LIFE CHANGING Amazon Car Organization Hacks 🚗

I'm about to have my third baby and I will have three car seats in the back seat here and so as I'm going through all sorts of irrational nesting things I was like I need to get this car extra organized and listen I have like a 2011 2010 2011 Subaru Outback this is not some like brand new fancy huge huge huge car and all of these little hacks and products have made keeping this car so much more organized let's dive into it [Music] hold on I feel like I should put on lip gloss really quick okay first up is making more use of my cup holder space I got this like cup holder extender essentially and this thing is so smart because it pushes your cup holder up so you still have a cup holder and you have somewhere to put your cup but it adds some additional storage to the side of it and I love this because typically I'm like cramming lots of stuff into my cup holder and it's like overflowing so now I still have a spot for my cup but I can also slide in my cell phone I can slide in gum or lip gloss or like receipts or whatever is a little bit extra space in my car all right this next pack I have to call out Kelly from the car Mom I found her on Instagram but she actually has a YouTube channel and she's super close to a hundred thousand so you should definitely go over and check her out and give her a follow-up but she posted a reel a couple weeks ago and I was actually mad that I had never thought of this and she was talking about the glove box as being this under utilized spot for organization and she's like what do you have in your glove box probably your registration and like your car owner's manual right and I was like yeah Kelly that is what I have in there and she was like it's not that you shouldn't have this stuff in your car but does it really need to be in this Prime real estate location and I was like no Kelly no it doesn't so I actually went into my glove box and I had so much I had like my user manual obviously my registration but I also like literally every time I had had anything done to this car over the last like 12 years that I've owned it or 10 years or however long I've owned it I had every single one of those pieces of paper I took all of like the paperwork stuff that doesn't need to be with me put it in our file cabinet that we keep in the basement with like our paperwork and our taxes and like health forms I also had like the CD ROMs for the navigation from like when I bought it I'm pretty sure those like don't even I don't even need those anymore anyways cleared all that out now I have just a little packet with my owner's manual and my registration which I easily could store somewhere else literally like in the trunk somewhere put it in one of the back flaps somewhere and now you have an entire glove box that you can store with stuff that's at easier access so especially if you're a mom you know things like wipes Kleenex snacks extra water bottles but even if you're not a mom what other stuff would be more helpful for you to have at Arm's Reach than the owner's manual that you never look at microbox is actually pretty roomy I feel like compared to some glove boxes I actually just kept my owner's manual in there because it didn't take up that much space and then I used the rest of the space for changes of clothes for my kids both of my two older ones were potty trained now so we're not carrying around like diaper bags but it's nice to have a change of clothes my hot tip is I always keep their change of clothes either in a wet dry bag which I love wet dry bags because if the cake gets dirty the dirty clothes can go in the wet compartment and clean clothes stay in the dry compartment or if you're not going to do that at least put them in a Ziploc bag because if you're changing your child out of clothes it's probably because the other clothes are dirty so this way you can take the dirty clothes put them into the zip lock and then the clean clothes are good anyways I digress moving right along I I got this sort of like canvas bin I love this thing because it is so versatile so you can essentially extend it all the way open have two big large compartments for storing stuff it's got little inside pouches but I also love it because you can collapse it and use just one side so if you don't need like the whole width of it all of the time and it has two tethers so for safety you obviously put this in the trunk you can tether it be great for bringing groceries home and whatever but this also will fit in your front seat as well so like 95 of the time I drive my car there's nobody in the front seat I've got me driving and the kids in the back and so having some stuff that's accessible to me right next to me especially with small kids is really helpful again I'm talking about things like they need a snack they want a water bottle somebody sneezed and snot is everywhere and they need a Kleenex or whatever it's so nice to have the stuff right out of grass but also a lot of times when I get in my car I'm just kind of like throwing a few like random things down on my seat depending on what I'm doing that day like literally today I have my headphones my camera that I'm using for for filming and then like my little pencil case that I keep my USBs in and usually they would just like sit on the seat and roll around but having this here contains everything so I can kind of throw my stuff into here and keep it more secure and safe again it has those tethers I literally tether it to my seat so it's not going anywhere it's nice and safe okay next up visor Kleenex holder but this essentially Just Clips on to your visor and holds on to Kleenex obviously again this is a big mom product but I feel like pretty much every time in my car somebody needs a Kleenex or a wipe or there's a spill or like I gotta blow my nose or whatever this just puts them right at an Arm's Reach I can grab them I don't have to use up cup holder space which is where I used to keep my Kleenex or any other like sort of value space it just gets tucked Up and Away absolutely love this the next part of these little clips that are designed literally to like clip onto the metal rod that is on your head rest and then it's sort of like the way it's designed like sits perfectly so that the hook sits nice and flat so this is great for the back of your driver or passenger seat to whether you're creating hooks to like hang a diaper bag or hang your purse or hang some shopping bags I just love the way that it secures this but I also have been using them in my trunk sometimes too I love that this just keeps it clipped and secured in the trunk um and then when I need it I can grab it you can use it to hang your jacket in the winter time whatever next product is drop stop I've been seeing this for a while and I finally picked it up to try out and it's actually really smart it's just these like foam pieces and you can slide them in between your front seats as a special little hole where the seat belt comes through it basically just prevents stuff from falling in between these cracks since I've installed these they've already saved me so many times from random items falling in between these cracks usually my keys or cell phone and then finally I have found my favorite cell phone holder this thing Clips really easily onto any car vent it just Clips on and then you turn it to tighten it and I love this you can just slide your cell phone in like basically with one hand you don't have to mess with any like grippers or like tighteners it swivels all around so you can put it whatever angle you want and it's really easy to have your phone charging while it's sitting there really easy versatile cell phone holder all right my friends that does it for some of my favorite car organization hacks and products my car is so much more just versatile and efficient with these products it just makes life in my car a lot easier I hope that you enjoyed this I hope some of these
