Wallpaper - Holiday Cheer Gnomes IV

Our Holiday Cheer Gnomes IV wallpaper by Jenaya Jackson brings a cheerful winter story to the wall, featuring an ice-skating gnome in green trousers and a red-and-white striped hat accompanied by a tiny skating red bird. Set against a backdrop of snow-dusted evergreen trees, pinecones, spotted red mushrooms, and holly sprigs, the composition is surrounded by soft blue snowflakes drifting across the scene. The hand-painted, watercolour-inspired character gives the festive elements a light and playful rhythm. Made to measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, this design brings seasonal character into family living areas and children's spaces.

In the room

We see this design working naturally in a playroom, nursery, or family living room where its narrative detail can be enjoyed up close. Because the illustration contains distinct storytelling moments, such as the little skating bird trailing behind the gnome, we recommend placing it on a wall where lower furniture will not entirely block the action across the lower half of the scene. In a child's bedroom or nursery, it works especially well as a focal feature wall behind a low bed frame, cot, or reading corner. The balance of open wintry sky and detailed forest floor means it can sit across a wider wall without feeling visually cluttered.

Styling it

To let the illustrative details stand out, we suggest keeping the surrounding room elements relatively simple and grounded in natural finishes:

• Pair the wallpaper with light or warm-toned painted furniture, such as soft off-white storage units or light pine pieces, which echo the cottage-inspired charm of the artwork.
• Introduce cosy, unpatterned textiles in chunky knit or plain weave to pick up on the winter theme without competing with the playful characters.
• Keep wall decorations minimal on adjacent walls so the focal mural remains the central point of interest in the space.

Colour combinations

Our design features a lively mix of cherry red, forest green, crisp snowy white, and ice blue. When decorating around this wallpaper, pulling the softer background colours onto adjacent walls, such as a pale winter white or a very light, desaturated blue grey, helps create a calm and cohesive surround. For trim, doors, and skirting boards, a clean off-white keeps the transition fresh. If you prefer a richer accent, deep forest green or muted berry tones in soft furnishings or painted storage provide a solid anchor that mirrors the forest floor.
