Wallpaper - Skippers

Our Skippers wallpaper brings a cheerful flutter of movement to the wall, featuring an array of detailed butterflies drifting across a calm sky-blue background. Each butterfly is rendered with a delicate, watercolour-like touch, showcasing patterned wings in soft blush pink, warm amber, powdery lilac, rich indigo, and fine striped details. The repeat is evenly balanced and lively without feeling overcrowded, creating an open, uplifting visual rhythm that works across both small and large wall surfaces. Like all of our wallpapers, this design is made to measure and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

In a nursery, child’s bedroom, or playroom, our wall murals create an imaginative and gentle setting that feels engaging from up close and airy from a distance. The rhythmic scatter of butterflies also makes this design a charming choice for a dressing room, powder room, or guest bedroom where you want to introduce colour and playfulness without overwhelming the space. In a larger living room or teenage bedroom, we would place this pattern on a main feature wall behind a bed or sofa, letting the sky-blue ground establish a light, refreshing backdrop for everyday living.

Styling it

Because the pattern carries a diverse mix of colours, we suggest keeping the surrounding furniture simple and grounded. Light-toned woods like birch, ash, or pale oak sit very naturally alongside the soft blue background, while painted furniture in off-white or soft cream lets the fine details of the butterfly wings stand out.

To maintain visual balance across the room, pair the wallpaper with quiet, unpatterned textiles such as washed linen bedding or cotton drapery in neutral tones. If you want to introduce subtle decorative accents, pick up on the darker indigo or chocolate brown wing markings with simple picture frames or understated ceramic table lamps.

Colour combinations

The design is built on a clear sky-blue base, complemented by a broad spectrum of wing colours including peach, petal pink, terracotta, warm ochre, soft teal, and deep navy.

When choosing paint colours for adjoining walls, woodwork, or built-in cabinetry, an off-white with a slightly warm undertone creates a clean, classic transition. For a softer, enveloping feel throughout the entire room, you could pull out the gentle sky blue of the background or a dusty blush from the wing details. If you prefer a richer contrast, deeper slate blue or muted navy on skirting boards and doors frames the mural wallpapers with crisp definition.
