Wallpaper - Greetings from St Joseph - Screenprint Postcard

Our Greetings from St Joseph wallpaper brings the vibrant spirit of mid-century travel souvenirs into the home. Based on an authentic mid-century screenprint postcard design by The Tichnor Brothers, the motif centres around bold, dimensional block lettering filled with scenic lakeside views, sandy shores, sailing boats, and lush landscapes. Soft white blossom clusters frame the central lettering, set against a graphic backdrop of sky blue, warm yellow, and gentle green tones. As with all our wall murals, this design is made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, creating an expressive focal point with genuine retro character.

In the room

Because of the bold, typographic layout and wide focal area, we see this design working particularly well as an accent wall in a living room, hallway, or holiday home. The horizontal emphasis of the large lettering naturally anchors a room, making it an ideal backdrop behind a low sofa, a credenza, or along a main entrance wall where the full graphic composition can be appreciated without heavy visual interruption. In a dedicated home office or creative studio, the bright coastal palette and nostalgic charm bring an upbeat, decorative energy to the space.

Styling it

When styling around such a colourful, graphic mural wallpaper, we suggest keeping surrounding elements grounded to let the artwork take centre stage. Clean-lined mid-century furniture, warm wood pieces in teak or honey oak, and unpretentious seating pair naturally with the 1940s vintage aesthetic. To complement the print's screenprinted character without competing with its details, opt for simple, solid-toned ceramics and tactile woven textiles in neutral shades.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper features a bright and cheerful palette of sky blue, sunny yellow, leaf green, and crisp white, accented by deep graphic shadows. For adjacent painted walls and woodwork, soft off-whites, warm ivory, or a pale, muted sand create a calm, balanced envelope that lets the mural pop. If you prefer a richer look, picking up on the sky blue or incorporating subtle mustard yellow accents across cushions or secondary furniture pieces will tie the whole room together effortlessly.
