Posters: Help, Please?
Aug. 21st, 2011 09:14 pmI've been wondering about posters that I want to take to college. I don't want to damage them, as I paid good money for some of them, but I want to take them with me because I want stuff on my dorm wall. Never mind that the posters I plan on taking are 1) one of Titania with quotes from the play 2) the album cover shot for Where the Wild Roses Grow, which is Kylie Minogue dead in the water with a phallic symbol ... I mean a snake 3) the 'You have Obtained the Vorpal Blade' from Alice: Madness Returns even though I've never played the video game and oh god my roommate is going to think I'm insane.
I was wondering specifically about that resuable adhesive putty stuff. Anyone had experience with it? I know it won't damage the walls, but will it damage my posters? With it stain them or refuse to come off and tear the edges? Should I stick small pieces of foam or something onto the back of my posters and stick the putty to THAT instead of the paper?
Or should I just get the postered laminated first? Should I get them framed and chance those "don't damage the walls, hoenst, but don't use them for mirrors or hang things over your bed we deny any liability" hooks I've seen in stores?
Gah, I need to get back to sorting through eight-years worth of clothing and five years worth of dust. *dives back in*
