Wallpaper - Home for the Holidays I

Our Home for the Holidays I wallpaper brings a classic, nostalgic Christmas scene directly onto the wall. Created by David Carter Brown, this painterly design centres on a glowing brick fireplace with logs burning inside the hearth. The mantelpiece is dressed with traditional evergreen garlands, red bows, red and gold striped candles, a central wreath with a red plaid ribbon, and colourful stockings hanging beneath. A bright potted red poinsettia rests on the wooden floor against soft green walls, giving the composition a warm, narrative quality with an oil-painted visual feel. Produced as a made-to-measure mural, our wallpaper is PVC-free and printed on paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

Because this design functions as a complete illustrated scene, we find it works best on an uninterrupted feature wall in a living room, dining room, or cosy holiday sitting area. Placing our wall murals behind a low sofa or along an open dining wall lets the central fireplace motif stay fully in view without being broken up by tall furniture. In a holiday home or cottage interior, the pictorial style creates an instant focal point, framing the room around a traditional fireside setting.

Styling it

The rich, illustrative nature of the design means surrounding furnishings can remain simple and classic to keep the room visually balanced.

• Pair with warm, natural wood furniture such as pine, rustic oak, or painted timber pieces that echo the cottage character of the hearth.
• Choose soft upholstery and throws in neutral creams, muted forest greens, or soft wool textures to complement the festive palette without competing with the detailed scene.
• Keep the floor relatively open in front of the wall to allow the painted flooring and poinsettia detail at the base of the mural to connect naturally with your actual room.

Colour combinations

The palette in our design relies on a traditional balance of warm brick reds, deep evergreen tones, rich gold accents, and a soft sage green background. When selecting colours for adjacent walls, trim, or larger textiles, we suggest pulling from the softer background tones, such as a gentle muted green, warm off-white, or soft stone. If you prefer a richer, more enclosed atmosphere, deeper tones pulled from the foliage, like forest green, work well on adjacent woodwork or curtains.
