Wallpaper - Christmas

Our Christmas wallpaper brings a classic holiday narrative to life with the delicate, painterly character of watercolour artwork by Kathleen Parr McKenna. The composition centres around a glowing fireplace and a richly decorated Christmas tree adorned with colourful baubles and gingerbread ornaments. Outside the multi-paned window, gentle snow falls across a tranquil winter backdrop, while charming interior details like a rocking chair with a fern green cushion, wrapped presents, and book-filled shelves complete the scene. Made to measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, this design offers a warm, nostalgic focal point that is straightforward to hang in your home.

In the room

We see this pictorial design working exceptionally well as a feature wall in a living room, dining room, or cosy den. Because the illustration tells a complete story with balanced horizontal and vertical elements, it benefits from a wider, uninterrupted wall where the full painted scene can unfold naturally. In a dining space, positioning the wallpaper along the main wall creates an inviting backdrop for seasonal gatherings, while in a living room, placing it behind low seating ensures that the detailed storytelling elements like the fireplace hearth, wrapped gifts, and fireside chair remain fully in view.

Styling it

The traditional, Americana-inspired aesthetic of this wallpaper pairs naturally with classic and rustic interior touches. We recommend keeping surrounding furniture grounded and timeless, using warm, medium-toned woods that echo the crafted feel of the rocking chair and shelves within the illustration. Layer in simple textiles in unpatterned weaves or soft wool knits to balance the illustrative detail of the wall without competing with the lively holiday motif.

Colour combinations

The design is built on a welcoming base of warm fireplace tones, complemented by fern green in the fir branches and chair cushion, with subtle accents of festive red, gingerbread brown, and soft blue. To complement the wallpaper across neighbouring walls, we suggest pulling out warm, muted cream or soft biscuit tones to keep the room bright and comfortable. If you want to lean into the deeper botanical shades, a muted heritage green drawn from the pine foliage works beautifully on adjacent woodwork, panelling, or window trims.
