Wallpaper - Christmas Stockings

Our Christmas Stockings wallpaper brings an illustrative holiday scene to life, centered around a warm red brick fireplace wrapped in green garland and red berries. Designed by Lindley Wiesner, the composition captures three colorful stockings hanging along the mantel in shades of blue, purple, and green, while Santa's red suit and black boots peek down into the hearth below. A decorated holiday tree with a yellow star, wrapped gift boxes, and the nostalgic script reading "the stockings were hung by the chimney with care" complete the playful storybook aesthetic. Made to measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, this design brings charming seasonal character to any feature wall.

In the room

Because this design acts as a complete visual story, we love seeing it on a central feature wall where the entire fireplace composition can be viewed without heavy interruption. In a family living room, it naturally creates a cheerful, nostalgic focal point across a main seating wall or near a gathering area. The illustrative detail and whimsical holiday characters also make it a wonderful fit for a dedicated playroom, where the playful narrative feels right at home.

For room proportions, our mural wallpapers work well when given enough horizontal width to let the fireplace, tree, and decorative script breathe. Placing the mural on a wall with lower furniture, such as a low bench, toy storage, or a simple sofa, ensures that Santa's boots in the hearth and the gifts beside the tree remain clearly visible.

Styling it

We recommend balancing the graphic and narrative charm of this design with classic, understated furnishings that lean into a relaxed cottage or traditional mood. Simple painted furniture or warm wood pieces help anchor the room without competing with the lively holiday scene.

• Choose furnishings with clean, unfussy profiles in warm natural woods or neutral painted finishes to keep the visual focus centered on the wall mural.
• Incorporate solid, textural soft furnishings in cream, deep forest green, or cranberry red to echo the classic holiday palette without adding clashing patterns.
• Keep wall-adjacent decor simple by placing low-profile seating or floor baskets nearby, allowing the full fireplace illustration to remain unobstructed.

Color combinations

The primary palette of this wallpaper is built on warm brick red, forest green, and crisp white, complemented by lively accents of cobalt blue, violet, and golden yellow in the stockings and holiday star.

When choosing paint colors for adjacent walls, trim, or nearby cabinetry, soft warm whites, muted cream, or light biscuit tones create a gentle, cohesive backdrop that lets the red brick tones stand out. If you prefer a richer, more enveloping feel, drawing out the deep evergreen from the garland for surrounding woodwork or baseboards creates a beautifully grounded traditional atmosphere.
