How to put up Sukkah posters

How do you get flat decorations to stay on tent-type walls? Scratching Head

Last year I tried all kinds of tape and none worked, so I hung them with string from the frame of the sukkah. But they kept twisting around and blowing. Also, these are all homemade posters by kids, etc. so they are not very stiff.

you can laminate them so they will be stiff, and added bonus you can use them again next year.

Safety pins.

Or velcro tabs.

we use safety pins, sometimes rope/string to tie it from above.

Good ideas! Safety pins sounds easy, How do you do the velcro?

the velcro is adhesive on one side so u paste it on and use it every year

I laminate all the posters/kids artwork. Then I bought a roll of velcro that is adhesive on both sides. I cut pieces to fit each poster (usually one piece on each top corner and one centered at the bottom). When I have hung everything, I take a picture of each wall, so that I remember where everything goes the next year. One side of the velcro stays on the succah walls "permanently".
