Wallpaper - Folk Butterfly V

Designed by Yvette St. Amant, our Folk Butterfly V wallpaper brings a gentle, decorative presence to the wall with its folk-art-inspired butterfly motif. The large symmetrical butterfly is painted in soft baby blue, decorated with delicate white florals, dots, and a subtle striped body. Framing the wings at each corner are bright yellow blossoms with soft green foliage, balanced against an open, creamy white background. The painterly character gives the artwork a warm, illustrative feel with clear outlines and gentle pastel tones. Like all of our wallpapers, it is custom made-to-measure and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

We love how this folk-inspired design creates an inviting, playful focal point without overwhelming the room. Because the main motif has a bold silhouette framed by corner florals, we think it works wonderfully as a feature wall behind a cot in a nursery, a toddler's bed, or a low desk in a child's playroom. It also brings a lovely charm to a dressing room or a relaxed bedroom corner. The generous cream background gives the room breathing room, making it easy to use in smaller spaces where a dense, full-bleed pattern might feel too heavy.

Styling it

To complement the gentle folk aesthetic, we suggest pairing this design with simple painted furniture in warm white, soft cream, or light grey. Light wood tones such as natural birch or ash echo the botanical warmth without competing with the illustration. Keep bedding and larger upholstery plain or subtly textured, allowing the butterfly artwork to take centre stage. If you want to introduce a touch of contrast, small yellow or cornflower blue decorative accents like cushions or ceramic lamps will tie the room together beautifully.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is built around a palette of baby blue, warm cream, soft leafy green, and cheerful sunshine yellow. For the surrounding walls or woodwork, a gentle off-white or light butter cream creates a soft, seamless transition. If you prefer more colour, a muted pastel sky blue or a soft sage green on adjacent walls will pick up the tones from the wings and leaves. For trims, a warm neutral white keeps the look light, fresh, and grounded.
