Buzz through spring with the Bee Pollination STEAM Activity! Now that more and more bees are coming out after the cold winter, it's the perfect time to teach children about how bees and flowers help each other out to accomplish each other's goals: Flowers getting pollinated and bees gathering nectar for honey. Children will enjoy flying their little bee buddies around and helping them gather pollen to deliver from flower to flower.
This new collaboration with Winwick Mum captures her seasonal memories in four special Signature 4ply sock designs. Let’s begin with Spring; where new life emerges, leaves unfurl and primroses dot the hedgerows. Next comes Summer filled with the scent of magnificent flowers, buzzing bees and the bright afternoon sun. Then Autumn – early morning mist burns away to reveal spectacular colours. The red, brown and yellow leaves fall and crunch beneath your feet. Finally, Winter with its feathery, frosty patterns, sparkling stars, icy air and warm wool socks next to a crackling log fire. We are all connected and inspired by these magical seasons, from the things we see, to the things we do, and the things we create.

We custom designed this botanical print to include delicate mini pink flowers blooming through the lemons and little bees buzzing about. Look closely and you'll find a happy little ladybug.

Figured if we designed one on your wallpaper, the person whose house this paper has gotten installed into would have a house full of joy and good fortune! We've printed this custom design on our eco-friendly textured all-natural wallpaper. This joyfully feminine Pretty in Pink and White lattice striped fruit wallpaper would be perfect for a coastal kitchen breakfast nook or a cottage mud room. Want to see more food inspired prints, check out the whole collection here. What’s the deal with Grasscloth vs Paper Weave you ask? Both are all natural and eco-friendly wallpaper options. Grasscloth is made from individual strands of sisal woven together and then fused with a paper backing. Grasscloth often comes with subtle variations in texture and color due to its natural material. The base of this paper tends to be a bit more off-white and tan in nature giving a more retro, washed down aesthetic to each of our prints. Paper Weave is made from individual strands of paper woven together in a basketweave looking pattern and then fused to a paper backing. The base of this paper is closer to a brighter white. When printed on, our designs tend to execute much brighter and more vibrant in comparison to grasscloth. All in the Details: Printed on paper-backed woven natural fiber wallpaper Roll: 36" wide, approximately 34" after double cutting Repeat: 34" wide by 34" long Pattern Match: straight match Double-Cut: hand trimming required Traditional Application: requires wallpaper paste Samples ship in 7-10 days Paper Ships in 14-21 days Don't you, forget about me... We practice on-demand manufacturing which means each order is tailor made for you and is non-refundable. Our samples are a great reference for paper quality, scale and technique, but pretty please don't use them for color matching. There can be slight variations in color between printing runs so your paper color may vary slightly from your sample. Do your math and check it twice, we can't guarantee that rolls printed in different batches will be an exact match so be sure you order enough the first time around. BTW, I'm a bit high-maintenance, even if you've got experience hanging paper, we recommend professional consultation and installation as grasscloth requires a bit of extra TLC. Find out more about the installation process here. We select high quality wall coverings that are made of only natural materials for our designs. Our wallpaper is eco-friendly using sustainable practices to produce our product. We use only non-toxic chemicals to print and treat our textured wallpaper.
