How to Style Bow Wallpaper
Bow wallpaper does not have to be reserved for a nursery. The simplicity of the ribbon motif means it can feel playful or more grown-up depending on the colours, furniture and materials around it.
For a soft, traditional scheme, pair the design with painted furniture, natural linens, warm wood and small touches of antique brass. Blush pink and soft blue create a gentle backdrop for bedrooms and nurseries, while terracotta introduces more warmth and works beautifully with earthy tones and natural materials. The brighter pink colourway can bring a livelier note to a child’s room without relying on novelty pattern.
Because the bows are delicately drawn rather than oversized or graphic, the pattern can be used across the whole room as well as on a single wall. Keeping surrounding fabrics and accessories relatively simple allows the hand-painted detail of the wallpaper to become part of a layered interior rather than dominating it.

Questions & Advice
Bow Wallpaper UK FAQs
Is bow wallpaper only suitable for children's bedrooms?
Not at all. Bow wallpaper works beautifully in nurseries and children’s rooms, but a delicately drawn ribbon motif can also bring softness and character to guest bedrooms, dressing rooms, bathrooms and other layered interiors. Choosing the colourway and surrounding furnishings will make a big difference to how playful or grown-up the finished room feels.
What colours is the Matilda Bow wallpaper available in?
The Matilda Bow design is available in four colourways: blush pink, soft blue, bright pink and warm terracotta. Each uses the same hand-painted ribbon motif, allowing you to choose a softer, brighter or warmer interpretation of the design to suit your room.
What colours and furniture work well with bow wallpaper?
Natural wood, painted furniture, linen and antique brass all complement the gentle heritage feel of bow wallpaper. Soft neutrals can keep the room calm, while picking up one of the wallpaper colours in cushions, bedding or smaller accessories can create a more layered and considered scheme.
Can I use bow wallpaper throughout a whole room?
Yes. The Matilda Bow pattern uses a relatively small, softly scattered motif, so it can work across all four walls without feeling overwhelming. Using it throughout the room creates a more immersive look, while a single wallpapered wall can introduce pattern more subtly.
Can I order a bow wallpaper sample first?
Yes. Samples are available for each Matilda Bow colourway so you can compare the colours and see the scale of the pattern in your own space before ordering full rolls. We recommend looking at the sample in both natural and artificial light, as the colour can appear different throughout the day.
More About the Collection
Hand-Drawn Bow Wallpaper with a Timeless Feel
The Matilda Bow design takes a familiar decorative motif and gives it the softer character of something created by hand. Each ribbon began as a watercolour painting, with the slight variation and movement of the brushwork retained as the design was developed into wallpaper.
Inspired by traditional ribbon motifs and heritage interiors, the pattern balances sweetness with structure. Rather than feeling tied to a particular trend or age, it is designed to sit comfortably within rooms that evolve over time. It can create a gentle backdrop for a baby’s nursery, add charm to a child’s bedroom or introduce an unexpected decorative detail to a bathroom or guest room.
The four colourways give the same design very different personalities, from calm blush and blue to brighter pink and earthy terracotta. Styled with natural materials, traditional furniture or simpler contemporary pieces, the bow motif brings pattern and personality while still allowing the rest of the room to breathe.
Every Willow & Woods bow wallpaper is designed in Britain and printed to order in the UK using FSC-certified paper and eco-friendly inks.
