Wallpaper - Scaredy Cat Orange

Our Scaredy Cat Orange wallpaper, created by Beth Grove, brings together a playful black cat motif with a bold, graphic composition. Centred inside a clean white circle, the wide-eyed cat with its pink nose and upright tail sits against a vibrant, textured-looking orange backdrop, topped with the friendly lettering "scaredy cat". The combination of strong contrast and illustrative charm gives the design an expressive, lighthearted character that works wonderfully on an accent wall. Like all our wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure to fit your wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

Because the central cat illustration and warm orange field make such a distinct visual statement, we see this wall mural working especially well on an accent wall in a kids' bedroom, playroom, or nursery. The circular framing and centred text give the motif clear focus, meaning it holds its own beautifully above a low toddler bed, a toy storage bench, or a small play table where furniture will not cut across the cat's face. In a toddler room or playroom, covering a single feature wall adds warmth and character while leaving the remaining walls lighter to keep the overall space feeling open and balanced.

Styling it

To let the illustrative charm of the mural wallpaper stand out, we suggest keeping surrounding furniture shapes simple and rounded. Light natural wood furniture pairs softly with the warm orange backdrop, grounding the room without competing with the bold graphic elements. A soft white or cream rug helps echo the circular frame in the illustration, tying the floor area to the wall. Adding small black accents, such as a simple bedside reading lamp or dark shelf brackets, creates a pleasing link to the cat illustration without overwhelming the space with heavy decor.

Colour combinations

Our wallpaper combines a rich, vibrant orange with crisp white, deep black, and subtle pink accents on the cat's nose. To complement this palette across adjacent painted walls and woodwork, warm off-whites, creamy linen tones, or soft oat shades keep the room bright and let the orange take center stage. For a slightly bolder direction in a playroom, muted olive greens or warm mustard accents create a lively, balanced contrast that naturally harmonises with the orange background.
