Wallpaper - Greetings from Sunny Florida - Screenprint Postcard

Our Greetings from Sunny Florida wallpaper brings vintage mid-century coastal charm to life with a classic postcard aesthetic. Originally produced by The Tichnor Brothers, this design captures a small wooden sailboat slicing through choppy blue-green waves, its tall white sail catching the coastal breeze. Three crew members lean into the turn as sea spray kicks up around the hull, set against a horizon dotted with distant sailing boats and motor craft under a soft sky tinged with pale yellow and pink. The nostalgic printed text "Going at Full Speed in Sunny Florida" adds authentic retro character. Produced as PVC-free, made-to-measure wall murals, this design combines timeless maritime style with easy installation.

In the room

We see this wallpaper working especially well as an accent wall in a living room, hallway, or coastal vacation home. Because the composition has strong movement from right to left and features a prominent mast extending vertically, it naturally anchors a room when placed on a wide, relatively uninterrupted wall. In a home office or study, positioning the design behind a desk creates an inspiring backdrop without overwhelming the workspace. The lighter sky tones across the upper half of the motif help maintain an airy feel, making it suitable even in rooms with standard ceiling heights.

Styling it

To complement the vintage screenprint look of this mural, we suggest pairing it with clean-lined mid-century or coastal furniture.

• Warm wood tones, such as teak or honeyed pine, echo the natural timber of the boat hull and create an organic connection with the illustration.
• Low-profile seating in neutral or off-white upholstery keeps the focus on the vibrant scene without competing for attention.
• Crisp nautical accents, such as brushed brass fixtures or subtle navy textiles, reinforce the maritime theme without feeling cluttered.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper features a balanced palette of steel blue, seafoam green, soft sky blue, warm ochre, and subtle sunset pinks. To build a cohesive interior, consider pairing this design with wall paints in soft sand, off-white, or muted pale blue on surrounding walls. If you prefer deeper contrast, navy blue or forest green can be introduced through accent cushions, painted woodwork, or cabinetry to draw out the deeper tones of the ocean waves.
