Gooey red petals
cling to the wall—don’t you wish
those petals would fall?

    hehehe, that’s very creative to form the gum into flower. I love it. I think it would not fall it sticky it will hang on there if it’s dry, but looks like falling lol, just tell us when it fall.

    Hi, thanks for visiting My Ruby Tuesday: Red Buses. 😉 And to your ruby, ooh yeah if I have that petal of gum in my wall, I would like that be fell and put it then in a trash. On the other hand, it’s pretty cute made so it’s not that a biggie deal. 🙂

    Nicely done. I think I do wish they’d fall of the wall, but then again, it might be interesting to see how it weathered.
