Wallpaper - Merry Meows V

Our Merry Meows V wallpaper, designed by Laura Marshall, brings a playful festive motif to life in a soft watercolour style. The composition gathers illustrated brown and grey cats wrapped up in winter scarves and Santa hats alongside classic Christmas details, including candy canes, twinkling fairy lights, wrapped gifts, pine cones, poinsettias and leafy sprigs in vases. Gentle seasonal lettering reading "cozy nights & twinkle lights" completes the scene. Set across a calm palette of sage green, festive red and warm beige, our made-to-measure, PVC-free wallpapers feature a subtle texture in the paper that gives illustrated motifs a beautifully tactile feel on the wall.

In the room

We see this design working especially well in a child's bedroom, toddler room, nursery or playroom where its cheerful storytelling character can really be enjoyed. Because the repeating pattern is made up of smaller, detailed illustrations, it sits comfortably on both full walls and smaller alcoves. In a family living room or guest bedroom, we would place this mural wallpaper on a main feature wall behind a low sofa or bed frame, allowing the playful details and seasonal motifs to remain easily visible across the room.

Styling it

To balance the detailed illustrative style, we would keep the surrounding furniture simple and grounded. Natural, pale woods such as birch, ash or light pine pair effortlessly with the soft Scandinavian feel of the artwork. Simple painted furniture in muted off-white or soft putty tones helps the wall mural stand out without creating visual clutter. For soft furnishings, smooth cotton bedding, simple woollen throws or unpatterned cushions in warm beige let the festive character of the wallpaper take centre stage.

Colour combinations

Our wallpaper is built around a gentle palette of sage green, warm festive reds, gentle beiges, and soft brown and grey tones. When styling around the design, we recommend echoing the muted sage green on surrounding woodwork, skirting boards or adjacent painted walls to create a cohesive, wrapping atmosphere. Warm stone, soft biscuit beige or chalky linen whites work well to maintain a calm backdrop, while small accents of berry red or spruce green can be pulled out through seasonal cushions or decorative pieces to tie the entire room together.
