Wallpaper - Winter Village Folk

This folk art design by Katrina Pete captures a serene winter landscape with a distinctive storybook character. A charming red cottage sits nestled amidst snow-dusted pine trees and distant rolling hills, while figures in winter dress walk along a snowy fence line. The watercolour-like appearance brings a gentle, nostalgic warmth to the scene, balancing soft washes of snowy white, forest green, and muted blues with the vibrant pop of the red cabin. Like all of our wallpapers, this design is made to measure to your wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

We love how this scenic wall mural creates an inviting, scenic focal point without overwhelming the space. In a child's bedroom, nursery, or playroom, it lends a gentle storytelling presence that feels both timeless and comforting. The wide, open sky and expansive snowdrifts in the composition give the impression of breathing room, making it well suited to an accent wall behind a low bed or cot where the upper scenery remains fully visible.

Beyond children's rooms, we see these mural wallpapers working wonderfully in an entryway, mudroom, or dining area in a country cottage or lakeside lodge. The scenic depth draws the eye inward, turning an uninterrupted wall into a quiet picturesque window. Because the lower half of the design features gentle snow fields, lower furniture pieces like benches, consoles, or low storage units can sit naturally in front without obscuring the key details of the cottage and evergreen trees.

Styling it

To complement the hand-painted folk character of the design, we suggest leaning into simple, rustic, or Scandinavian-inspired furnishings. Natural wooden pieces, such as untreated pine, warm oak, or painted shaker-style furniture in off-white or deep forest green, ground the scene beautifully.

When selecting decorative elements and soft furnishings, opt for cozy, understated textures that mirror the winter setting. Chunky wool knits, homespun linens, or simple woven baskets introduce warmth without competing with the pictorial detail on the wall. Keeping surrounding accessories uncluttered allows the storybook atmosphere of the mural to remain the clear hero of the room.

Colour combinations

The palette of our wallpaper is anchored by crisp snow white and mist-like pale blues, balanced by earthy pine greens and the vivid red of the cottage. To create a seamless transition around the room, we recommend pairing this design with soft, chalky whites or muted stone tones on adjacent walls and woodwork.

If you want to bring out the deeper accents in the artwork, consider using rich hunter green or a classic heritage red on surrounding trim, interior doors, or painted cabinetry. For a calmer, more Scandinavian aesthetic, soft grey-greens and warm neutral textiles will echo the subdued woodland tones while letting the red cottage remain a bright, welcoming focal point.
