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.
We are totally in love with our new wallpaper for our lounge. It arrived quickly and in excellent quality. We are already looking for our next design 🥰
Absolutely love this wallpaper, needed 4 rolls for the room but completely worth it. Absolutely stunning and excellent to use. Not a fan of wallpapering but this felt so easy because it’s thick so more manageable and blended smoothly
This window seat has never had much personality, and the blue cabinets have always needed an accent that ties them to the overall space. The Amelia pattern was perfect, and the removable wallpaper was very forgiving as I learned how best to line things up well. I’m very happy with the result!
I got the Esme with Background: Calm Breeze
Pattern: Lilypad for my bedroom and absolutely Love it! Very gorgeous! My contractor said the paper was really good quality and, when he put it up, it didn't curl at all. Will definitely order from Clare & Key again.
This was my first attempt at hanging wallpaper. Luckily, our walls were fairly square. I have no comparison, but I found this paper very user friendly. I would gladly shop with you again, and intend to hang more paper in future. Thank you!
The quality is amazing , the personalisation of your name on the rolls added to special feel of it all , the ability to change colours and make it your own , It is beyond perfect and would definitely order again
I have wallpapered for many clients and this by far was one of the easiest wallpapers I have installed. I put this wallpaper in my own dining room to add some color. It is a pretty smokey blue with white leaves. I'm so pleased with how it turned out. I prefer the type that you put the paste on the wall since it is easier to adjust and match the pattern.
This was my first time with putting up any wallpaper and the peel and stick was super easy for a beginner like me. Love that it feels like paper and not plastic like others I’ve seen.
Beautiful design and so glad we could customize the colors.
I would recommend your company to anyone and I will be ordering from you again for other rooms in the home.
Beautiful wallpaper and so easy to work with too as I did the wallpapering myself! Absolutely thrilled with the final look having gone from pale grey and white to the vibrant Ophelia!
