Combi notice boards are version 2.0 of the humble pin board. They’re multi-tasking work horses suitable for use in the home, office, studio or workshop. They have a practical use as visual reminders and a place to hang due bills, tradesmen’s contact cards, takeaway menus and the like. But they can also be used creatively to display mini artworks, doodles & daily inspirations or as mood-boards.
All three of the ones we’re featuring boast a whiteboard for writing on (only in whiteboard marker I might add… permanent marker is a big no no!). They’re perfect for jotting down shopping lists, messages and to do lists. They each have another area for displaying more 3 dimensional items using pins or magnets.
Our favourite of the trio is the rainbow combi board. It’s bright orange (even the ‘white’ board half is) so that scores big points in our book. If orange isn’t your bag it’s also available in lime, pink, turquoise and yellow as well as six different sizes. Its other half is a soft, tactile felt onto which you can attach things using either pins or Velcro.
