Smarty Sponsor: Spooneez
By Rachel H
So I know what you are asking, “What is Spooneez?” Spooneez is a mom’s answer to clean and organized baby utensils! Spooneez is a great gift item (as I have now purchased four!) and a must-have for any mom. The best part is that they are so easy – just place your spoons and/or other items in the pockets, fold the top over, roll up, Velcro or tie, and you’re done! No more yucky spoons stuck to the bottom of your diaper bag. No more having to lick baby food off your little one’s spoon before packing it up. Simple, practical, and stylish! Don’t stop reading if your kids are past the baby food stage! Spooneez is great for toothbrushes and toothpaste while traveling as well. I am guilty of using a new Zip-loc bag each time we go on vacation and throwing my children’s toothbrushes in there. I was so excited to purchase a Spooneez for each of my kids to use as a travel bag. I even let them choose their own fabrics online.
One of our loyal readers, Rae B, has purchased Spooneez and said the following, “Spooneez has made eating on the go with a little one much easier. After feeding my nine-month old, I just place the spoon into the Spooneez and go. The material is easy to clean and sanitary for the next trip out. They make great gifts with the stylish prints and fun themes. Well worth it."
Spooneez was born years ago after a Triad mom, Maythi, was tired of dealing with an issue most Moms face. Many late-night feedings led to late-night thinking. Late-night thinking led to Spooneez. After a few design flaws and some much-needed sewing help from her Mom, she finally had a concept that had "come to life." But, something was missing. The product was still in its raw state and needed more. She let it sit a couple of years before mentioning the idea to her friend Robin. Little did she know Robin would love it, believe in it as much as she did, and was on board instantly. Luckily for Maythi, Robin is also awesome with a sewing machine.
Robin & Maythi are stay-at-home moms and they both wanted to be able to help contribute to their single-income households, especially during this tough economy. It took MANY prototypes, lots of advice & suggestions, and a lot of love, but they developed a wonderful, practical product that will help many Moms keep things just a little tidier. We can all certainly agree that when it comes to messes, less is definitely more!
Maythi Calvert & Robin Speas, co-owners of Spooneez, each have two daughters, and Robin is expecting her third child this Fall. They are so grateful to their families and friends for their unending support throughout their journey. Spooneez is patent pending, meets all standard fabric safety requirements, and is proudly made in the USA (in Robin’s dining room to be exact!).
You can follow their blog at www.spooneez.blogspot.com and visit the website for online purchasing at www.rollupthemess.com. Also make sure you watch the video on their website that shows you how easy it is to use Spooneez.
We are so excited to share this awesome new product made by Mompreneurs right here in the Triad. Order some for yourself or for gifts online! You can click on the Spooneez logo on the left-hand side of the Triad Smarty Pants web site, as well, to place an order!

I am so glad that Spooneez is being featured for the public to learn the many uses of it. I have given them as gifts to a few young mothers and they are delighted to have the product.
I stumbled on to this website a few months ago, and Spooneez are so cute!! The fabric choices are fun and contemporary, awesome product idea ladieez!!
I am a mother of a child with food allergies. Besides being an awesome product, Spooneez helps me keep cross-contamination at bay by being so easy to keep clean and organize.
After sticking one too many dirty spoons in a ziploc bag or wrapping in a paper napkin only to find a sticky gross mess at home, I now own Spooneez. They roll up the mess perfectly, are stylish and fun.
This is a wonderful product and a very unique and fun gift for any mother with children of all ages.
I saw these on the news! So cute and a great idea. Best of luck with your new business!

Thank you TSP for highlighting us today! We are so excited to be Smarty Sponsors. And thank you to all who commented, who have purchased Spooneez, and everyone who has been so incredibly supportive!
Spoonez is a wonderful gift for "Moms and Grandmoms" on the go. You will never have a mess with a spoonez. They are perfect for eating out, for on the go snacks, and for making being on the go non messy. Just roll up and mess, wash the spoonez when you get home and get it it ready to go again. It is a must have for busy Moms and for us Grandmothers that LOVE tripping around with our little ones. The patterns are so modern and funky that it is hard to close from. We used two of our spoonezs today on our special granddaughter's luncheon and rolled our mess up. Now, we are ready to go again. Get modern with Spooneez. They are the hottest gift on the market.
Oh I love the idea of using it for travel, my kids are a teensy bit older and the toothbrush idea is awesome! Thanks for the tip! ^_^
These are adorable and very GREEN! Makes much more sense than wasting little baggies or napkins each time moms wrap up a dirty spoon. Good job, smarty moms!
I bought one of these for my friends' new baby a few weeks ago, and it's really cool. The fabric choices are great and stylish. It makes a perfect gift for a cool mom. And since I have known Robin and her family for a long long time I love being able to help support her business venture!
These are a great idea!
