Wallpaper - You Should Have Told Me

Our You Should Have Told Me wallpaper by Jocelyn Elizabeth brings an expressive energy to the wall through bold, painterly brushwork and layered abstract forms. The composition weaves together vibrant pinks, blush tones, rich blues, and accents of red, purple, and crisp white, creating an oil paint look full of movement and rhythm. As with all our mural wallpapers, this design is made to measure to fit your exact wall dimensions, printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure that complements the painted appearance.

In the room

In an art studio, hobby space, or contemporary living room, this design works brilliantly as an energetic focal point. Because the brushstrokes and abstract shapes carry substantial visual weight, we find it works best on a relatively open feature wall where the dynamic flow of the artwork can be seen across the full width of the room. In larger, open-plan living areas, placing the wall mural behind a low sofa or along an uninterrupted wall helps anchor the seating zone without letting taller furniture fragment the larger sweeps of colour.

Styling it

To let the artwork remain the centrepiece of the room, we would keep the surrounding furniture relatively understated in form and tone. Low-profile seating in neutral fabrics, paired with painted furniture or clean-lined wood pieces, allows the vivid palette on the wall to stand out naturally. If you prefer an eclectic maximalist interior, you can echo the energy of the wallpaper by introducing smaller decorative accents, like cushions or ceramics, that pick up on the deep blue or red notes within the composition.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper centres around a lively base of blush pink and vivid pink, balanced by deep blue, red, white, and purple brushwork. For surrounding walls and woodwork, softer off-whites, warm neutral tones, or muted blush paint shades create a cohesive backdrop that lets the motif take precedence. If you want to create a bolder contrast across trim or cabinetry, drawing directly from the darker blues present in the design provides a grounded balance to the brighter pink and red areas.
