Table top easels can be good alternatives if you do not have the space in your home for full-sized standing easels, or if you do not like to work on a table. It is also more convenient for your child to paint on table top easels as compared to standing easels. With standing easels, you have to see to it that they are at your child's height. You also have to ensure that the paper is placed neither too high, nor too low. And you may even have to saw off the legs of the standing easels if necessary to make sure that they are within easy reach of your child.

Table top easels can be placed on desks and kitchen tables. You can simply fold and store them away after you are done with your painting. They can also be used as table top displays for your artwork, wedding albums, and family photographs.

You can purchase table top easels which are made from materials such as inexpensive plastic to a more expensive oak or rosewood. There are stylish designs of table top easels which are functional at the same time. You can also find table top easels that come with paper rolls, chalkboards, and whiteboards.

Homemade Table Top Easels

If you do not have the budget for table top easels, you can actually make your own out of a sturdy cardboard carton. You may cut the carton diagonally to make two-pyramid shaped table top easels. For holding paper, you may want to cut two slits at the top of the cardboard where you can insert clips or even clothespins. If you want more durable table top easels, you can use a couple of identical hardwood panels that you can hinge together. To make the easel stationary once you open it, add a short chain between the panels.
