We all love bringing tiny trinkets from our holiday back home, but some of the souvenirs that travelers enjoy collecting have a tendency to break easily. If you’re looking for a way to keep your snow globes and shot glasses safe and sound in your suitcase, consider using one of these easy hacks.

Bubble Wrap

Using bubble wrap is the best way to protect your fragile souvenirs from breaking in half. Most local vendors will wrap your items right away, but if they don’t – don’t be shy to ask them for some, because it will save you the trouble.

Paper

Paper can also protect your wine glasses, mugs, ceramics and other glassware from cracking and it’s easy to get by. If you’re running out of bubble wrap and don’t have time to buy some more, just grab a copy of local newspapers and get to work.

Clothes

If you’re running out of room in your suitcase, bubble wrap and protective boxes will end up taking extra space that you can’t afford. That’s why you should consider wrapping your precious souvenirs with your clothes. Consider putting them inside a plastic bag first, just in case anything breaks.
