How do YOU use your Spooneez?

So, we've been told Spooneez can be used in a variety of ways, not just to carry dirty spoons/utensils, baby food, wipes, etc. Some use, even the Original size, to carry their child's toothbrush and toothpaste (although I think you'd have to be stashing a small toothbrush and travel-size toothpaste), medicine, bug bite cream, hand sanitizer...the list goes on. It has been neat to hear about how Spooneez can be so versatile - who knew??

However, one of the sweetest "How do YOU use your Spooneez?" responses we have received, was from my nephew Liam who is 2 years old. He does not like his food touching yucky surfaces and so his Mommy, being very smart, turned his Spooneez into a placemat!! She sent a picture of a proud Liam, eating his snack at the pool, keeping his food from getting gross thanks to his very own Spooneez!

I think he has opened a creative can of worms...Robin & I may be looking at a new Spooneez spin-off in the near future! Thanks Liam :)

Oh, and we HAVE to ask - How do YOU use your Spooneez? Email us (Maythi or Robin) and let us know! And if you have not yet bought your Spooneez, what are you waiting for?? Go to www.rollupthemess.com to order online.

The evolution of Spooneez

We thought it would be fun to take a look back at where we started & how far we've come! All our prototypes, from the very first one my Mom sewed, to our final product. It took several years, a lot of trial and error, much research, several broken sewing needles, many kinds of fabric, and indispensable advice & encouragement. But most of all, lots & lots of hard work and love.

Enjoy as we present to you, the evolution of Spooneez...

New Patterns

WOW!! So much has happened I don't even know if I will remember to include it all!!
Robin and I have been doing some major marketing, working on finding a local manufacturer, ordering some MAD fabric, and filling many more Spooneez orders than we anticipated (this is a good thing!).

In the process, we have learned so much and know this is only the beginning. We have sold out of a few patterns, but will be restocking some and replacing others. Our fabric manufacturer is discontinuing some of the fabrics we had chosen, so we had to regroup and create some new pattern combos we hope you will LOVE!! I will include them on this post so you can have a sneak peek. Hopefully none of these will be going anywhere anytime soon!

On a sales note, we had our first online sale this month (a shout out to Massachusetts) and are excited to announce that starting tomorrow, Spooneez will be available at O Baby Organics in Winston-Salem (next to Whole Foods) and Accessorize This in Lewisville.

We continue to work hard at creating a wonderful product. As always, we thank everyone for their unending support, advice, and encouragement. We could not have gotten to where we are without our families and our friends.

Keep rolling up the mess & helping us spread the word!

Cheers,
Maythi & Robin

Roll up the mess!

Our website is up & running! Visit www.rollupthemess.com to check out our products.

Thank you again to all of you who attended the Open House. It was a great success and we are excited to now offer products online.

The pre-website launch pricing was our introductory Spooneez offer! We have had a wonderful response and are working with a local manufacturer who is helping us sew our Spooneez. We continue to offer what we believe to be a reasonably priced product. Robin's sewing shop is down to part-time employment. I know she is relieved!!

We hope all of you will share our website with your friends and family and thank you again for all your support and encouragement as we trek along this adventure!

Cheers,
Maythi & Robin

And the winner is...

The winning name for our limited edition pattern is: Lil' Rascal




Congratulations to Ildi Revi for submitting the winning entry. We will be emailing further details on your free Spooneez!

After much thought, Robin & I decided that our pattern names should be influenced by the little people who inspire us the most, our beautiful children! In fact, Maria, Robin's oldest, picked her favorite fabric and named it all by herself!! I think we have an entrepreneur in the making :)
