Wallpaper - Greetings from Williston - Screenprint Postcard

Our Greetings from Williston wallpaper brings mid-century Americana to life through a classic large-letter postcard motif. Created in the distinctive 1940s screenprint style of The Tichnor Brothers, the design spells out "Greetings from Williston, North Dakota" in bold, dimensional block letters. Each letter serves as a miniature window into local scenes, showcasing historic buildings, a classic red vintage car, leafy trees, and a sunlit swimming pool against an open blue sky. Warm coral, bright orange, and golden yellow tones combine with crisp sky blues, giving the artwork an authentic retro character. Like all our wall murals, this design is made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle paper texture, making it straightforward to hang.

In the room

Because this design functions as a complete illustrative scene rather than a repeating pattern, we like giving it a prominent, uninterrupted wall where the full typography and detailed letter vignettes can be appreciated without interruption. In a living room or a vacation home, it works naturally as a central focal point behind a sofa or across a main entertaining wall. The graphic scale also translates well into a spacious hallway or home entryway, where the postcard layout creates an immediate sense of arrival. Giving the wall enough breathing room allows the individual vignettes inside each letter to draw the eye in for a closer look.

Styling it

The graphic presence and strong mid-century aesthetic of this design pair well with vintage, retro, or mid-century modern furniture. We recommend balancing the lively artwork with furniture that has clean, architectural silhouettes:

• Choose warm mid-tone wood furniture, such as walnut or teak credenzas and sideboards, which harmonize naturally with the 1940s illustrative style without competing with the bold lettering.
• Anchor the seating area with upholstery in tailored neutral fabrics, keeping larger furniture pieces relatively quiet so the wall mural remains the visual centerpiece.
• Incorporate subtle accents that pick up the design's retro Americana mood, such as simple ceramic table lamps or low-profile leather armchairs.

Color combinations

The wallpaper features a vibrant mid-century palette anchored by rich coral, bright orange, sunny yellow, warm brick red, and crisp sky blue. When selecting surrounding wall paint, soft warm whites, light cream, or gentle pale sand provide a clean background that keeps the room open while letting the colors in the artwork pop. If you prefer a richer, more cohesive look, pulling a deeper terracotta, dusty coral, or warm ochre from the letters onto adjacent trim, baseboards, or nearby doors adds tailored depth to the space.
