How to Display Your Posters, Easily Swap Them Around, & Not Damage Your Walls
How would you like to learn how to display your posters in a way that allows you to easily change them around, without having to buy expensive poster frames, and not damage your walls? Today I’m going to show you one idea using materials from the dollar store and items you may already have at home.

Besides a poster, the materials you’ll need for this project are:
Foam board. I buy mine from Dollar Tree. You’ll need one and half sheets per poster. Other places like Walmart sell it too, but it’s more expensive than a dollar per sheet.
4 Command poster strips
X-acto knife
Hooks for your wall. I like the clear Command hooks that hold .5 a pound.
Binder clips. I use ¼ inch capacity.
Shipping tape
Scissors
Pencil
Yardstick or tape measure
And a metal ruler is optional but it makes it easier for me to cut the foam board.

First you will want to start off by measuring your poster since they come in different sizes. If the foam board is smaller than your poster, use two pieces.

I’m going to cut my first piece of foam board 24 inches long along the side that is 30 inches long.
I need to cut a second piece it will be 24 inches by 16 inches.

I use the packaging tape to attach the two pieces of foam board together at the middle and side edges. At the edges, I wrap the piece around from the front of the board to the back. Then I put another piece of tape in the middle of the back of the board.

I cut each of the 4 command poster strips in half lengthwise. Then I trim the pull tab to make it a bit shorter for the pieces I’m going to apply in the corners. Apply one strip to each of the 4 corners having the pull tab facing outward. You want the wall side of the strip to be attached to the foam board.

Then apply a strip to the middle of the bottom section and the middle of the sides. For the top, you want to measure and find the central point and mark it with a pencil. Attach a binder clip to this central point and test it by holding it up with your hand to make sure the poster will be level. Then attach the last poster strip to either side of the binder clip on the top.

Center your poster on the foam board and starting from one corner, peel off the paper from the posterstrip to attach your poster to it. Continue working your way around the board securing the poster in a clockwise or counterclockwise pattern.

Find a place to attach the wall hook to your wall and hang your poster.
