5 Creative Uses for Clipboards at Home

Anyone have good sources for clipboards that don't have logos on the metal clip? I once saw a collection of art displayed on about 12 vintage-looking mini-clipboards and have been thinking of replicating it... The Staples clipboards that looked right had an embossed/stamped "Staples" logo on the metal clip. Thanks!

Thanks for the tip, JRodway! I'll look into the Pogo Sketch... sounds pretty useful!

Thanks for the roundup of drawing apps! I'll have to try these...I wonder if you have to use a stylus or if you can draw with your fingers?

Personally, I use the Brushes app for iPhone sketching. It seems pretty intuitive to me. I do wish it had pressure-sensitive brushes, though (so the harder you press the bolder/wider the line.) Here's my tumblr:

I also think wall tiles could work... posted a comment earlier that didn't show up. The "stitch" and "seesaw" designs could be similar, but be sure to check the scale of the pattern:

Could you DIY it with Inhabit's sculptural wall tiles applied to a standard dresser?According to the website, they're a material that has a similar weight to plywood or particle board, so it might work...(not sure how the scale would look, though!) The Stitch and Seesaw patterned tiles have a similar horizontal layout:
