Wallpaper - Christmas

Our Christmas wallpaper brings together a classic festive scene illustrated with a warm watercolour feel by Kathleen Parr McKenna. The composition centres around a glowing fireplace trimmed with candles and garlands, a decorated pine tree filled with colourful baubles and gingerbread ornaments, and wrapped presents waiting on the floor. Beside a window where snow falls softly outside, a rocking chair with a fern green cushion sits alongside a teddy bear, a doll, and shelves lined with books and a blue vase. Produced made-to-measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, this design makes a rich, nostalgic backdrop for the holiday season.

In the room

Because this is a detailed narrative scene, we see it working particularly well on a primary wall in a living room, dining room, or cosy den where the entire composition has space to unfold. The rich palette and pictorial elements give the wall plenty of presence, making it ideal behind a dining table or opposite a main seating area rather than tucked behind tall, solid furniture. In a holiday cottage or cabin, it creates an immediate seasonal focal point that sets a welcoming, traditional mood across the whole space.

Styling it

To let the detailed illustration stand out, we would keep the surrounding furniture relatively classic and understated. Warm timber pieces, such as a traditional dining set or painted wooden furniture, pair naturally with the Victorian and Americana charm of the artwork. Soft woollen throws, neutral upholstery, and subtle holiday greenery around the room help echo the festive elements without competing with the detailed scene on the wall.

Colour combinations

The palette is built around warm amber and fireplace tones, balanced by rich fern greens in the tree foliage and chair cushion, with crisp white accents in the falling snow and window frames. In the rest of the space, we would draw out the deep greens through painted woodwork or decorative accents, or introduce warm neutral wall paints on adjacent surfaces to maintain a comfortable, cohesive backdrop.
