1. A decorative object assembly for attachment to a vertical surface, comprising:
a substantially planar decorative block defining an upper edge and a lower edge;
a flexible planar strip made of a thermoplastic polymer, and defining an upper edge parallel to the upper edge of the block, a lower edge parallel to the lower edge of the block, and a vertical direction between the upper and lower edges;
a first layer of adhesive extending vertically downward from the upper edge of the strip, for releasable attachment to the vertical surface;
an attachment mechanism for attachment to the decorative block, configured on a lower vertical section of the planar strip,
and a gap section of the strip vertically between the first layer of adhesive and the lower vertical section, on which no adhesive is adhered;
wherein either (1) the flexible planar strip is composed of polyethylene terephthalate or polypropylene, and a vertical length of the gap section is approximately between 10 and 25 times a thickness of the flexible planar strip, or (2) the flexible planar strip is composed of ethylene-vinyl acetate foam, and the vertical length of the gap section is approximately between 2 to 4 times the thickness of the flexible planar strip.
