Wallpaper - Beautiful Bows, Turquoise

Designed by Carrie Cantwell, our Beautiful Bows wallpaper brings together a charming collection of illustrated ribbon bows against a soft cream background. Each bow has its own distinct character, ranging from wide satin-style knots with trailing tails to playful lace-trimmed and scalloped ties. Rendered in a lively spectrum of sky blue, turquoise, and deeper cornflower tones, the design balances bold graphic shapes with delicate stippled shading that gives each ribbon visual depth. Our made-to-measure wallpapers are printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, creating a fresh, cheerful accent across any interior wall.

In the room

We see this wallpaper working especially well in nurseries, toddler rooms, and children's bedrooms where its whimsical, rhythmic pattern adds character without overwhelming the space. Because the bows are scattered evenly with generous space around each motif, the repeat feels balanced whether wrapped around all four walls of a compact nursery or chosen for an accent wall behind a cot or bed.

In a dressing room or playroom, the lively blue tones bring an uplifting, creative energy to the walls. The pattern scale is versatile enough to handle interruptions from doorways, shelving, and low furniture, ensuring the playful rhythm stays intact across broken wall runs.

Styling it

To complement the lighthearted spirit of the design, we suggest keeping larger furniture pieces relatively simple in form. Painted white, warm off-white, or natural light birch timber pieces sit comfortably against the neutral backdrop and let the blue ribbons remain the primary focus.

For textiles and accents, you can echo the vintage charm of the motif with ruffled cushions, simple cotton drapery, or soft pastel bedding. Bringing in subtle brushed brass handles or light ceramic table lamps adds warmth and grounds the brighter turquoise tones without competing with the pattern.

Colour combinations

The pattern centres around a vibrant palette of sky blue, turquoise, soft azure, and deeper cornflower blues, all resting on a gentle cream ground.

When choosing paint colours for adjoining walls, woodwork, or skirtings, a warm ivory or soft buttermilk connects directly with the background tone. For a bolder, monochromatic look, pulling out one of the mid-tone turquoise or powder blue shades for built-in joinery or window trim creates a cohesive and tailored feel throughout the room.
