5 New Ways To Use Our Writing Clipboard & Dot Grid Pad

Our newest release, The Workspace Collection, was created to provide a functional yet beautiful solution for everyday desktop organization and efficiency. Featuring new materials like powder coated aluminum and polished brass, these practical and versatile tools are sure to add a touch of style to any space (and increase your productivity in the process). Today we’re highlighting two of our best sellers from this new collection—the Writing Clipboard and perfectly-paired Dot Grid Pad—and sharing five creative new ways to put these tools to use in your workspace. Read on for more, and don’t forget to explore the entire collection for building your best workspace yet.

 

1. A New Home For Your To-Do List

Whether you’re wrapping your mind around a project at work, planning your next getaway, or simply tackling your daily to-do list, this classic clipboard and paper pad is the ideal blank canvas for mapping out what needs to get done. The Dot Grid Pad’s 8.5” × 11” size provides your most generous spot yet for everyday note-taking and the always important to-do list, while tear-off sheets create a fresh start each day. Plus, our sleek and minimal Writing Clipboard features a streamlined design and the highest-quality craftsmanship, displaying your list in style.

 

2. A DIY Desk Pad

We’ve created several desktop paper goods over the years that are designed to provide an at-a-glance reference and structure for your everyday. However, we know that some people want to completely customize their planning tools—here’s where the Writing Clipboard and Dot Grid Pad come in. Dot grid gives you the flexibility to section off areas for the days of the week, hourly schedules, notes, or even a DIY habit tracker. Bonus points for a desk pad that comes with you on the go via the Writing Clipboard—now that’s multitasking.

 

3. An Inspiring Display

Sleek lines, durable powder coated finish, and low-profile clip make our Writing Clipboard a suitable accent for any space. Prop up your clipboard and pad on a shelf or against a wall for an architectural accent that doubles as a functional tool when you need it. This is the easiest way to add inspiration and personality to your workspace—whether it be sketches or a motivational quote.

 

4. A Visual Index

Use your Clipboard and Dot Grid Pad like you would a sticky note to display notes-to-self or reminders that need to be accessed frequently. Yet again, the portable nature of this classic pairing means you’ll be able to take your visual index with you from home to work, to meetings, or wherever your day takes you.

 

5. Built-In Brainstorming

Experts know that movement not only increases focus and productivity but can also foster inspiration. Experiencing low energy while working on a mental task, or struggling with finding inspiration? Try taking a simple walk through your office with clipboard in hand—this combination of a change of scenery and physical movement might be just the reset you need for a breakthrough, and you’ll have your clipboard ready to jot down your ideas the moment inspiration strikes.

 

At Appointed, we know that the tools you surround yourself with have a direct impact on your daily productivity and inspiration. We can’t wait to see how you put The Workspace Collection to use in your own spaces—here’s to a better way to get things done.
