For small prints (A4 or smaller) I use archival mounting corners. Though they are pretty cheap to buy ([link]), I make my own mounting corners from archival paper and rice paste.

For larger prints I use archival linen tape ([link]) to hinge mount. I prefer to buy plain (no adhesive) tape - using rice paste for the adhesive.

Thank you very much. Im looking to mount 8X10 prints and the photo corners sound like a great idea, also the tape sounds good too.
