Study Boards - What Are They??

Simply put...it's a board shaped to fit comfortably in your lap; used to hold books and laptop while studying. When Woodchuck Creations started making this product 50 years ago our customers cleverly coined "study boards" and the name stuck. Later on a tailored poly-filled bottom was added to improve comfort. A study board is also known as a lap board or lap desk. Our customers include young children, college students, and remote employees. It's common for groups like sororities to celebrate their sisterhood events, like Big Little reveals, with study boards. Today, our customers continue to use the study board they made over 30 years ago.

Handmade Quality

Each study board is hand made with quality materials and finishes.

Our signature shape provides a comfortable fit.
Each study board desktop is made from 1/2" Birch and CNC routed for consistency.
Sized just right at 24" X 19" X 4"
Weighing in at 8 pounds, our study board sits level and stable while on your lap or any flat surface.
Every study board desktop is finished with a 2-part epoxy resin for long lasting durability.
Each fabric bottom is tailor-made, filled with poly-fil and attached with upholstery nail trim.
A complimentary canvas tote bag is included with each order.

Personal Design

Our study boards are truly personal. Every customer takes part in the creative process. With each order a customer designs the digital artwork or photo collage used to decorate the desktop. Then picks out fabric and upholstery nail trim color complementing the study board design. We assemble every study board at our shop.

Complete Study Board - We'll convert a digital copy of artwork or photo collage into a high resolution print. Then adhere it to the desktop before assembling the study board.
Don't have time to shop for fabric? We offer several colors in dot and smooth minky fabric.
Each fabric bottom is filled with poly-fil and attached with upholstery nail trim. We offer brass, gold or silver.
