5 Popular Color Trends for Wall Murals & Wallpaper
Certain colour tones keep coming back in home decor — popular in styles like bohemian and Scandinavian, and versatile enough to fit almost any room. These five colours are a perfect way to inject some natural, on-trend tones into your home with a wall mural or removable wallpaper.
Quick answer
Five enduring home decor colours — dusty pink, leafy green, soft yellow, sage-grey, and calm blue — pair well with neutral furniture and natural materials, making them reliable choices for a wall mural or removable wallpaper accent wall.
1. Pacific Pink
Lift your mood and incorporate a bright colour into your living space with this dusty pink tone. A darker version compared to a candy pink, this colour plays well with aqua blues and dark greens. "It takes its name from its gentle coastal personality, with a shell-like hue evocative of glimmering Pacific beaches," says Grace Fussell from Shutterstock.

The colour is versatile in home decor themes when acting as a primary colour for your wall mural or removable wallpaper. Use it on an accent wall or as an accent colour in a muted-tone peel and stick wallpaper.
2. Leafy Green
Inspired by the neutral colours of nature, this leaf-green tone is a perfect addition to your home design. This organic colour can surround your home as a main wallpaper theme or act as a great complementary colour in a wall mural. The neutral shade of green pairs well with creamy colours and beige overtones.
"Because of its organic feel and warm undertones, a leafy green pairs beautifully with creamy whites, cozy beiges, light to medium wood tones, and leafy house plants."
3. Yellow Popcorn
Rather than a vibrant yellow, this soft, buttery yellow tone is a perfect choice for a neutral living space. The pale colour tone fits perfectly with natural themes like bohemian style. The playful colour is also perfect for a fresh nursery or fun playroom.
"Bright and cheery, this popcorn yellow radiates warmth to all who embrace it," says House Beautiful. Our yellow custom wall murals provide great colour in any size.
4. October Mist
Sage-grey greens remain a mainstay in home decor, and this October Mist tone injects a natural, greenish hue that fits perfectly into almost any theme.
"Evoking the silver-green stem of a flower, October Mist creates a canvas for other colours — and your imagination — to blossom," says Benjamin Moore. This off-green colour features a pale, pastel feel that complements pale pinks and sky blues well. Use a removable wallpaper mural featuring this colour for any bedroom or living space.
5. Calm Blue
Injecting cool blues into your home decor will no doubt create a fresh new interior. On the brighter side, this calm blue tone is perfect for a beachside look with boho home decor. Use a peel and stick abstract wallpaper showcasing this bright colour for the perfect accent or feature wall.
"This calm blue has the quality of being both soothing and invigorating and offers plenty of design versatility. Used with crisp white, it creates a calming coastal feel, while as one block of colour it can be an enveloping breath of fresh air."
