For The Non – iPad Addicts

The Blackboard Tablet is a simple reminder that we can use non-digital ways to communicate with family members and even make our famous lists. It offers good-old-fashioned fun and comes with a white bistro marker, although many colors of markers are available in craft stores. A considerate niche allows you to hang it up on the wall and its the perfect size to bring with you.

The Blackboard Tablet is made of thin stained plywood and reclaimed black arcylic. The reverse side of the wood is laser-etched with a geometric pattern. The marker fits perfectly in the cut-out at the bottom of the tablet. The dimensions are: 10 3/4” x 8 1/4”.
