Wallpaper - January Flowers

Our January Flowers wallpaper, created by Anne Tavoletti, brings delicate botanical forms together in an airy watercolour-inspired composition. Fine, wispy stems support layered petals and leaves painted in gentle shades of brown, olive green and warm yellow across a calm, light background. What we especially like about this design is the balance between fluid brushwork and open spacing, giving the floral motif a soft, painterly character without visual heaviness. Like all our wall murals, this design is made-to-measure to your exact wall dimensions on PVC-free paper with a subtle paper structure.

In the room

We see this wallpaper working beautifully in spaces where you want an artistic, restful atmosphere. In a bedroom, placing it behind the headboard creates an inviting backdrop that feels light and enveloping rather than overwhelming. The delicate scale of the floral repeat also makes it a lovely option for a guest room or a peaceful home office, where the organic forms add visual interest without competing with work surfaces.

Because the pattern has generous spacing around the watercolour stems, it handles both expansive feature walls and smaller, broken-up surfaces comfortably. In an entryway or hallway, where doors and staircases break up continuous wall spans, the flowing stems remain distinct and expressive. In a dining room or living room, running the mural wallpapers across a main wall adds gentle movement while keeping the surrounding room feeling open.

Styling it

The earthy palette and fluid brushstrokes pair naturally with relaxed, heritage-inspired and modern country interiors. We would lean into the warm, organic feel of the motif with unpretentious materials that echo its gentle rhythm.

• Choose furniture in warm, mid-toned woods or soft painted finishes like off-white or muted putty to sit quietly alongside the botanical artwork.
• Introduce textured upholstery and window dressings in washed linen or wool to balance the painted look with grounded physical texture.
• Keep decorative accents understated, using handmade stoneware and muted brass details that reflect the warm yellow and brown tones in the pattern.

Colour combinations

The design itself is built on a quiet palette of earthy browns, olive greens and soft yellows against a pale, warm background. These organic tones give you several harmonious directions when choosing colours for surrounding walls and woodwork.

For adjacent walls, a gentle chalky white or pale linen tone lets the wallpaper remain the focal point while keeping the room bright. If you prefer deeper contrast, pulling out the warm brown or deep olive green for skirting boards, doors or built-in joinery anchors the room and draws out the darker brushstrokes in the stems. Muted ochre and mustard accents also work well in smaller decorative pieces to highlight the golden elements within the flowers.
