Wallpaper - Pink Gingerbread I

Illustrated by Farida Zaman, our Pink Gingerbread I wallpaper brings a playful storybook scene to life with a whimsical pastel palette. At the centre sits a charming gingerbread cottage with a soft pink facade, scalloped pink roof tiles, and vibrant red candy accents. Candy canes frame the arched doorway while peppermint swirls and sweet confections decorate the eaves, flanked by two festive green trees against a pale blue ground dotted with falling snowflakes. A candy-striped border frames the composition, giving the watercolour-inspired illustration a delightfully framed picture-book feel. Made-to-measure and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, it creates a cheerful, nostalgic focal point.

In the room

We designed this mural wallpaper to work especially well as a feature wall in children's bedrooms, nurseries, and playrooms. Because the design centres on a single detailed illustration with an ornamental striped border, it looks best on a relatively clear, uninterrupted wall where the full gingerbread scene remains visible. In a toddler's bedroom or nursery, positioning the mural behind a low cot or reading nook keeps the sweet details within easy eyeline without tall furniture breaking up the artwork. It also brings an unexpected, playful charm to a family kitchen or baking corner, where the confectionery motif feels right at home.

Styling it

To let the illustrative details and pastel tones take centre stage, we suggest keeping the surrounding room elements relatively simple:

• Choose painted furniture in creamy off-white or soft muted pink to mirror the gentle tones of the cottage facade.
• Introduce natural painted wood or light birch pieces with rounded, soft silhouettes that complement the gentle hand-painted look of the illustration.
• Keep surrounding bedding and soft furnishings in simple, solid pastel tones rather than competing patterns, allowing the central mural to hold visual focus.

Colour combinations

The design is built around a palette of soft rose pink, crisp candy red, minty evergreen, and a delicate sky-blue background. When painting adjacent walls or selecting trim, warm off-whites, pale powdery blues, or muted blush pinks create a cohesive, light-filled atmosphere. If you want to introduce a touch of contrast, deeper cherry red or muted forest green accents in cushions or decorative pieces will pick up on the festive candy details and evergreen boughs.
