How can you stick up a dry erase board without having to use nails and/or thumbtacks?

I want to stick it on my dorm door and I can't put any holes in the wall...is there a special tape or something I can use that will hold it up?How can you stick up a dry erase board without having to use nails and/or thumbtacks?
3M company makes some double sided tape with tabs that stick out from behind the item that you are sticking to the wall. To remove these tape strips, you pull the tabs stretching the tape strips causing them to release. They come with instructions and they work very well if used and removed properly. If you were to use plain old 'double sided tape', you will destroy the wall trying to remove it. You'd be better off using the nails. Look for and buy the 3M tabbed tape strips, Follow the directions. They work great.How can you stick up a dry erase board without having to use nails and/or thumbtacks?
Get some thin strips of sheet metal. Bend it to fit over the top of the door. Bend a hook on the other end to hang your board on. Some craft stores sell these to hang arrangements on.
Yes, 3M makes great stuff for dorm walls that won't leave a mark and is not permanent.... Walmart will sell the same things as a home improvment store.





Good luck!
two sided tape will work perfect for that.you can get that at any hardware store incuding wal mart.
home depot has some double sided sticky tape that is made by 3M that should work.
