Wallpaper - Folk Garden Snake I

Our Folk Garden Snake I wallpaper, designed by Omar Escalante, pairs storytelling folk art with a warm, grounded palette. A deep blue serpent winds through a garden of stylised flowers, leafy botanical sprigs, and scattered yellow stars, with red blooms detailed across the snake’s own form. The earthy tan background gives the entire motif a hand-painted oil paint character with a gentle retro rhythm. Printed made to measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface texture, our wallpapers bring an imaginative focal point to children’s bedrooms and creative shared spaces.

In the room

We love seeing this design in spaces where imagination leads, such as a nursery, toddler room, or children's playroom. The winding movement of the serpent and the dispersed star pattern give the wallpaper plenty of visual life across a feature wall behind a cot, a low bed, or a low reading bench. Because the repeat combines larger curving shapes with fine botanical detail, the pattern holds its own on an expansive wall while remaining engaging when viewed up close at child height. In a playroom, placing the motif along an open wall with low storage keeps the main narrative elements in clear view.

Styling it

The rich, earthy warmth and 1970s revival feel of the artwork make it a natural match for eclectic and boho-leaning spaces:

• Pair the wallpaper with warm timber or painted furniture in mustard, terracotta, or muted navy to draw out the key shades within the motif.
• Introduce natural textiles such as washed cotton bedding, woven storage baskets, or a plain jute rug to complement the folk art texture without competing with the detailed botanical forms.
• Keep wall decor on adjacent walls relatively minimal, allowing the winding forms and botanical elements of the mural wallpapers to anchor the room's character.

Colour combinations

The design is built on an earthy tan backdrop, accented by rich blues, warm yellows, and vivid red floral details. For surrounding walls and woodwork, we suggest soft warm neutrals, sandy beige, or a muted golden ochre that echoes the background warmth. If you prefer deeper contrast on adjacent architectural trim or cabinetry, a deep maritime blue or a rich rust tone pulls directly from the snake and floral accents in the print.
