I recently bought two very large posters from the movie "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" and would love to hang them up. I am concerned about tape ruining the back and do not want to use thumbtacks because I don't want the posters to have holes in them. I bought some Command poster strips, which are supposed to be removable from both the wall and poster without any residue. Does anyone know if these actually work when it comes to removing them from the poster? I do not want to use these to hang them only to damage them when I need to take them down.

Are there any products or special techniques you can use to remove acrylic paint from fabric? I got paint on my cotton T-shirt today and have been at it all night trying to peel it off with a knife. It's not working too well.
Anything is welcome. Thanks!

I live in a old home. When the countertops were installed, linoleum was put on. Like you would do laminate. As I am not ready to replace the countertops, what do you suggest to cover the linoleum. It really shows the age of my kitchen.
