Wallpaper - Tasty Tins VII

Our Tasty Tins VII wallpaper by Veronique Charron brings a playful pop-art character to the wall with an illustrated vintage sardine tin filled with three blue mackerels, set against a warm beige and orange checkered backdrop. Teal, aquamarine blue, vibrant yellow, and orange tones define the tin and fish details, framed by the quirky hand-lettered text "WE'VE ALWAYS BEEN SO CLOSE MACKEREL" and a classic rolled-back silver key. The composition combines graphic collage elements with painted drawing textures, creating an expressive focal point that works especially well on a kitchen accent wall. Our wallpapers are made-to-measure according to your supplied wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface structure.

In the room

We see this design working particularly well in a kitchen, dining space, or breakfast nook where its food-inspired motif and bold graphic rhythm feel right at home. Because the sardine tin illustration and text form a strong central statement, we recommend placing this wall mural on a main feature wall with minimal visual interruptions from tall cabinetry or high shelving. In a compact dining alcove, the checkered pattern adds cheerful structure, while in a larger open kitchen layout, the design effortlessly anchors an eating area.

Styling it

To balance the bold retro character and high contrast of this mural wallpaper, we suggest pairing it with clean, contemporary interior elements. Simple painted cabinetry in soft off-white or muted cream allows the bright teal and orange illustration to take center stage without visual competition. If you want to lean into an eclectic, bistro-inspired mood, combine the wallpaper with warm wooden dining chairs or open shelving in a natural finish to complement the warm beige tones of the checkered background.

Colour combinations

Our design centers on rich aquamarine blues and teals contrasted against warm orange, sunlit yellow, and a neutral beige grid. When choosing surrounding wall colors or cabinetry finishes, warm off-whites, buttermilk creams, or soft sand tones echo the background tiles nicely. For a more graphic look, picking up the deeper blue or burnt orange in smaller decorative accents creates a cohesive, intentional palette throughout the space.
