Wallpaper - Greetings from Delaware - Screenprint Postcard

Our Greetings from Delaware wallpaper brings the nostalgic charm of classic mid-century travel souvenirs into a large-scale graphic composition. Designed with the distinctive aesthetic of vintage screenprint postcards, the large block lettering across the center frames illustrated vignettes of iconic First State imagery, including coastal scenes, a lighthouse, historic landmarks, the State Capitol in Dover, a horse race, and Delaware's state peach blossom. Set against rich tones of sky blue, warm orange, and sunny yellow, this piece offers strong graphic energy and retro character. Like all our wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure to fit your wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper.

In the room

Because the motif functions as a bold, complete artwork, we see this working best on an open, uninterrupted wall where the full graphic layout and typography can be viewed from a distance. It makes an engaging focal point in a living room, entryway, or home office, and brings natural character to a vacation home. Giving the design its own dedicated accent wall allows the rich illustrations inside the lettering to stand out without competing with nearby wall hangings.

Styling it

To balance the bold graphic quality of the postcard design, we suggest keeping surrounding furniture relatively straightforward. Mid-century modern furniture shapes, clean retro silhouettes, or warm wood pieces complement the 1940s travel aesthetic naturally without overwhelming the space. Choosing solid colors for larger upholstered pieces and textiles helps frame the wall mural and lets the visual storytelling remain the focus of the room.

Color combinations

The wallpaper features a lively palette of sky blue, sunny yellow, vibrant orange, and earthy landscape accents. To create a cohesive look around the wall, you can pull the sky blue or a soft off-white onto adjacent painted walls and woodwork to maintain an airy feel. For a more graphic, mid-century atmosphere, subtle touches of muted navy or warm ochre in surrounding accents will echo the deeper tones within the illustrations.
