Easel Stands - Economical, Functional and Beautiful

By Kylie Scott


Whatever you need, be it an easel stand for whiteboard presentations or a decorative model for showing off your finest antique china, there will be one that will suit your needs to a "tee." Some styles are purpose-built and very cheap in price, but not in quality. Others are handcrafted or meticulously machined to serve a multitude of purposes.

Take for example the highly functional easel stand for use in the school or as a presentation aid. The most basic designs hold a whiteboard in a steady, upright position, giving the person giving the presentation or class an ideal illustrative tool. The humble whiteboard, in spite of all the technological gadgets available for making presentations, is still among the best public speaking aids you can get.

A more elaborate floor easel may be flippable vertically or rotatable horizontally. This kind of easel stand is ideal when a presentation requires one to refer back to previous information or to use one side of the board to display a promotional poster and the other to aid him in his presentation.

Easel stands are also noteworthy for their extreme portability. In a classroom setting, a coaster model can be easily shifted from one part of the classroom to the other or tucked into a corner when it's not needed. A whiteboard stand like this need not be fully collapsible, since in remains in one general area, but would not be appropriate when greater transportability was needed. There are other styles available for this.

A lightweight, collapsible stand is the ultimate solution for the traveling sales executive. Compact and feather weight bi-fold or tripod easels take up very little space in a vehicle and can be set up in a matter of seconds. Some of the more elaborate styles feature telescoping or folding legs. Both light in weight and sturdy in construction, they can go wherever they are needed at a moment's notice.

Variety and functionality are not limited to floor easels, either. There are any number of tabletop designs to choose from that are equally useful. Many of these, such as the lectern stand, are designed for specific purposes. Others are general purpose stands. They might be used to hold a whiteboard or a flow chart diagram for a business presentation. These slip easily into a briefcase, so can be available for use anywhere on a moment's notice.

Just as useful, but even more stylishly designed are the hundreds of styles of decorative easel stands. Whether they are used in the traditional manner to display artworks or in more innovative ways, such as the tripod wine rack, there is a decorative easel for anything.

The combination of utilitarian construction with an attractive design makes the ideal easel stand. An easel like this is not hard to find and is remarkably inexpensive.
