I am trying to create vines to add to my 25 foot plaster cast stone wall. Making them has proved to be extremely tedious and the results are inconsistent. I have found 1 source of ready made vines which look very good. They are made by MP scenery products in Vietnam. I like them enough that I might order from there, but I would like to locate a dealer in the states.
Does anyone have experience with this company's products or know of anyone in the US who carries them?

No, but thanks for the tip. When I make vines, I use thick green thread (upholstery) for the vine and oregeno or parsely flakes for the leaves, then paint with matt. As you say, tedious.
Let us know if you check out the site and its products.

Ordered and finally got my vine packs from MPS in Vietnam. Took 20 days. I think they ship by donkey and rowboat. Lost some time because they do not know about US zip codes and shipped to Martinsburg Weet Virginia. The look really good. I will start putting them up tomorrow, but I have one question. I need an adhesive which is tacky enough to hold the vines snugly. I have a really tacky spray adhesive which dries clear but is very glossy. Can anyone suggest a dull finish adhesive which will be quickly
tacky, but dry dull I will post how the vines work out later.
