Default placing images in specific place sin documents

I am trying to put some small clip art in a document in specific
locations and so am sticking them in text boxes so I can move them
anywhere without messing up the text around them. Putting the image in a
text box is easy. I then make sure there is no margin so that I can
resize the text box so the images takes up all the space and I remove
the border line so it isn't visible.

The problem then is that I grab the text box to drag it around and I
instead end up dragging the image out. Selecting the text box will end
up selecting the image. I tried putting a small margin around the image
and putting it behind the text so the margin doesn't rub it out and then
I have trouble clicking back on the text box or the images as it just
relocates the cursor in the document.

Can someone give me some guidelines on how to do this basic task?

Thanks,
Ben
