The beginning

A crafty hobby turned into a business and zoo&roo was born with a pair of gold mirror acrylic monogrammed earrings.

Spread love everywhere you go! ❤️ Oh these sweet little glitter heart studs! 😍 I’m a lover of big earrings, but these little beauties make a big impact in a tiny package! Now on my website and at @our_moments_in_time in many fun glittery colors. #zooandroo #spreadlove #handmadejewelry #glitterhearts #handmadeearrings #simplestuds #shopsmall #shophandmade #alltheglitter #hollyspringsnc #makersgonnamake #supportthemakers #buyhandmade #mamamaker #mompreneur

Market research time! I’m starting to design some acrylic garden stakes. If you have a garden, please tell me what you grow so I can build my list of veggies, herbs, fruit and flowers. Do people label their flowers? I don’t see why not! I, however, have a black thumb, so my stakes would be “weeds,” “dead plant,” etc. 🤣🍅🌸🥒🌼🍓🫑#callingallgardeners #gardenstakes #zooandroo #whatdoyougrow #vegetablegarden #herbgarden #newproductalert #tomatoplant #greenthumb #makersgonnamake #lasercutacrylic #smallbusiness #shopsmall #shophandmadenc

Processing 2020 for my small business... I loved this email from @glowforge showing how much my laser travelled last year! And it’s not surprising that my top nine products were all ornaments and Dissent earrings. It was a crazy last quarter! 🤪 Perhaps I should start now preparing for Christmas 2021! 🤣 #busybusy #zooandroo #topnine2020 #topproducts #alltheornaments #readyfor2021 #glowforge #lasercut #smallbusiness #shopsmallbusiness #buyhandmade #handmadeisbetter

I had a lot of fun designing these beer and bourbon flight boards before Christmas and am thrilled with how they turned out. I only had a limited number I could make at the time, so I brought all of them to @our_moments_in_time But now I have ordered some new acrylic colors and am excited to offer custom designs in lieu of the “first in flight,” available now on my website zooandroo.com ❤️ So order now for Valentine’s Day! #zooandroo #beerflight #bourbonflight #firstinflight #madeinnc

What’s your word for 2021? Mine is balance. Last

What’s your word for 2021? Mine is balance. Last year (otherwise know as the-year-that-shall-not-be-named), I was overwhelmed and therefore struggled in many areas of my life. I had so much to do, but not knowing where to start I had no energy to do them. This year, I aim to pay more attention to every aspect of my life, including self care. Gotta put your mask on first before you can help others! I will create to do lists so that I may focus my energy on the things that need to be done so that I allow myself time for other things that make me happy, hopefully finding a good balance of it all. And with my word for 2021, I made this macrame wall art to remind me every day to maintain a healthy balance. If you want to make something with your word (or a name), I now have these personalized macrame hoops available on my website under DIY kits! Please tag me with your creations! #zooandroo #wordoftheyear #balance

Tasting memories of Bora Bora with this delicious passion fruit - thank you @wegmans for carrying this hard to find fruit! Now I just need to recreate Thomas’ amazing drink from @stregisborabora ❤️ My kids agree with me - tastes like a healthy Sour Patch Kid! Yum!!! #passionfruit

I had some really fun custom requests this Christmas, and this was one of my favorites! I’ll be adding it to my permanent collection for anyone who loves music and records. The text can be customized to anything. #zooandroo #recordornament #musiclover #recordcollector #glowforge #ourfirstchristmas #engravedwood #handmadeornaments #handmadechristmas

Oh yeah, forgot to tell y’all, I cut the tip of my finger off on Christmas while slicing potatoes on my mandolin. 🙄 So I’m now ending 2020 giving this year a really big middle finger! (Good thing my shop is on vacation this week) #fu2020 #middlefinger #mandolinsaredangerous #readyfor2021 #2020sucks
