Wallpaper - Greetings from Connecticut - Screenprint Postcard

Our Greetings from Connecticut wallpaper recreates the nostalgic appeal of a classic mid-century screenprint postcard, created by The Tichnor Brothers. Bold, dimensional lettering spells out the greeting across the center, with each letter framed around picturesque Connecticut scenes including coastal lighthouses, harbor views, historic watermills, and scenic garden landscapes. The Connecticut State Capitol grounds the lower section, surrounded by soft pink Mountain Laurel blossoms and rich green foliage. Set against a gentle sky-blue and sunshine-yellow gradient, this design brings graphic mid-century Americana to a feature wall. Like all Wallism wallpapers, it is custom made-to-measure and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

This design works wonderfully in an entryway, living room, home office, or hallway where the large-scale typography and detailed vignettes have space to capture attention. Because the artwork functions as a self-contained postcard composition, we recommend giving it an uninterrupted wall so the full graphic lettering and surrounding floral borders remain visible. In a guest room or vacation home, it establishes an inviting, nostalgic atmosphere without overwhelming the rest of the room.

Styling it

To let the graphic artwork stand out, we suggest pairing this design with relatively understated furnishings. Mid-century modern wooden pieces in warm birch, honey oak, or maple complement the retro print style naturally. Simple painted furniture in off-white or muted navy also harmonizes with the coastal elements in the illustration. We would keep nearby decor clean and functional, allowing the typography and illustrated landmarks to act as the primary visual focus.

Colour combinations

The palette is built around a bright sunshine yellow and sky blue gradient, accented by soft pink floral tones, rich garden greens, and deep navy outlines within the lettering. Around the mural wallpapers, we recommend pairing adjacent walls with soft warm white, pale buttery cream, or a light sky blue picked from the backdrop. If you prefer deeper contrast, a classic navy blue on woodwork or accent pieces grounds the lighter pastels in the design.
