Wallpaper - Sticking My Neck Out

Our Sticking My Neck Out wallpaper pairs friendly cartoon giraffes with soft palm trees and gentle pastel rainbows across a clean white background. Light brown tones define the giraffe markings and tree trunks, balanced by muted shades of pink, beige, and green in the arched rainbows and scattered polka dots. The open repeat gives each character space to stand out while keeping the overall rhythm light and uncluttered. Printed made to measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface texture, this design brings a playful, illustrative warmth to children's spaces.

In the room

We see this wallpaper working especially well in a nursery or toddler room, where the light background keeps the space bright while the animal motifs add immediate character. Because the pattern has generous negative space around each giraffe and palm tree, it sits comfortably across all four walls without overwhelming a smaller bedroom. If you prefer to focus the design on a single feature wall, placing it behind a cot, low bed, or toy storage area creates a cheerful backdrop that anchors the entire room.

Styling it

The soft pastel accents and warm brown details make this pattern simple to coordinate with everyday nursery furniture. We would pair the wallpaper with light natural wood pieces, such as birch or pale ash, to echo the warm tones in the giraffes without adding visual weight. Simple, neutral bedding in soft off-white or unbleached cotton keeps the atmosphere calm, while smaller accents picked from the pastel rainbows can tie the surrounding shelves and textiles together.

Colour combinations

The palette in our wallpaper centres on warm light brown, soft blush pink, muted green, and gentle beige against a crisp white ground. When painting adjoining walls or woodwork, we recommend staying within quiet, warm neutrals such as soft milk white or pale parchment to maintain an open, airy feeling. If you want to introduce a subtle accent colour elsewhere in the room, picking up the muted sage green or dusty pink from the rainbows on a painted bookcase or dresser creates a cohesive, thoughtful look.
