Wallpaper - Holiday Prepping III

In our Holiday Prepping III wallpaper, artist Mercedes Lopez Charro brings a joyful, fashion-forward moment to the wall. A figure in a cherry red dress and matching heeled sandals carries an oversized gift box adorned with crisp red and white stripes and a dramatic bow. Set against a clean white ground, the watercolor illustration balances bold, graphic shapes with soft, painterly nuances, giving the piece an energetic and whimsical spirit. Produced as made-to-measure mural wallpapers on PVC-free paper with a subtle paper structure, our design makes a striking focal point that is straightforward to hang and easy to love year-round.

In the room

We see this design working beautifully as an expressive accent wall in a dressing room or a vibrant guest room. Because the motif is centered around a single large-scale figurative illustration, it benefits from a wall with open breathing room where the character and oversized present can be appreciated in full. In a dressing room, placing the wallpaper opposite a wardrobe or alongside a vanity mirror allows the cherry red tones to bring warmth and playful personality to your daily routine. In a welcoming guest room, it instantly establishes a cheerful, creative mood that feels thoughtfully styled.

Styling it

The graphic presence and vivid cherry red palette of this wallpaper pair naturally with both eclectic and contemporary interior directions. We like contrasting the fluid watercolor technique with crisp, modern furniture silhouettes and clean architectural lines.

• Pair with painted furniture in off-white or soft cream to maintain the bright, airy feel of the white background while letting the red motif stand out.
• Incorporate simple black or dark metal hardware in lighting fixtures or mirrors to echo the graphic definition of the illustration.
• Layer in solid, textured fabrics such as woven cotton or boucle in neutral shades for upholstery or bedding, keeping the surrounding patterns minimal so the mural remains the visual center of attention.

Colour combinations

The palette of our wallpaper is defined by striking cherry red paired with clean, bright white. To build a cohesive room around this focal point, we recommend working with soft ivory or warm chalky whites on adjacent walls and trim. This softens the contrast while maintaining a fresh aesthetic. For accent pieces, muted blush or soft rose tones create a sophisticated tonal layer alongside the bold cherry red, while grounding neutral elements in light grey, black, or natural taupe prevent the vibrant red from overwhelming the space.
