I would double stuff the latex balloons, or use a pearlized latex, depending on the color you are going for. Air inflated. Then use the foam covered wire to make the vine. I think you can find it in a balloon catalog. The wrinkled brown paper would do fine for the leaves, because it would have enough body. Push the foam back and cut the wire back far enough on the ends, so that it helps protect the balloons from any accidental contact.
 
ok contact Shindigz.com

They have the kit to make this so all you have to do is add helium,, dear and also be very careful of that hiflo stuff it is to hot, it will not be pretty site....
