Any ideas on how to mount some kind of design wall so that it can be taken down when the room serves another purpose?
Get one of the dollar store flannel back table cloths. Also buy a pkg or 2 or 3 of the binder clips - the black things that flip open and then spring shut that are used in offices for large piles of paper. Get pushpins too while there. For about $6 you can have a portable design wall. The small holes the pushpins make can be easily filled when you want to clean up the wall and repaint. The more pushpins you put in the wall, the better they will hold the weight of the tablecloth without it pulling out the pins and falling.
