Wallpaper - Highland Cow Laundry Basket

Our Highland Cow Laundry Basket wallpaper brings together rich, earthy tones and a playful character created by artist Yvette St. Amant. The design centres on a shaggy brown Highland cow with wide, curved horns, carrying a woven basket with a soft green cloth resting neatly on its head. Soft, blended brushwork gives the motif a painted appearance full of visual depth, while the warm walnut and brown palette keeps the composition grounded. Produced made-to-measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, this design brings an unexpected and charming focal point to interior walls.

In the room

We see this wallpaper working especially well in areas of the home where you want to introduce a touch of humour without overwhelming the room. In a laundry room or utility space, the motif feels right at home, turning a purely functional room into an engaging part of the house. It also works brilliantly along a hallway or staircase wall, where the scale of the animal and its curved horns catch the eye as you move between spaces. Because the central figure carries clear visual weight, we recommend giving it an uninterrupted wall section so the painted character and woven basket detail can be appreciated in full.

Styling it

The warm brown and walnut tones naturally suit classic country, rustic, and farmhouse interiors, but the artwork also fits comfortably into a modern space that appreciates playful wall murals. We suggest pairing this wallpaper with simple painted cabinetry or understated wall paneling in muted off-whites or soft neutrals. To complement the earthy palette, incorporate natural woven elements such as wicker storage baskets, rattan details, or warm timber accents that echo the texture seen in the artwork's headpiece.

Colour combinations

The palette in our wallpaper revolves around earthy brown and rich walnut tones, offset by the subtle light green accent in the cloth. When choosing surrounding colours for adjacent walls, woodwork, or joinery, we suggest looking to muted cream, warm bone, or gentle putty shades to keep the atmosphere calm and cohesive. If you prefer a subtle contrast, picking up the soft sage green from the fabric inside the basket on nearby doors, shelves, or accessories creates a balanced connection throughout the space.
