Originally posted by frogoutofwater Thanks. Do you put any backing on them like foamboard to make them more substantial, or just use card stock? And how do you stick them to the wall?
I do not use any backing. They have held up quite well, the gallery I show in does 2 month rotations so the cards have to last that long and they do. I also have been showing in a local restaurant since September and the original cards there look still look good. If you want to use a thin foam backing I'm sure that would be better but so far I have not seen a need.
Attach to the wall in the gallery we use blue painters tape rolled into a cylinder. Always attach with the tape cylinder vertical on the wall not horizontal. If horizontal it will creep and eventually fall off. At the restaurant they use blue sticky putty:

Someone used yellow putty at the gallery and it stained the wall, no idea what brand it was. But the blue stuff has been great.
