At this stage of self-quarantining, Zoom has likely become your conference room, neighborhood bar, and go-to brunch spot. That’s a lot of time in front of your computer with a random wall serving as your backdrop. It’s time to put an end to boring Zoom calls for good.

Whether you just need to switch up your surroundings, you didn't get a chance to fold that pile of laundry in the background, or you want to distract everyone from the hair you haven’t washed in I-don’t-know-how-many days—we’ve got you covered. These 6 virtual backgrounds will give your next video conference the fun touch you’ve been missing. Here’s how to spice up your next Zoom meeting:

1. Drag and drop one of our beauty-inspired virtual backgrounds to your desktop.

2. In your Zoom app, go to Zoom.us in the top left corner, and click preferences. 

4. Select Virtual Background from the left hand column.

5. Click the plus sign to choose the virtual background you want to use. 

6. No green screen, no problem! These work no matter your backdrop IRL.
