I would like to use my blueprints on the top half of my powder room - how can I glue them to the wall - I will want to be able to remove them within a few years - I plan to put a clear glaze on top to protect them. Can I just use wallpaper paste?

Yes, you can just use wallpaper paste, and I think it's a really cool idea, but forget about taking them down in a few years. Perhaps you could have them copied at Kinko's, and then you'd have the copies for your records. The originals can be hung by rolling a thin layer of clear, pre-mixed adheasive (such as Roman's Pro 880 or Pro 838) on the wall and applying the prints to the adhesive, decoupage-style. Let it dry for a day or two, and then roll over it with a quick-dry clear coat.
