Christmas 2026
Order wallpaper by Monday 30 November for delivery before Christmas.
We’ll send your proof within 2 to 3 working days. Approve it by Tuesday 8 December and your wallpaper will be printed and sent by DPD tracked delivery before we close.
Our dates are order-by dates. They’re the last day to place your order with us, allowing time to prepare your proof, then 7 working days to print and despatch once you’ve approved it. They're not delivery dates. We'll do everything we can to get your order out on time, but once a parcel leaves us it's in the hands of the carrier, and Christmas is their busiest time of year.
