Nursery Wallpaper: Calm, Timeless Designs - Made in Your Colour Way
A Gentle Start
There's real tenderness in decorating a nursery. It's a room made with love and anticipation, and the loveliest ones feel calm, soft and timeless — a gentle backdrop to those first quiet months rather than a busy, themed space. A soft meadow, a scatter of stars, gentle woodland animals or a delicate ditsy print: these are the designs that soothe a little one and grow with them, turning a nursery into a room the whole family loves to be in.
At Claret & Key, every design is drawn in-house and printed to order in your chosen colour way, so you can create a nursery that's serene and entirely your own, made especially for you in our Cheshire studio.
Designs for a nursery
Calm and characterful is the balance to aim for. A wildflower meadow or a soft floral feels gentle and nature-led. Woodland creatures and friendly animals bring quiet charm and things to discover. A starry sky is soothing for bedtime. And a delicate ditsy print or a fine stripe keeps things soft and timeless. Because these designs are gentle rather than garish, they carry a nursery beautifully into a toddler's room and beyond.
Gender-neutral, or a gentle palette
Because we print to order, the colour is entirely yours — which makes it wonderfully easy to keep a nursery gender-neutral if you'd like to. Soft sage greens, gentle blues, warm creams and neutrals, and the palest blush all create a calm, restful room. Whatever you choose, it's printed in your shade, so the nursery feels exactly as serene as you imagined.
Safe and sound
A nursery is a room your baby breathes in day and night, so materials matter more than anywhere. All our wallpaper is FSC-approved, PVC-free and VOC-free, free from the volatile compounds that can affect air quality — safe and sound for the littlest rooms. And with Traditional, Heavy-Grade and Removable peel-and-stick finishes, you can choose the classic, the hard-wearing or the easy-to-restyle option as your family grows.

I love how everything turned out and the price point was great. It was a bit challenging to piece together. Being from the USA, it was kind of a challenge to convert all the measurements to figure out how many rolls I needed and then where to cut the rolls to line up the images based on the design repetition. Luckily, I had plenty of wallpaper to work with on the roll.
Absolutely beautiful design and texture. Got the heavy duty wallpaper and put it up without any previous wallpaper experience and it went up very easily and beautifully. Definitely recommend.
Extremely helpful and supportive when I needed advice on measurements, with fast delivery too. The quality of the wallpaper is excellent, and I’m really pleased with the overall service. Highly recommended!
Gorgeous wallpaper, but the measuring option on the website left us short by 1 roll. Had to order another one but when it came the colour match was perfect. Thankfully I wasn’t paying for a decorator, otherwise would have been disappointed in having to pay for them to return. Otherwise great quality wallpaper and design compared to other similar products available.
First purchase from claret and key and truly impressed. Beautiful quality wallpaper. Pretty yet not too fussy. Easy to hang, cut and match. Would work in any room
Good tracking and delivery service too.
Definitely recommend and would reuse for future projects.
Everything went really good. Apart from the quality of the wallpaper which is fantastic, the staff were exemplary in their communications, friendliness and professionalism. They really did go the extra mile to help me.
A great experience all round.
Thank you.

Lovely pattern and paper quality.
However, I wish that I had paid more attention to the roll width measurement.
For some strange reason your paper is narrower than a standard roll. This caused me a great deal of problems when papering my lobby, a small area but that made it more difficult because I was left with a narrow space to fill on 3 walls with a very long drop.
Although I love the paper I probably wouldn't use it again just for this reason.
Why you would produce paper not of a standard width is for you to know and me to wonder but it has made my small project very difficult.
Used this paper to make a dark study cosier. Absolutely loved the colour - the background is a perfect match to our existing panelling painted in Farrow and Ball Old White. First time using paste the wall and it was a revelation so easy and much less mess. Quality of the paper is great but noted the rolls are slightly narrower than most wallpapers. Loved the pattern match which meant little waste what we had left we used to recover some old box files which was easy. I thoroughly recommend.
Great quality wallpaper! The print is beautiful, the wallpaper is thick, and fairly easy to install. Our small area took about an hour and a half because we had a lot of of awkward cuts.
Will definitely be using this brand again!
The paper was just hung and we are thrilled.
The quality of the paper, ease of working with it, (per the paper hangers), your customer service, all were exceptional. We will be ordering again. Thank 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.
