minimum. Not only is this convenient and travel friendly, but the color payoff is fantastic !" — Stefanie S.

Get it from  Alleyoop  (available in three shades).

21. A genius  hanging packing cube  to neatly store your outfits without having to play a game of Tetris when you pack. This has dedicated compartments for each 'fit! When you arrive at your destination, simply take it out of your suitcase and hang it up.

It also has a zipper compartment at the bottom for your dirty clothes so they don't get mixed together and you end up just washing everything when you get home (bc that's usually what happens to me).

Promising review: "I just love it. I travel a lot. Now I don’t have to hang anything up but my organizer. I can see what I pack and where everything is. Just love it. I can fit easily seven days' worth of outfits and three pairs of shoes in a carry-on suitcase.  Just great." — Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $34.99 (available in two sizes and six colors).

22. A genius  Toptote hat clip  because surely you don't want to stuff your precious hat in a suitcase where it'll get all deformed — and take up way too much space. This magnetic clip keeps your hat free of damage *and* prevents you from losing it.

The magnetic clip securely attaches to your hat brim (damage-free) — just hook the gold hexagonal clip around the strap/holder of your choosing!

The Fileist is a woman-owned small biz, formerly known as Lindsay Albanese.

Promising review: "So happy I discovered TOPTOTE! As a hat lover, this product is seriously a lifesaver! I never have to carry my hats now when traveling and its’ magnets are SO strong. I’ve used it to carry multiple hats on my travels with no problem! Definitely a purchase well worth it!" — Adrianna

Get it from The Fileist for $55  (also available in black). 

23. A  travel umbrella  you can quickly open to protect yourself from the rain *and* it'll easily fit in your bag. The inside-out design keeps the wet part inside when you close it, which prevents water from dripping everywhere. It's also windproof, so it won't turn inside out on blustery days.

Promising review : "This is the best travel umbrella I’ve ever owned! It’s very easy to open and close one-handed with the push button. It’s very sturdy and fits nicely in a carry-on or backpack." — C.J.

Get it from Amazon for $20.95+  (available in four sizes and 41 colors).

24. A three-piece luggage set  so you always have *just* the right size suitcase for your next trip, which makes for an easier packing experience. It comes with a carry-on size, a small checked bag size, and a large checked bag size.

These suitcases have TSA-approved locks, 360-degree wheels, interior mesh pockets, and telescoping handles.

Promising review: "My family travels internationally, which means lots of airplane transfers, rail, ferry loading and unloading. Each member has their own set. Only one cosmetic scuff has appeared. About to order another set for my mother as we are taking her to London, Scotland, and Ireland for the holidays. We rarely use the middle size. The small size we carry on, and the largest size we check. Very pleased with maneuvering and durability of wheels on various rough surfaces. The retractable handle makes for easy storage on ferries and railway. We’ve had zero issues with locking mechanism. We are a family of four with kids ages 8 and 12." — ChiefLaughALot

Get a set of three from Amazon for $159.99+ (be sure to clip the $10 off coupon for this price; available in 22 colors and as a four-piece set).

Promising review:  "You can totally fit three pairs of shoes in this! (Size 6.5 female shoe, fit heels, wedges, and sandals.) I bought two and will absolutely be buying more for my husband. 10/10 would recommend! I travel frequently, and I always overpack; this helped cut down space and stress immensely! " — Taylor

Get it from Amazon for $22.99  (available in nine colors/patterns). 

26. A  packing checklist  to replace that feeling of panic with calm as you prepare for your next adventure. This will ensure you don't forget anything and it'll help you pack more strategically. You'll have a clear idea of what needs to fit in the suitcase as you go down the list.

Promising review: "So helpful! I travel a lot, and so does my husband, and this pad makes packing so much easier and stress-free. The list is quite extensive; while I probably will never need to pack all of it for one trip, it covers everything for a business trip or a pleasure trip. I don't worry about what I forgot to pack anymore. Use a pencil, erase it when done, and one sheet will last 3–4 trips." — Cktine

Get it from Amazon for $7  (available in three colors/styles).

27. A mini lightweight flat iron , which is truly the perfect size for traveling. Your hair will stay ~flawless~ and you won't lose a lot of luggage space.

It also comes with a heat-resistant pouch for easy carrying!

Promising review: "This fits perfectly in my toiletries travel bag that I take with me as a flight attendant. Anything that comes in small size and still works well is perfect for me." — Kathy S

Promising review:  "It does as it says it does, allowing my Dell XPS15 to operate a pair of USB devices from my lightning port! The laptop has two USB ports, one of which is always occupied by my USB mouse dongle and the other by my protected USB drive. If I wanted to plug in my phone to switch data or add another thumb drive to transfer a device, everything might have to be disconnected, but not anymore. It was really worth it." — Liberty

Get it from Multitasky for $25  (available in three colors). 

29. A fold-up duffel  when you know for a fact you'll be coming home with more than you originally packed. Pack your purse in your luggage on the way home and use this as your personal item instead!

It folds into a tiny pouch when not in use, is tear and water resistant, and even has a separate side pocket for shoes. There's also a side strap that slides easily over your roller luggage handle.

Promising review: "We bought this to take with us when we visited our daughter who is studying abroad for four months.
