Are you looking for actual grape vines or some sort of design or pattern
that mimics vine?

My parents have a vineyard (which they're trying to sell, BTW) and there
is ALWAYS vine left over after pruning (spring) and after harvest (fall).

Want to buy REAL Cabernet Sauvignon, Sauvignon Blanc, Chenin Blanc, or
Merlot vine pieces? I can probably "harvest" 3-4' (possibly longer, no
promises) tendrils less than .5" diam in a month or two. They're "new
wood" so they're totally green. You're on your own as to how to dry them
and make them useful. 

Just figure out what you're willing to pay and I'll do my BEST to get you
as much as you want. Offhand guess, I could probably supply 50 lbs...but
I'm not very good at estimating these things.

And if anyone else reading is interested in an ESTABLISHED, producing
wine-grape vineyard, you can see a little bit more at:
