Green Wallpaper: Shades, Styles & How to Make It Yours
The Colour of the Natural World
There's a reason green feels so restful: it's the colour of the natural world, of gardens and woodland and the first green of spring. Bringing it indoors brings a little of that calm with it. Green is grounding, refreshing and endlessly versatile — it works as a soft, tonal neutral or a rich, dramatic statement, and it flatters almost every other colour under the sun. From the palest sage to the deepest forest, green is one of the easiest and most rewarding colours to live with.
At Claret & Key, green is never a compromise. Because every design is drawn in-house and printed to order in your chosen colour way, you choose the exact green you want — and any of our designs can be made in it. Your shade, your pattern, made especially for you in our Cheshire studio.
A shade for every mood
Green's range is remarkable. A soft sage or eucalyptus is calm, gentle and almost neutral. A fresh mint or light green feels bright and uplifting. A muted olive or khaki brings an earthy, grounded warmth. And a deep forest or emerald green is rich, dramatic and beautifully enveloping. Whether you want quiet and restful or bold and jewel-like, there's a green for it, and we'll print your design in precisely that tone.
The art of pairing green
Green plays beautifully with others. Green and blue is fresh and natural, like a garden by the sea. Green and pink is a modern classic, cheerful and full of life. Green with warm brass or gold feels luxurious, and green with crisp white feels clean and botanical. Against a green ground, a floral, leaf or bird design really comes alive.
Where green works
Green suits every room. In a living room, a deep forest green feels handsome and enveloping. In a bedroom, a soft sage is restful and calming. In a kitchen, fresh greenery feels clean and natural against pale cabinetry. And in a hallway or study, green lends a smart, grounded edge. Its natural, earthy quality makes it one of the most soothing colours to come home to.
Choosing your green
Because we print to order, the shade is entirely yours — and green reads very differently by daylight and lamplight, so it's worth choosing carefully. Every design comes in three finishes: Traditional (150gsm, super-matte), Heavy-Grade (300gsm) and Removable peel-and-stick (180gsm), all printed on FSC-approved, PVC- and VOC-free paper.
Order a sample and see your green in your own light, morning and evening, before you commit.
Green is the colour of the natural world, so it brings a restful, grounding calm indoors. It's remarkably versatile — soft sage works almost like a neutral, while deep forest green makes a rich, dramatic statement — and it flatters nearly every other colour, which is why it's so widely loved.
What shade of green should I choose?
It depends on the mood you want: sage and eucalyptus for calm, mint and light green for a fresh lift, olive and khaki for earthy warmth, or forest and emerald for rich drama. Because we print to order, you choose the exact tone.
What colours go with green wallpaper?
Green pairs beautifully with blue for a fresh, natural feel, with pink for a cheerful modern look, with warm brass and gold for luxury, and with crisp white for a clean, botanical scheme. It's one of the most companionable colours there is.
Can I get any design in a custom green?
Yes — that's the beauty of printing to order. You choose the exact green you want, and any of our designs can be made in it, so the colour is never a compromise, made especially for you.
Fabulous wallpaper and excellent customer service. This Bronte wallpaper has given my kitchen a new lease of life. Will definitely buy from here again.
This beautiful wallpaper is in my foyer and it sets off the tone of the whole house. In the neighboring dining room I’ve hung Thibaut Iggy wallpaper and the two rooms blend seamlessly.
Excellent!
First Class wallpaper, easy application, the print is exceptional, new it would be ideal for my coffee corner of my new kitchen , arrived well packaged and on time , would highly recommend
This paper was so easy to install! I have used all three types of paper and will never go back to anything but paste the wall. The patterns were correct and easy to Mark and to match and the colors were as true as my samples. This company has been great to deal with and will use them again in the future.
Love this wallpaper! Second time purchasing a Claret & Key wallpaper. The quality is outstanding! The paper is thick and goes on so easily, works great for those new to wallpapering or DIY. The colors are super bright and amazing. They are my go-to wallpaper company now!
I love the quality of this paper, it was easy to cut and correct where I had made mistakes. Its high end vintage style is timeless in my daughter’s bedroom. I love it and will use this brand again!! Thank you so much 🤍🤍
Looks beautiful in my dining room and in a cabinet that I brought in during the remodel. The service was great and came quickly. The paper was easy to install. The only thing I am noticing is that it is pulling up in places. It might be the textured wall that is causing the issues. A high quality paper and I would definitely order again.
Only started with one wall and I’ve decided to do my entire room. It is so stunning and cozy. It made my bedroom look like it’s from a different planet. I bought two more rolls for the room. I am so excited to get those when they arrive !
Love the wall paper. Easy to hang, and I love the fact that you can change the background colours, which for me makes it bespoke. I have recommended to a friend.
Absolutely gorgeous and high quality wallpaper. We got samples from multiple brands and I could tell just by the feel of this one how high quality it is.
The print is a total Florida vibe. It feels vintage, tropical, very old Florida. The 'summer' color way feels bright but isn't overwhelming. Truly love this wallpaper.
Ordered 2 rolls, managed in one roll. Quickest and easiest wallpaper I’ve put up. Hardly any wastage due to repeating pattern. Got a refund for the roll I didn’t use within a few days of returning also. When returning I emailed C&K for instructions and was given promptly and clearly. Would recommend and would buy again.
I've never worked with peel & stick wallpaper before. It was a little tricky to get use to, but I got the hang of it & the process went smoothly! It's sticking great, weeks later, no peeling anywhere! I absolutely love how this print transformed my dining room!
