Wallpaper - Retro Spring Butterfly

Designed by Carrie Cantwell, our Retro Spring Butterfly wallpaper brings a joyful, graphic energy to the wall. Set against a soft aquamarine blue backdrop dotted with crisp white clouds, a smiling cartoon butterfly takes flight with bright blue wings, orange details, and green accents. Below, a trio of vibrant orange tulips rises from green ground, while a whimsical dashed flight path charts the butterfly's playful movement across the scene. Like all of our wallpapers, this design is made to measure to fit your exact wall dimensions and is printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle paper structure.

In the room

We see this wallpaper working especially well in nurseries, toddler rooms, and dedicated playrooms. Because the composition features ground-level tulips and a large soaring character above, it performs beautifully as a feature wall behind a low bed, a cot, or a toy storage area where the vertical composition remains clearly visible. The open, airy sky background keeps the illustration light and friendly across a full wall without overwhelming smaller rooms.

Styling it

To complement the bold, flat illustrative style and vintage-inspired charm, we like keeping surrounding furniture simple and functional. Light wood furniture or painted white pieces allow the cheerful colors of the wall mural to stay in focus. You can introduce warm accents that echo the artwork, such as solid orange or grass green cushions and soft cotton bedding, keeping patterns quiet so the illustration remains the main feature.

Colour combinations

The illustration centers around an aquamarine blue ground paired with lively citrus orange, fresh grass green, and clean white. In the surrounding room, soft off-white or light sky-blue paint on adjacent walls creates a seamless, cohesive backdrop. For furniture and accents, cheerful poppy orange, warm sunny yellow, and muted sage green provide natural harmony with the butterfly and tulip motifs.
