Wallpaper - Circus Fun II Border

Our Circus Fun II Border wallpaper, designed by Courtney Prahl, captures a playful circus scene with an artistic, collage-inspired character. The motif features a cheerful slate blue elephant balancing on an ornate decorative ball, framed by vibrant bunting flags in red, blue, green, and yellow against a soft beige background detailed with white polka dots. The flat illustration style pairs textured paper visual effects with bold geometric accents, giving the border depth and a whimsical charm. Made to measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, it offers a distinct, creative focal point for children's spaces.

In the room

We designed this border wallpaper to bring focused personality to children's rooms, nurseries, and toddler spaces. Rather than covering an entire wall from floor to ceiling, a decorative border allows you to define a specific zone within the room. We see it working particularly well running horizontally at chair-rail height around a nursery, or placed just above painted panelling to add visual interest where little ones can easily engage with the friendly elephant motif. Because the repeat combines a quiet beige backdrop with lively primary and secondary colours, it introduces playful energy without dominating the whole room.

Styling it

To balance the illustrative quality of the artwork, we would keep surrounding elements relatively clean and warm. Simple painted wooden furniture in off-white or soft grey complements the gentle beige base of the border, while allowing the red and yellow bunting flags to stand out as accent colours. You can easily pick up the slate blue tones of the elephant in smaller textiles, such as a solid-toned cot blanket, linen window dressings, or a low-pile circular rug. Keeping adjacent wall paint calm ensures the collage-like character of the border remains the visual highlight of the space.

Colour combinations

The palette centres on a soothing beige background with subtle white dots and a cool slate blue elephant. Around this neutral base, pops of clear red, sunny yellow, vibrant green, and cobalt blue bring cheerful contrast. When selecting paint colours for the surrounding walls, soft ivory, warm stone, or muted chalky whites provide a balanced backdrop. If you prefer more colour, a dusty pale blue or soft sage green drawn directly from the bunting flags creates a cohesive, welcoming look throughout the room.
