Wallpaper - Pretty in Pastel

Our Pretty in Pastel wallpaper brings an expressive, watercolour-style floral arrangement to life with painterly brushstrokes and a vibrant palette. Designed by Kristy Rice, the motif features large blooming pink and watermelon-toned flowers layered among soft yellow, orange and fresh green foliage. The fluidity of the petals creates an inviting visual rhythm that feels hand-painted and full of artistic character. Made to measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface structure, this design offers an uplifting presence across a wide range of interior settings.

In the room

Because the floral forms are generous and open, we particularly like seeing this design on a main feature wall where the sweeping brushstrokes have space to unfold. In a bedroom, placing our wall murals behind a headboard creates an enveloping backdrop that sets an optimistic, colourful mood without feeling overly busy. It also works beautifully in a dressing room or a home office, where the bright floral composition introduces energy and warmth to compact or mid-sized layouts. For a living room, giving the wallpaper a wide, relatively uninterrupted wall allows the balance of soft pastel washes and deeper pink accents to be enjoyed from across the room.

Styling it

We recommend pairing this painterly floral design with furniture and accessories that echo its soft, romantic character without competing for attention:

• Combine the wallpaper with painted furniture in off-white, warm cream or muted blush to keep the overall look light and harmonious.
• Choose natural, tactile fabrics such as washed linen or light cotton for curtains and cushions to complement the fluid, watercolour-like aesthetic.
• Introduce delicate antique brass or soft gilded accents on lighting and mirrors, which subtly reflect the warm yellow and orange undertones in the petals.
• Balance the expressive florals with simple architectural lines or subtle French country details that give the room a grounded, timeless feel.

Colour combinations

The pattern centres on vibrant watermelon and soft petal pinks, balanced by warm golden yellow, orange and leafy greens set against a pale ground. To create a cohesive look around our mural wallpapers, we suggest pulling the paler cream or soft ivory from the background onto adjacent painted walls and woodwork. If you prefer more contrast, a muted sage green or a soft terracotta picked from the secondary foliage can ground the space beautifully when used on lower panelling, cabinetry or larger upholstery pieces.
