I know I have to pick 2 of the following:

Cheap
Easy
Best

but which way would you hang posters? I have some tubed posters that need mounting.

Blue tac won't hold them nice and flat but is cheap and easy.
Best cheap way would be to make my own frames.
Best easy way would be to buy some frames.

So BCF, how do you hang shit?

I used to buy poster hangers as a teen. I presume they still make them?

i use sellotape to re-enforce the corners and use drawing pins.
I know frames are about £8 in asda.
