Portable Desk Area (Zen Laptop Cover)
Defining you work area helps set your frame of mind: now is the time to get stuff done.
So, how do you define your work area when you are working at home on the kitchen table or at a cafe?
- With a laptop cover that folds out into a desk pad.
This laptop cover allows you to create an instant (CLEAN) work area. An area that you can guarantee that your mouse will work, free of any table stickiness and can be a nice surface to write on
There is a sew and a no sew option in these instructions.
BONUS:
When you are done working for the day, you can wrap up your laptop. The motion of wrapping up your work laptop helps you separate work from your home life even if you are working from home!
