Bored in the office?

Tired of sticking post-it after post-it up your leg, due to mind numbing boredom as the boss (if you have one…) keeps talking, and talking, and talking, and talking, and talking.

Well put those post-its to good use. Make little pictures and stick them to your friends.

Over 50 examples of small sticky note art, crafts and pranks

13. Post-It Note Art Collage

Probably one of the most famous post-it pieces, this stunning stop-motion piece was created by art student Bang-Yao Liu. This has set a huge benchmark for other ‘stop-motion' artists.

Who doesn't love cows. They're so weird. Make other animals friends for the cow and have your own Orwellian dream across the walls. Put the post-it pigs in the boss's room to show him/her he/she's the best.

26. Abstract Wall

37. To Do

Large sticky note todo

What are post-its for? Reminders and To Do lists, so why not make a giant one across the office. Someone did actually write on this massive to do list: it said ‘Eat Paint'. This is not a clever way of getting out of a meeting.

44. Directed Perspective

Sticky note sculpture

This is where post-it clowning around turns into actual art. The positionings of the post-its force different perspectives on you. You believe you are seeing some kind of form, but there will always be something slightly out of order in the form. It's like re-arranging all the items on your desk into some kind of height order; one of them will be some annoying width.

45. Cyclical Perspective

Sticky note tube sculpture

Another Rebecca Murtaugh, this piece looks good enough to eat. Eating post-its is not a clever way to get out of a meeting.

46. Angry Post-Its

Sticky note anger

To advertise to others in the office that you're being picked on, because your the loser and can only communicate to others via post its. Or, put this in the boss's office and show just how crazy he makes you.

47. Boss office prank

Sticky note office

Another one for your boss – pass it off as an elaborate prank.
