Wallpaper - Greetings from Idaho - Screenprint Postcard

Our Greetings from Idaho wallpaper brings classic 1940s souvenir style into the home, reproducing the beloved mid-century screenprint postcard aesthetic by The Tichnor Brothers. Large, bold block lettering spells out the state name across the wall, each letter filled with picturesque scenic vistas: mountain roads, a rushing waterfall, calm river crossings, and a lone fisherman casting a line. The Idaho State Capitol and delicate Syringa blossoms frame the foreground, set against an earthy gradient transitioning from warm orange to sky blue. Like all Wallism wallpapers, this design is made to measure and printed on PVC-free paper.

In the room

Because the motif functions as a large-scale graphic statement, we recommend placing this design on a wide, relatively uninterrupted feature wall. It works especially well in a living room, entryway, hallway, home office, or a rustic vacation home where the full horizontal typography has plenty of breathing room. The prominent text and scenic vignettes draw the eye immediately, making it a natural focal point behind a low sofa, a credenza, or along a main hallway where guests can appreciate the fine mid-century print details up close.

Styling it

We suggest balancing the strong graphic energy of the postcard typography with simple, grounded furnishings. Mid-century modern shapes or warm rustic wooden pieces work naturally with the 1940s travel aesthetic. To keep the focus on the vibrant lettering and vintage scenes, choose low-profile furniture and unpatterned upholstery rather than competing prints.

Color combinations

The wallpaper features a rich palette anchored by sky blue, warm earthy orange, forest greens, and the golden dome of the Capitol building. To complement these shades, we love pairing the mural with warm white, muted tan, or soft terracotta tones on adjacent walls and trim. Deep navy or olive accents in textiles and painted cabinetry can also echo the natural landscape tones inside the lettering without overwhelming the space.
