    We're adding some pictures to our table numbers, so they will be held veritcally on the number holder.  I want to make sure to use a good adhesive where the picture will really stick to the cardstock, any suggestions?

    Try a scrapbooking store. I know that there's at least one kind of tape stuff that you use to attach pictures to cardstock and it holds rather well.

    I used this roller dot tape stuff. It was really really strong and didn't cause any warping of pictures. I got it at walmart.

    I agree with FutureMrsBLT - the glue dots!

    The 3M ATG 700 Gun is way more useful than glue dots, and it holds up way better. I was at a scrapbooking event where the lady used the ATG gun to hold a book to a wall! Haha..

    i love all the glues mentioned, but i have fount htem to add up $$ pretty fast.  I didnt care for the glue dots because they were slightly raised and you could see them through the picture a bit.  i liked the Heritex (sp?) thingy because you could pull the pictures back off when you were done so you didnt sacrifice any pictures.  i actually liked spray mount the best for even, non bumpy coverage and a good stick

    I tested a variety of glue sticks and a glue gun, but the best thing was spray adhesive from the office supply store.

    Spray adhesive. However, once it's placed, you can't move it.
