Photo theme #136

[billz]

This week's theme should be an easy one ... it's something we all have around the house and some of us may even have on the bottom of our shoes. The theme is something sticky.

Congratulations by the way to Val who anticipated this week's theme and used it in last week's entry as well.

The fine print:

Everyone is invited to participate.
Because the purpose of the weekly theme is to get us more familiar with our cameras and to sharpen our photographic skills, entries should be taken during the week of the theme.
Photoshopping is allowed.
To make this thread more manageable to view, please post only your entries in this thread. Post your comments in the accompanying 'comment' thread (http://www.elementsvillage.com/forums/showthread.php?t=37583).
Be creative and have fun!

Having spent time yesterday picking off tent caterpillars I know they are sticky :). And they seem to be everywhere this year :mad:

Ping again. Nothing adds to the decor of a room like double sided sticky tape to keep a cat from scratching furniture. On the floor is a squirt bottle of water called Corporal Punishment, which is used as negative conditioning agent.

Sorry for the flash, but it was dark and Ping moves too fast to freeze him otherwise.:o

What we in the UK call 'plasters' (or Elastoplasts), and those in the US call Band Aids:

I couldn't think of anything for last week's "roll" theme that hadn't already been done... but this week's "sticky" theme re-opens the opportunity for me!!

The first thing I thought of was "I need to make cinnamon (Sticky) rolls!" But that's a dangerous thing to do with only 2 of us here now. Instead, I used a leftover "Roll" and heated it. Then I will pour on some nice sticky honey and have it with a cup of coffee

Here are some stickers from fruit. (I think it's sad that we need stickers for fruit, but without them I would have had to find something else to photograph.)

I guess I have two sticky items here. The barbed wire would stick you if you touched it. And, if you were an insect, the spider web could mean big sticky trouble.

Sticky Buns! (and please hold the wise-cracks, okay?)

I'm afraid I broke my DH's favorite cup. And he apparently could not wait until I could sit down and fix the handle nicely. Here are his sticky choices...

I figured I couldn't just repost the tape picture...:D....

The frame is kind of gaudy, but it was fun to make!

Not only is honey sticky, if these bees got loose it could lead to a very "sticky" situation. Not the best pic, but it is sticky!!

This little girl was decorating a balloon at our town's annual picnic.

Because I would much rather play with Photoshop than clean house, this kind of sticky seems to grow and multiply on my bathroom counter.

Ga-zillions of these little seed "worms" are getting ready to fall from our Birch trees. They leave one sticky mess on the vehicles that is difficult to clean off. Getting them off my cat's paws is an even greater challenge.

Nearly got stuck this week and this doesn't really fit the theme since the fly paper isn't sticky any longer.http://www.pixentral.com/hosted/1GdrKJQ3LNWidNa78bice762U5vRz0_thumb.jpg (http://www.pixentral.com/show.php?picture=1GdrKJQ3LNWidNa78bice762U5vRz0)

Struggled this week... not sure what this stuff is, but it stinks and it dries somewhat tacky. Good thing I have it around the house.:rolleyes:
