Plant wallpaper offers an abundance of designs suitable for many styles. From tropical palm trees and wildflowers to desert cacti and desert cacti – there are botanical wallpaper designs perfect for every taste.
Victorian designer A.W. Pugin preferred designs with conventional ornament and reduced flowers and foliage to stylized forms. Modernism disapproved of embellishments; wallpaper became less fashionable over time.
Green
Green plants add life and vibrance to any room, but wallpapered green plant images make a particularly striking statement. Perfect for living rooms, dining rooms, bedrooms, and kitchens, as well as offices or other commercial spaces to promote relaxation, green plant wallpaper can come in various styles, including watercolor or digitally enhanced images for maximum impact.
Botanical wallpaper has become a trendy choice in homes and offices due to its ability to create a calming, organic ambiance. Botanical patterns can help relax both employees and customers.
Palm tree
Palm trees are iconic of tropical islands and often feature on flags and seals of countries where they originate. If you want to create an idyllic beach atmosphere or add exotic touches to your home, a palm tree wallpaper could be just what’s needed. Our collection features spindly palms with soft brown hues against creamy white backdrops, making these gorgeous decorations stunning additions for any room, whether the living room, bedroom, or other room!
The coconut palm (Cocos nucifera) is perhaps one of the most renowned tropical plants. These iconic trees, often seen as symbols of paradise, can reach 80 feet tall and produce between 50-100 coconuts annually – perfect for urban environments and diverse climate zones alike. Their leaves can even be used for weaving!
Windmill palms are another popular species, featuring clump-forming stems with narrow green leaves and a distinctive fan shape. This fast-growing species tolerates urban conditions well, making it perfect for courtyards and containers. Acai palms (Acacia sp) are another popular variety commonly grown indoors for their fruits and leaves; these trees thrive best in well-lit spaces with bright sunlight.
Other easy-to-cultivate palms include the Chamaedorea elegans parlor palm, with its compact trunk and thin fronds. It is one of the easiest palms to keep at average room temperatures in a pot or sunny window with moderate light exposure. It often serves as an ornamental plant.
Other popular palm species include the sago palm (Cycas revoluta) and Panama hat palm (Carludovica palmata). Though native to the US, both trees can be cultivated elsewhere, typically planted along streets and public spaces to enhance cityscapes.
Leaves and tendrils
Leaf tendrils are thread-like structures used by plants to climb. A portion or whole leaves can become modified into tendrils, such as with Pisum sativum (garden pea). Lathyrus odoratus (sweet pea) uses upper leaflets transformed into tendrils. Not only do tendrils assist weak stems with climbing, but they can also serve as a means to access sunlight or gain support; when their thin, spirally-coiled tendrils meet something suitable, they spirally coil around it and attach themselves – this process is known as thigmotropism.
Forest wallpaper featuring jungle, rainforest, or botanical themes brings the outdoors into your home. From lush palm leaves and towering jungle trees to ferns and bamboo, which recall ancient forests – creating a botanical print featuring leaves, flowers, blossoms, and berries creates a magical ambiance in any room.
With leaf-patterned wallpaper, it is easy to turn any room into an earth-inspired oasis. Leaves make an easy decorative motif that looks fantastic against any wall surface; their easy installation makes them great for small spaces, too! And their varied designs mean one will surely be perfect for your home!
Wooden furniture
Are you a fan of wallpaper and would like to try your hand at decorating wooden surfaces using this form of decorative medium? Wood is ideal for this application – its surface must be adequately prepared before sanding down, applying a quality wallpaper paste, and adhering the paper onto it.
Based on the type of furniture you’re working with, there are different kinds of wallpaper to consider when selecting. Pre-pasted options require just some warm water to activate them, while others require adding wallpaper paste yourself; both methods provide smooth surfaces to adhere to your chosen wallpaper.
Start at the bottom when applying wallpaper to furniture, and work your way up. Align the material with the bottom surface before using a brush or plastic squeegee to smooth it towards the edges using circular strokes – this will help push out any air bubbles while ensuring that all wallpaper areas adhere securely without wrinkles or creases.
When wallpapering wooden furniture, the key thing to remember is to treat both surfaces if possible. Wood will expand slightly when exposed to wallpaper paste but return down after drying, causing bends or warps if only one side is treated – treating both surfaces at once will ensure that your wallpaper will stay intact for as long as possible!
Before beginning wallpapering on wood surfaces, always prime them first. You would do priming before painting any exterior, and it is essential as it prepares it for various uses, such as wallpapering. Skipping this step could result in ineffective adhesion between the wallpaper and the surface, or it may lift or peel over time.
