Wallpaper - Home for the Holidays I

Our Home for the Holidays I wallpaper brings a classic, nostalgic Christmas scene into the home, created by David Carter Brown. The painted composition centres on a glowing brick fireplace, draped in evergreen garlands with red bows, hanging stockings, and red and gold striped candles on the mantelpiece. A traditional wreath tied with a red plaid ribbon rests above, while a potted red poinsettia sits beside the hearth against soft green wall panelling and a warm wooden floor. Printed as a made-to-measure, PVC-free wall mural, this design adds an evocative festive focal point to a seasonal living space.

In the room

In a living room or holiday home, we see this scenic mural working best across a primary, uninterrupted wall where the full fireplace vignette can be appreciated without being broken up. Because the artwork represents an entire architectural feature, placing it behind a central seating arrangement or along a main focal wall gives it the presence of a real hearth. For rooms that lack a traditional chimney breast, our wallpaper creates an inviting seasonal centrepiece that anchors the entire space. We recommend keeping taller furniture away from the centre of the wall so the hearth, wreath, and detailed mantel decorations remain fully in view.

Styling it

To complement the nostalgic 19th-century cottage feel of the design, we suggest pairing it with classic interior elements that mirror its warm, traditional mood:

• Choose upholstery in rich, comforting fabrics such as velvet, wool, or deep green and burgundy textiles that echo the garland and bow details.
• Pair the wall with warm-toned wooden furniture, such as dark pine, rustic oak, or antique pieces, which ground the painted floorboards shown in the scene.
• Accent the room with traditional brass or antique gold lighting fixtures and candle holders to reflect the warm glow depicted in the fireplace.

Colour combinations

The palette of our wallpaper is rooted in traditional holiday tones, featuring deep festive red, evergreen, warm terracotta brick, and soft golden highlights against a muted green background. When painting adjoining walls or selecting large interior pieces, soft moss greens or warm off-whites offer a quiet, harmonious backdrop that allows the mural to take centre stage. For trim, skirting, and architraves, deeper forest greens or warm, heritage cream shades tie in naturally with the painted architectural panelling in the motif.
