The best easels for displaying your art

Easels are easy to use and offer the chance to display art pieces you don’t want permanently on a wall. You can find ones to hold huge, heavy art or miniature options for your tabletop. Whether you need a display easel for the tabletop or a floor display easel, we got the right choice for you on our list.

Easels come in all shapes and sizes. Don’t have floor space? Look for a tabletop option. Need something miniature? They have those too. The easels on our list are designed to offer something for a variety of spaces and still give you that unique way to display your favorite art. Let’s find the right one.

Tosnail 9-Inch Pine Tripod Easels

Best Small Easel

These simple nine-inch easels hold your small artwork with natural pine and metal fixtures. They fold out smoothly and sit on even legs, allowing you to customize as you want or leave them plain. You get six in the pack, and they're assembly free aside from the simple adjustor pin.

Quartet Instant-Stand Easel

Best Lightweight

Bigger art requires more space and this 64-inch easel is just the right choice. It features durable metal with a smooth fold and unfold action, allowing you to display larger pieces without struggling to move the easel itself. It supports up to ten pounds, and the clips move the holders to accommodate different art dimensions. It measures just 25 inches when folded up.

US Art Supply Adjustable Easel

Best Adjustable Choice

This adjustable tabletop easel gives you a quick display space. It uses premium aluminum for lightweight durability, and rubber feet protect the surface of your table. It supports up to ten pounds in weight and is suitable for 24 inches by 30 inches and under art. The easel collapses for transport (3.75" x 2.5" x 16" high) and measures 15 inches wide by 15 inches deep by 21" tall.

Use your easel to change out art quickly, prevent damage to walls, or safely display something heavy. They’re adjustable and offer a few different sizes to match your available space. Choose one of these options and know that your art is safe and in just the right spot. Large art or small pieces, you’ve got your display sorted and on track.

After the Halloween buzz, there's often a letdown. Kids may wake up on November 1 feeling a bit like Charlie Brown with a bag full of rocks or Linus after the Great Pumpkin is a no show again. You don't want to leapfrog over November and dive right into decking the halls though. Sure, taking the Halloween decorations down can be sad, but there is more to November than those hand turkeys everyone used to make in school.

There's quite a lot of excitement surrounding Thanksgiving. So, don't break out the gingerbread and holly just yet. Those pumpkins, scarecrows, gourds, and fall leaves still look amazing. Add to it with these fun Thanksgiving activities for kids that will give everyone something to gobble about and make the house look festive for Turkey Day.

9 fun things to do at a sleepover: A checklist for your kids
Try these fun and entertaining sleepover activities for kids of any age
Kids at a sleepover

The time has come. You have agreed to let your child invite their friends to your home for a sleepover. Now, you need to figure out how to keep a group of kids entertained for the night. There's no need to start having a panic attack. It can be easy if you break down the activities a bit. If you need help with how to keep the kids occupied, we have a list of things to do at a sleepover, no matter what age group, so everyone is tuckered out by bedtime.
Food-related activities

Make your own pizza
Who would say no to pizza? Making your own pizza at home is easier than it seems. This way, each child can create their own. You know they will eat the whole thing because kids who help cook are more likely to eat the food. You could use English muffins, flatbread, mini bagels, or whatever else as the base and let the children pick their toppings.
Put together themed charcuterie boards
From holiday to movie themes, let the kids pick out what kind of charcuterie board they want to create and gather the ingredients. Children are so creative, and everyone will love to see what the finished projects look like. You could turn it into a contest and have everyone vote on their favorites, but any activity where you get to eat at the end is a winner for everyone.
Make baked goods
Have you been meaning to make those cookies for weeks? Well, make it a fun activity for the kids to do at the sleepover. Children love to bake and be in the kitchen, and it boosts their self-esteem, but the best part is everyone gets to enjoy the baked goods. If you have any of those themed cookbooks, let the kids pick out a couple of things to bake from there.
