For me that is the best way, that way I'm not looking for this and that, just pack everything into the car. Each container has a typed list of what goes into it, that way when I'm at a hotel room I can check off items. I left a SeaBreeze x-pen at a hotel room....big lesson learned there. Even my suitcase has a 2nd makeup case, the only thing I have to pack into that is my show clothes and shoes.....everything else is there. | Hi Mary,
I was reading this post from another thread and thought it would be appropriate to cross post here since it is about show supplies and very helpful (all of your advice usually is)...
Reading your post, I had to smile...
I just started showing, but I have started doing the same thing.
Start the laundry as soon as I get home and repack everything in it's own corner so it's ready to go.
I still need to aquire enough supplies to have separate stay at home grooming area brushes, scissors, etc and "show/go" things, it just seems I have favorites of certain things.
The lists are a great idea though!
Last weekend, I almost forgot my garment bag/show clothes.
I have 4 grown sons, close in age.
I think travelling and keeping them "together" as toddlers prepared me well for the show ring - it seems to be about organization and preparedness - emphasis on the "PRE"! LOL
Do you pack in those big plastic boxes?
I have seen some people do this... |
