Flickr Find! Landing Strip with Clipboard Art

As everyone knows, we love landing strips here on Apartment Therapy and this one — composed of a $50 thrift table and standard office clipboards — was too cute to resist...

We love the eclectic touch of the plumbing hardware on this narrow entry table that Sandee found at Antiques at Mayfair in Amherst, NH, and how cozy it feels next to that exposed brick wall. But let's talk about those clipboards! What a great, cost-effective idea for hanging ever-changing art in a high-traffic place. Hooray for resourcefulness.

Please tell me more about the pictures! Your cats look like mine. I have three tabbies that look just like that and one siamese. I would love to do something like this and also include my dog. I love it!!

I would be tempted to just paint the switchplates so they blend into the wall....but could still be used when needed. Really cool clip board idea. This would also be great for kid art or Christmas cards. Nice job!
