Iron Vines in midnight

Why I need these:

I just purchased my first apartment in Brooklyn, and it was an old cookie cutter apartment with no character, stamped out in the early 60's. To update it, I've renovated the kitchen (bright red lacquer slab doors!), torn down walls, and installed new floor (black forest hand scraped maple). With the bright red and the dark floors and soon to be installed aluminum baseboards, the place is looking bright, and mod - almost a little 60's pop art like. The walls are in need of serious help and what better way to complete the look than with some serious graphics! My little bathroom door is a bright red to match the kitchen cabinets. (It's all open, so visually you can see everything. I've painted the walls of the small hallway leading to the bathroom a clear blue. I was planning on stenciling the word LOVE onto my door in white. Then the birds would adorn the surrounding walls...creating the image of LOVEBIRDS. I've finally snagged the man of my dreams and he will be sharing this apartment with me, so I thought it fitting to have my wall reflect my good mood and our good fortune!

The iron vines is for the bedroom. The apartment is pretty boxy and square without any architectural flourishes or details. The curly iron vines would add a lot of interest.
