Refurbish!
You can buy plain round mouse pads at IKEA for only € 0,50 a piece though I just used free promotional mouse pads I got 2 years ago.

Great as a gift and to use up your scrap fabric!

  • How to make a mousepad. Fabric Mouse Pad - Step 1
    Step 1

    Gather all materials.

  • How to make a mousepad. Fabric Mouse Pad - Step 2
    Step 2

    For this step you need a lot of room because you need to be able to work quick.

    Prepare your working space. Lay newspaper over your working space and have all things needed at hand.

    *note: work fast! Spray adhesive dries very quick.

    Apply your spray adhesive to the pad and if necessary smooth it out with a piece of card stock. Put the newspaper with bits of glue aside (I just folded it and threw it on the floor)

  • How to make a mousepad. Fabric Mouse Pad - Step 3
    Step 3

    Immediately lay your fabric flat with wrong side facing and press the pad onto it.

    Turn it upside down and smooth the fabric out with a ruler to prevent air pockets.

    Step 4

    Let dry for 5 minutes trim excess fabric and you're done!
