Wallpaper - Pretty Bows I

Our Pretty Bows I wallpaper, created by Farida Zaman, features three distinct blue bows arranged in a neat vertical alignment across a soft, delicate pink background. Each bow brings its own character to the composition: the top bow displays crisp vertical stripes, the middle bow is rendered in solid cornflower blue, and the bottom bow is patterned with lighthearted polka dots. The design carries a soft, watercolour-inspired painted finish with gentle pastel tones that give the motif a charming, illustrative personality. Like all our wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure according to your wall dimensions on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface structure.

In the room

Because of the clean vertical arrangement of the three bows, we see this working particularly well on a feature wall or narrower wall sections where the upright rhythm can be appreciated without interruption. In a nursery, toddler room, or children's playroom, it creates a gentle focal point behind a cot, low shelving, or a quiet reading corner. The balance between soft pink and varying shades of blue also makes it a lovely choice for a dressing room, powder room, or teenage bedroom, where the motif adds a touch of classic Regency-inspired whimsy without feeling overly busy. If you are placing furniture against the wall, we recommend keeping lower-profile pieces in front so the distinct pattern of all three bows remains visible.

Styling it

The watercolour feel and pastel palette of our mural wallpapers pair naturally with light, painted furniture and simple, uncluttered decor.

• Choose white, ivory, or soft cream painted furniture to maintain an airy, delicate feel around the wall.
• Introduce understated textiles such as washed cottons or light linens in quiet neutrals to let the bow illustrations stand out as the main decorative element.
• Keep wall decor minimal on the wallpapered surface so the vertical flow of the stripes, solids, and polka dots remains clear.

Colour combinations

The palette of our wallpaper centres on soft, chalky pink alongside cornflower blue, mid-blue, and crisp white details within the bows. When choosing paint for adjoining walls, woodwork, or built-in cabinetry, we suggest continuing the gentle, balanced mood with warm off-whites, muted cream, or very pale powder pink. For a touch more contrast and depth elsewhere in the room, subtle slate blue or soft denim tones picked up from the bows create a cohesive, considered scheme.
