Wallpaper - Friendly Foxes

Our Friendly Foxes wallpaper, designed by Carrie Cantwell, brings a charming woodland scene to life through playful illustrated characters and earthy tones. The repeating motif features pumpkin orange foxes in varied poses, sitting, standing, and curled up amongst spotted mushrooms, delicate leaves, and small flowers in shades of yellow, white, and soft orange. Set against a muted green backdrop, the flat graphical shapes create an engaging storybook feel across the wall. Printed made-to-measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface texture, this wallpaper is easy to hang and brings a cheerful, imaginative character to the home.

In the room

We see this design working especially well in nurseries, toddler bedrooms, and playrooms where its lively narrative details can spark curiosity. Because the pattern repeat is balanced with open green space between the woodland motifs, it works comfortably across all four walls of a compact child's bedroom without feeling overwhelming. In a larger playroom or family space, we like using it on an accent wall behind a low reading nook or toy storage, keeping the detailed figures at eye level for little ones. The nature-inspired palette also makes it a charming option for a powder room or ground-floor cloakroom, where a playful, graphic wall mural adds an unexpected touch of warmth.

Styling it

To complement the woodland theme without leaning overly themed, we suggest pairing this design with simple furniture in natural light woods or painted white finishes. Low shelving units and open storage keep the wall visible, allowing the foxes and botanical elements to remain the primary focus of the room.

For surrounding accessories, soft textiles in muted mustard, terracotta, or warm off-white help echo the tones of the illustration. Simple canvas storage bins, braided natural baskets, and understated lighting with warm globes keep the overall space feeling grounded, cheerful, and uncluttered.

Colour combinations

The palette of our wallpaper is anchored by an earthy green background, highlighted by vibrant pumpkin orange, ochre yellow, soft white, and warm mushroom brown.

When choosing paint for adjoining walls, woodwork, or built-in storage, we recommend picking up on the softer shades in the pattern. A warm, creamy off-white on the ceiling and skirting boards keeps the room bright, while a muted moss green or warm clay tone on neighbouring walls creates a cosy, cohesive envelope. For smaller accent pieces, warm ochre and terracotta draw out the friendly tones of the foxes.
