No-tech/Light-tech treasures: Document holders

Page up and Page pal are both document holders that free your hands to do other things--and free desk space for other things, too! Great organizational and reading tool...reduces frustration when things fall all over the floor, reduces stiff neck while working on the computer from a document, increases focus on a page of directions when surrounded by project materials. What more could you want from a junky little piece of plastic? Ahh, a lower price! How about, "almost free"?
Page Pal
Well, make your own! Head to the craft store for polymer clay that has the ability to harden to permanence in a kitchen oven at 260 degrees in 20 minutes. Make a flat-bottomed, 2" dome of clay. With a piece of plastic-such as the cover of an old notebook, cut a "mouth" part of the way into the dome to hold the paper upright. Be sure to curve the plastic slightly from right to left while making the cut; this curve makes the paper stand up tall. Good luck-send us a picture!
