I think it's fabulous! I love the way the trim pops out, it makes the curves of the thing really stand out. And the pattern is great, it's one that I probably would have passed by and missed a huge opportunity; every room needs one piece of quirky or bizzare furniture in my opinion and you did a marvelous job with it.

I love the idea of a two tone finish, one colour with a slightly darker one over top of it to accent the designs. Whether you do the two tone turquoise, or the red and black, a grey with black over top...whatever your fancy, I think that would look marvelous! I would suggest replacing the railing with a wood one of somesort, with the support post behind the lions and maybe put a light just above them like amandad2 suggested. That way they would maybe look like they belonged to something. I think we can all agree that whatever you do, do NOT accent their facial features. That's just plain creepy.

I have an almost 3 year old nephew who is obsessed with zombies....we think he got it from his older brother who is 6 and claims that his step dad (which he doesn't have) is Dracula and his invisible sister is also a vampire and her name is Sebella. We watched the movie "Coraline" with the older one when he was 4, I was thoroughly creeped out by the intro and he was patting my leg saying "it's not creepy aunty, it's not creepy."
Point being, although I think the picture is creepy and weird, your children may not. Ask them and see what they say, and if they're too young for that...just wait until they are older, you don't want to be the parent that unknowingly scars your child for life. lol.
