It’s the best of both worlds: This unit looks like solid wood but is actually metal underneath. Strong magnets stick to the surface to make your messages pop. A complete miniature messaging center, the Schleeh Design Doodad ($110, 514-762-3720 for store locations) is available in maple, walnut, and cherry and fits on a desk or counter. The adhesive pad is made of Post-it notes that stay put, and a stainless-steel slider helps you neatly tear off only as much paper as you need.
