Wallpaper - Sleeping Fox

Our Sleeping Fox wallpaper by Carrie Cantwell features a peaceful red fox curled up in tall green grass, surrounded by delicate meadow flowers in soft pink and yellow alongside leafy botanical stems. Set against an earthy warm beige backdrop, the hand-drawn illustration style and textured crayon details give the composition a gentle, storybook charm. Like all Wallism mural wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure to fit your wall dimensions, produced on PVC-free paper with a subtle paper structure, and is straightforward to hang.

In the room

We particularly like this design for children's spaces, including nurseries, toddler rooms, and playrooms, as well as a peaceful bedroom or a relaxed reading nook. Because the sleeping fox rests nestled among meadow botanicals near the base of the scene, the composition works wonderfully as a feature wall behind a cot, low bed, or toy storage bench, keeping the main illustrative character visible and grounding the room. In smaller spaces, the warm beige background prevents the pattern from feeling crowded, allowing the green blades of grass and soft floral accents to add gentle visual interest without overwhelming the space.

Styling it

To complement the vintage, storybook feel of the illustration, we would pair this wallpaper with simple, characterful interior elements:

• Choose painted furniture in muted off-whites, soft olive greens, or naturally warm wood tones like pine and honey oak that echo the woodland theme.
• Layer cosy, tactile bedding and cushions in washed cotton or wool, using pale rose, butter yellow, or earthy rust to pick up the colours in the meadow.
• Keep wall decorations minimal around the feature wall to let the detailed crayon textures and hand-drawn flora take centre stage.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper features a natural, grounded palette of rust orange, earthy beige, meadow greens, and soft petal tones of pink and yellow. When decorating the rest of the room, we suggest pulling the warm beige from the background onto adjacent walls or painted trim for a cohesive, wrapped feel. Subtle accents in muted forest green or warm terracotta also work nicely on shelving or soft furnishings, echoing the fox's rich coat and the surrounding meadow foliage.
