Fall hits different when your home actually feels like fall. If your walls still scream summer or basic beige, it’s time for a seasonal glow-up. We’re talking wallpaper designs that add depth, texture, and that unmistakable cozy energy. You don’t need a full reno. You don’t need design school. You need wallpaper that works.
Here are 9 fall-inspired wallpaper styles that instantly change the vibe — no matter your budget, space, or DIY skill level.
Moody Florals
Moody floral wallpaper is bold, dramatic, and made for fall. Deep burgundy, charcoal, forest green, and muted plum tones turn basic walls into a visual statement.
Why it works:
- Adds a cozy, layered look without actual clutter
- Works in small doses — like one accent wall or powder room
- Pairs well with gold, matte black, or dark wood finishes
Pro Tip: If you rent, try peel-and-stick options that come off clean with no damage.
Plaid and Tartan Prints
You can’t think of fall without thinking plaid. Tartan-style wallpaper brings that classic autumn cabin feel, but make it modern.
Use it in:
- An entryway or hallway to warm up the space
- A breakfast nook or coffee corner
- Kid’s room or guest bath for a playful touch
Choose:
- Neutrals like tan, black, cream for a grown-up vibe
- Rust and ochre for a more rustic, seasonal look
Textured Neutrals
Think linen, grasscloth, and woven-look wallpaper. These bring visual warmth without being loud.
Perfect for:
- Layered, minimalist fall interiors
- Scandinavian or Japandi-inspired rooms
- Spaces where you want subtle fall texture, not theme overload
Bonus: These add dimension and hide wall imperfections better than paint.

Wood Panel Wallpaper
Wood wallpaper is one of the easiest ways to fake a rustic or cozy farmhouse vibe.

- Weathered barnwood (more rustic fall look)
Where to use:
- Dining areas

Burnt Orange and Terracotta Tones
Fall is the time to go all in on warm, rich color. Wallpaper in burnt orange, rust, cinnamon, or clay gives your space a lived-in, earthy feel.
Design styles to look for:
- Geometric or vintage patterns
- Abstract lines
- Color-blocked murals with warm undertones
These work surprisingly well in modern or mid-century spaces.
Dark Academia Wallpaper
Fall isn’t all pumpkins and candles. For a moodier, bookish aesthetic, try wallpaper that channels a dark academia vibe.
Look for:
- Victorian-inspired prints
- Deep browns, oxblood, navy, and forest tones
- Subtle motifs like old books, quills, or antique florals

Woodland and Botanical Prints
You don’t have to live in the woods to bring the outside in.
This style includes:
- Ferns, pinecones, mushrooms, bare branches
- Subtle sketches or painterly designs
- Muted green, bronze, and natural tones
It’s fall meets forest without being too kitschy.
Vintage Wallpaper with a Twist
Think 70s revival but with a fall filter. These patterns lean funky but still feel warm and nostalgic.
Best picks:
- Retro florals in amber, ochre, and maroon
- Art deco fan patterns with copper or brass details
- Mid-century mod geometrics with fall color palettes
This look is great for renters who want personality in a small space.
Cozy Cottagecore Prints
Cottagecore and fall are basically soulmates. This look brings soft, romantic, slightly whimsical energy to any room.
Common motifs:

Wallpaper Application Tips
Let’s talk real-life stuff. A beautiful wallpaper pattern means nothing if it bubbles, peels, or slants.
| Tip | Why It Matters |
|---|---|
| Use a level | Eyeballing never works. Trust me. |
| Clean the wall first | Dust or oil will ruin adhesion. |
| Start in the least visible corner | So if you mess up, it’s not front and center. |
| Cut a little extra | Trim after applying for cleaner edges. |
| Renting? | Always go with peel-and-stick and test a sample first. |
