Vintage Storybook Birds Pattern Collection

Vintage bird patterns for fabric, wallpaper and storybook-inspired home decor

Ever flipped through a mid-century children's book and wished your walls looked like that? This collection is for you.

Trailing vine wallpaper in deep teal behind a cream skirted sofa with ginger jar lamps
Scattered Buds in blue, a 24 inch repeat shown at true scale. A big open trail like this is what keeps a dark wall from closing a room in.
Golden wallpaper with cream birds behind an upholstered bed in a beamed farmhouse bedroom
Scattered Birds in yellow. Warm gold does the same job as a neutral in a beamed room, but you still get birds at eye level when you are lying down.
Near black wallpaper with gold sprigs behind a kitchen dresser of copper pans and blue and white china
Scattered Buds in near black, papered inside a dresser rather than across a whole wall. It is the cheapest way to use a bold pattern, and copper and blue-and-white both lift off it.

You'll see a few distinct traditions at work in my designs here. Mid-century illustration gives them their stylized charm: birds perched among bold, simplified florals.

French country brings the warmth, with climbing vines and scattered blooms in soft, livable palettes. Then there's cottagecore, which ties it all together: romantic, minus the fuss.

The bird-and-floral patterns anchor the collection. Their illustrated birds are tucked into art deco-influenced compositions.

Around them you'll find the coordinating prints: ditsy flower buds, climbing vines, and elegant scattered florals that work as companion fabrics or stand on their own.

Warm or cool? You get both. The colorways run from warm apricots and goldenrods to cool teals, soft pinks, and deep navies.

You can pull three or four prints from this collection and they'll just work together.

Try the birds as wallpaper on an accent wall, curtains in the climbing vines, and throw pillows in the ditsy florals, then layer them for a nursery, a reading nook, or a kitchen that feels like it has a story behind it.

Decorating a nursery? My Cute Country Geese collection has coordinating plaids that pair well with these. For more ideas on styling bird prints in your home, see the guide to mixing bird decor into a modern space.

They're available in 30 fabric types, 6 wallpaper bases, and a range of made-to-order home decor.

Storybook birds curtain panel in tan hanging at a tall window in a traditional living room
The same collection as curtains. A 12 inch repeat on a floor-length panel gives you about seven full repeats top to bottom, so the pattern still reads once the fabric gathers.
Storybook birds throw pillow in dark green on a white sofa
Scattered birds on a throw pillow. Grandmillennial rooms layer pattern, so one cushion in the collection's darkest colorway is usually the easiest way in.
