Jeannie Lit, a stay-at-home mom turned inventor, refused to give up after a failed business, and went on to develop this wonderful writing protector for left handers! If you are like me, suffered through pencil smudges with a lot of frustration, you might like to try this product out!

Blue SG with Pen

I think it is perfect for young left handed children learning to write. However, not only for writing, it works pretty well for Artists and people who use Tablet PCs. I can’t wait to try it out, but from what I can see this is a very clever idea and guess what? She is not even a designer! This is Design Entrepreneurship at its best, and I hope all of you can get inspired by her effort and get your stuff out there.

Here’s wishing Jeannie all the very best of luck!

    Why are you saying especially good for left handed people? The product seems to work for left and right!
