Wallpaper - Death Becomes Her

Created by Yvette St. Amant, our Death Becomes Her wallpaper presents a captivating blend of gothic charm and soft romance. Set against a warm, tea-stained beige backdrop, three black coffins display individual figures: a poised white skeleton, a neatly wrapped mummy, and a flowing ghost silhouette with dark, hollow eyes. Soft pink floral blooms and teal-toned foliage spill over the edges of each coffin, creating an intriguing visual contrast between crisp macabre motifs and gentle botanical elements. Made-to-measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle paper structure, this design offers an artistic, expressive wall mural statement.

In the room

Because the composition centres on three distinct illustrated focal points, we would give this design a wide, uninterrupted wall where all three figures can sit alongside one another without interruption. In a bedroom, it works exceptionally well on the wall behind the headboard, serving as a dramatic focal point while keeping the surrounding space serene. It also brings an eclectic personality to a dressing room or a creative teenage room, where its mix of playful mystery and delicate florals can set the aesthetic tone for the entire space.

Styling it

To balance the strong black forms and romantic floral elements, we suggest pairing this wallpaper with relatively restrained furniture and materials:

• Choose dark painted furniture or blackened metal accents to echo the solid black coffins and ground the overall room layout.
• Introduce soft, dusky rose or blush textiles in bedding or upholstered seating to draw out the delicate painted flowers.
• Incorporate vintage or boho-inspired accessories with warm, natural finishes that complement the antiqued beige background.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is anchored by deep black and aged parchment beige, accented with chalky white, dusty pink roses, and muted teal-green leaves. When selecting surrounding wall paint or woodwork, soft oatmeal, warm parchment, or pale clay tones allow the illustrated coffins to stand out naturally. For a more enveloping, moody atmosphere, rich charcoal or deep muted rose can be used on adjacent walls and woodwork to heighten the gothic romanticism of the motif.
