Wallpaper - Vintage Christmas I

Created by Katrina Pete, our Vintage Christmas I wallpaper brings a gentle mid-century holiday feel to the wall with an illustrated fawn surrounded by snowy pine branches, bright red winter berries, and delicate white snowflakes. The composition balances painterly brushstrokes on the deer with light, illustrative foliage against a calming sage green backdrop. It offers a nostalgic, storybook charm that feels playful yet grounded. Like all our wallpapers, this design is custom made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical texture.

In the room

We see this wallpaper working beautifully in nurseries, children's bedrooms, and playrooms where its warm illustration style creates an inviting, storybook setting. Because the central motif is framed by a wreath-like arrangement of festive greenery and starry snowflakes, we would give it a prominent position on a main wall, such as behind a cot, toddler bed, or a low reading nook. In a family cabin or holiday lodge, it also serves as an engaging accent wall in a snug or shared games room. The balanced sage background keeps the pattern cohesive across wider surfaces without overwhelming the space.

Styling it

To complement the nostalgic cottage character of this design, we suggest pairing it with warm natural wood furniture, such as pine or honey-toned beech, which echoes the soft brown coat of the fawn. Simple, unpainted timber pieces and rounded furniture profiles help maintain a gentle, retro nursery atmosphere.

For soft furnishings, cosy knit blankets, cream wool throws, or unbleached cotton cushions work nicely against the painted feel of the wall murals. Keeping surrounding accessories uncluttered allows the characterful winter motif to remain the natural focal point of the space.

Colour combinations

The palette in our design centres on a soft sage green ground paired with chestnut brown, snow white, deep pine green, and vivid berry red accents.

When choosing surrounding paint colours for adjacent walls, skirting, or woodwork, we recommend soft off-whites, warm creams, or gentle stone greys that let the sage backdrop stand out. For a richer, more defined look, pulling out the deep forest green of the holly sprig or a muted cranberry red on a painted chest of drawers or picture frame creates a balanced, festive harmony throughout the room.
