- Hard plaster wall? Real cheap? Here's what you do.
-
- Trim each picture borderless. Buy a roll of 1/2" double sided sticky
- tape. Cut the tape into 1" pieces and put one on each of the 4 corners
- of each photo. If it's a big photo, put extra pieces midside. Now just
- place the print where you want it and push on the corners. Problem
- solved at negligible expense.
