Attaching pictures to cabinets?

As I travel solo for 6 months, I like to have some pictures in my truck camper interior for company. I've tried both double sided tape and the sticky blue stuff. Neither has worked reliably. The picture corners like to curl out and come unstuck.

Any ideas for better sticking, but still be able to get the stuff off the cabinets later? I thought about clear plexiglas covering all pictures on one door, but that's more work than I want to do, right now.

Here's one current "picture door" as an example:



Thanks,

    DW figured it out how to attach pictures to the cabinets without em curling.
  • x2 on Fodeez (formerly RVFraimz).

    Look at RVFodeez. They are peel and stick re-useable frames in 2x3" up to 8.5x11" sizes. Also available at some online RV vendors like RVupgrades.com

    My current crop of pictures, have been on the cabinet doors approx 18 months (we full time)
    I printed them on self stick 3M photo paper, made for the purpose
    Two edges of the paper are adhesive, and keep the images flat
    So far, no problems, might be different in a high humidity environment

    It's called "post-it picture paper"
    Post it photo paper on eBay


    The things you can learn on this forum! Have to order some post-it photo paper.

    cut a piece of cardboard the same size as the photo. use a glue stick or even scotch tape to glue to photo to the cardboard. to mount the cardboard use the renewable 3M Command Strips.
  • Without placing them in a 'frame' they will continue to curl


    Unless.......

    You use duct tape. But that is not very attractive :B
