DD has a poster project due that will have pictures of her on it from when she was a baby until now. So pictures need to be on this poster for no more than a week. I don't want her pictures to mess up from tape. (afraid of pictures getting ruined)
So what tape is safest to use for taping pictures on a poster (temporarily)
I am starting to sound redundant sorry and Thanks!

How about those corners that stick onto the paper, that way you don't put any tape on them?

The little corners are a good idea, or maybe use a bit of rolled up masking tape on the backs? Or blu tak?

i was just gonna say that, just make a circle of sellotape so its sort of double sided, or blue tack :)

In the scrapbooking section of Hobby Lobby, they have 2 sided tape for scrapbooking. That might work.

no no no no no!!!!! don't use anything on them that isn't acid free! certainly not masking tape :faint: I dont' like the photo corners as if you don't put them on absolutely correctly the photos can fall out.
Bambi can you not copy them and stick the copies up? if not a good quality tape runner would be best :thumbs:

BC the pictures I have of dd is not from a digital camera. I have no negatives that I can find to get copies. Here is a dumb question can I take the original picture and get it copied at the pharmacy with that picture photo maker machine.
Thanks for all your replies!!!!!

I am probably too late on this, but maybe not, and if I am, it might help someone else
Undu (at Wal-Mart it is in the craft section, most craft stores it is with the scrapbook suplies) it will take the tape off the back of the picture - it is photo safe (I used to take out 30-50 year olf pictures from magnetic albums) If you have never used this before, it is great to use.
Hope this helps someone :)
