Wallpaper - Greetings from Idaho - Screenprint Postcard

Our Greetings from Idaho wall mural brings mid-century American travel nostalgia straight into the home. Styled after classic mid-twentieth-century souvenir postcards by The Tichnor Brothers, the design centres on large block lettering with individual scenes framed inside each letter, from a fisherman casting into a river to winding mountain passes, waterfalls, and bridges. The golden dome of the Idaho State Capitol sits prominently in the foreground alongside white Syringa blossom, set against a warm gradient of earthy orange fading up to sky blue. Produced as made-to-measure, PVC-free mural wallpapers with a subtle physical structure in the paper, this is a distinctive retro piece that celebrates regional landscape art.

In the room

Because the large typographic lettering and multiple scenic insets form one central focal point, we recommend placing this design on an open, relatively uninterrupted wall. A living room, hallway, home office, or vacation home living area provides the breadth needed to let the full postcard composition remain clearly visible.

The mural works particularly well as a dedicated feature wall where the central graphic is not bisected by tall storage units or large wardrobes. In a dining area or behind a lower-profile sofa, the horizontal span allows both the bold typography and the finer landscape vignettes inside each letter to be appreciated from across the room as well as up close.

Styling it

The graphic mid-century aesthetic and screenprint-inspired look of our wallpaper pair naturally with mid-century modern, retro, and relaxed vintage interiors.

To keep the visual focus on the detailed lettering and landscapes, we suggest surrounding the wall with simpler furniture silhouettes. Low credenzas or sideboards in warm timber finishes provide an earthy, grounded base that mirrors the warm orange tones of the lower print. Keep decorative accessories uncomplicated and let the artwork carry the storytelling in the space.

Colour combinations

The palette in our wallpaper centres on a transition between sky blue and warm, earthy orange, accented by the gold of the capitol dome, the deep greens of the mountain scenery, and the white Syringa petals.

When choosing paint colours for adjoining walls and woodwork, drawing out the soft sky blue or a muted, chalky off-white will keep the surrounding space feeling bright and balanced. Alternatively, deeper forest greens or warm terracotta and clay shades picked from the landscape scenes work wonderfully on adjacent painted joinery, framing the mural in a rich, cohesive way.
