Wallpaper - Pretty in Pastel

Our Pretty in Pastel wallpaper, created by Kristy Rice, brings together expressive watercolor blooms in a lively arrangement of pink, watermelon, soft orange, yellow, and green tones. Broad, fluid brushstrokes give the large flower petals an open, painterly rhythm that fills the wall with artistic energy while preserving a light, inviting feel. Like all Wallism mural wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure to fit your exact wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, making our wallpapers straightforward to hang in any room.

In the room

Because the floral composition has generous visual scale, we love giving this wall mural an open, central spot where the full arrangement can unfold naturally. In a bedroom, it works wonderfully behind a low headboard, creating an expressive backdrop that anchors the entire room without feeling dark or heavy. We also see this design working beautifully in a dressing room, powder room, or a bright home office where the painterly floral forms add character to everyday moments. If you choose to use it in a living room, placing it along a main feature wall behind a sofa lets the warm watercolor tones become the visual focal point of the space.

Styling it

To let the vivid floral artwork lead the room, we suggest keeping larger surrounding furniture relatively simple in shape and finish. Clean-lined upholstered seating in neutral woven fabrics provides a calm foundation that balances the fluid, painterly energy of the pattern. Warm wood tones, such as honey oak or natural ash, pair naturally with the sunny yellow and soft orange elements in the flowers, while subtle French country or romantic heritage accents like painted side tables add charm without visual clutter.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper features a base palette of watermelon pink, blush, sunny yellow, warm orange, and leafy greens against a pale background. When choosing colours for adjacent painted walls or cabinetry, soft off-whites, warm creams, or gentle biscuit tones will keep the room airy and cohesive. For a more grounded, defined look, you can pull the deeper watermelon and peach tones into smaller decorative accents, or introduce a soft sage green on surrounding woodwork to echo the painterly foliage.
