The Play More Notepad is Finally Available for Sale
Meghan Young — April 8, 2011 — Lifestyle
Great ideas often come at the expense of a lot of crumbled paper and missed trash shots (a.k.a. litter), but with the Play More Notepad, that may all change. Instead of looking upon these dejected pieces of paper as reminders of writer's block or other forms of failed attempts, you can now view them as part of a fun game that fuels imagination and creativity.
Brought to you by the Neatoshop, the Play More Notepad essentially features one side that is lined for writing and another side that boasts a sport ball design such as a basketball or football. When crumbled, you can imagine scoring a winning shot rather than trashing another bad idea. In 2009, design firm Trapped in Suburbia created these Play More notepads and distributed them to clients; it's great to see them finally available for sale.
