Hi,
We're renting for the foreseeable future, and our landlords are awful. Since I can't paint the baby room walls, I wanted to make some fun things with craft foam and stick them up (you know, birds, bugs, etc.). However, if we mess up the white paint in any way, bye bye deposit. Any suggestions for something that won't ruin the paint?
Thank you, Sarah

Well there is sticky tack...its yellowish stuff....or what about those 3m hook sticky things? You can get the refills you use for the hooks and use them to stick the stuff up (the tape just stretchs and pulls off leaving no marks) Even masking tape or painters tape might work since the foam is light enough...just use enough tape?

Worse comes to worse if the walls are just white....you can always touch them up and they will be none the wiser!
