What is on your mousepad?

Does your mousepad say something about your likes and dislikes? Is it a picture of your adorable child, or a picture of your favorite cartoon character? Or, is it simply a freebie that you obtained?! Tell us the significance of your mousepad!

Mine doesn't express anything other than that it was the only one at the store that I remotely liked. It's blue with clouds. I do like blue so that's fine but it's still out of place for the other colors in my living room where my computer is. My "theme" for this room was mostly silver/gray, black and pink.

You can easily cut a piece of fabric that you like and that matches your room...and cut a piece of 'wonder under' and iron the fabric onto your mousepad! They sell the 'wonder under' at most places where fabric is sold! It is a fuseable web. Excellent for putting fabric cutouts onto clothes and many other uses!

That is a great idea! Thanks! As often as I do craft projects I can't believe I hadn't thought of that.

Too cool crazynurse!! I never would have even thought about using wonder under to cover my mouse pad. Lol, I'm heading off for my sewing box and putting some of my left over horseshoe print on it. Thanks a bunch!!

My mouse pad has a picture of a Siberian Tiger on it. My youngest son helped me pick it out when we were at Wal-Mart one day. Tigers happen to be one of my favorite wild animals so I loved it that my son picked out this particular mouse pad. :)

I don't have one. I have an optical mouse which I can just use on my desk...the desk itself is a faux wood veneer, delicately finished with a mild varnish and purchased at an Office Depot in Calgary....it hold many precious memories as well as coffee, pop and god know what other stains.

Yeah, hubby painted an old desk for me so that it would better match our den furniture. To protect the paint, he added a glass top to the desk. Now my wireless, optical mouse requires a mousepad again. The glass rendered it ineffective.

LOL, I don't even have a mousepad. Or rather, I have some freebie mousepads lying around but I don't use them. Not since many years ago. I find that mousepads are simply unnecessary for me since I roll the mouse well enough on my desk top. :P

I received a wireless optical mouse as a birthday gift and it works well without a mousepad too. However, I recently added glass to the top of my desk...and now it requires a mousepad again! Grrr.

Oh no, not glass. Careful about spills, very troublesome to clean up.:P

I actually have a flat ballless mouse so I don't need a mousepad. Before I got this mouse, I did have one with adorable kitties on it. I miss that mousepad. I have no clue where it went. I think the next time I need one, I will get my two nieces put on one and use that.

Mine is just the simple plain blue color. No picture on it. I think I got it for free, I forget where though. But it's so comfortable than other mousepad i had.

My mouse pad is a plain Black circle, pretty Boring I needed a New one so bought that really cheap. The Old one had a pic of a car on it but it got rather trashed...

Mine is a burgandy plain old mouse pad. It's just there to keep my mouse sliding smoothly, but that's about it.

Mine is simply black, with a wrist gel pad, and the company name Kensington on it. :(

Mine has the Indianapolis Colts horseshoe logo. I bought it after they won the AFC championship in January. :)

I just have a plain old mousepad. Mine's grey with the gel-filled pad that your wrist lays on. It's good for carpal tunnel, which I was bothered with when I bought it. My other computer has a mousepad with a picture of a goofy little kitty on it, scraggly haired & cross-eyed. I got it for a present from my 4 year old grandson at Christmas.

Mine has a simple freebie that I got from Serendipity Bazaar, a store online. I don't really care much what is on my mouse pad as long as I have one.
