Description
What colours are used in the Flushing Cranes design?
The design sits on a pale dove-grey ground with soft blush pink peonies and blossoms, balanced by slate blue-grey crane plumage. Under the hard, bright daylight common on the Highveld, this kind of saturated pink against blue-grey holds its depth rather than washing out, while the pale grey keeps the overall effect airy rather than heavy.
How big do the crane and flower motifs look on a wall?
The cranes and peonies are drawn at a large scale, so only a few repeats are needed to fill a wall and the motif reads clearly from across a room. It works best as a single feature wall rather than wrapping right around a space, letting the birds and blooms stay legible rather than crowded.
Which room works best for this wallpaper?
Its soft pinks and formal, oriental-inspired figures suit a bedroom or dining room feature wall, though it also reads well in a hallway where guests pass it at a distance. Pair it with plain painted walls elsewhere in the room, timber or linen furnishings, and keep other patterns to a minimum so the cranes remain the focus.
Will the cranes and flowers line up properly between panels?
Yes. The panels are numbered when printed, and hanging them in that order from one edge of the wall across keeps the peonies, blossoms and crane figures aligned at each seam. Unrolling and numbering the drops as you go, then working left to right, is the simplest way to keep the sequence correct.
Does a large design like this waste more paper when it's trimmed?
A motif of this scale needs a little more trimming than a small, dense pattern to bring the repeat into alignment at the ceiling and skirting. This is allowed for when the order is printed to your wall measurements, so it doesn't affect how the finished wall looks, only the amount cut to get there.
