Let’s be real, Zoom is the only thing keeping us together rn. It’s changed how we conduct meetings while WFH and—most important—how we get our drink on with people who are not houseplants. Now, my friends and I can watch each other sip adult beverages alone in our homes on video!!! What a time!
Not to brag, but I’ve gotten pretty, pretty good at Zooming (yes to Zoom as a verb). Still, before every Zoom, I find myself scrambling for a suitable background that (a) doesn’t show the pileup of laundry in my room and (b) doesn’t reveal that I’m actually in bed. But because technology, Zoom backgrounds exist. If you know, you know. If you don’t, it’s like a virtual green screen for your face when you video-chat.
Thing is, we need more options for all the video-chatting happening in our lives rn. Sooooo we made some really freaking cute Zoom backgrounds for you. That’s right, you’re about to be the cool one talking to your computer.
Not to make you feel like a grandma (no offense to tech-savvy grandmas), but here’s how to add these: First, download all our works of art below. Then, in the bottom left corner of your Zoom window (while you’re Zooming), you’ll see an icon that says “Stop video.” Click the little arrow right next to it, and select “Choose a virtual background.” Then upload one or all of these! Ta-da!
Behold! The Best Zoom Backgrounds Ever (because we made them).
