Wallpaper - Greetings from Lake Winnipesaukee - Screenprint Postcard

Our Greetings from Lake Winnipesaukee wallpaper recreates a classic mid-century postcard style with bold, nostalgic character. Designed from original mid-century postcard art by The Tichnor Brothers, the motif showcases large, dimensional lettering reading "Greetings From Lake Winnipesaukee N.H." filled with scenic lakeside vignettes. Inside the type, you can spot vintage steamships, a stone lighthouse, sailboats, and lush tree-lined shorelines across the water. Set against a sky-blue background accented with energetic yellow and orange diagonal graphic beams, this screenprint-inspired design brings a distinct Americana aesthetic to any feature wall. Like all our wall murals, it is made-to-measure on PVC-free paper featuring a subtle paper structure.

In the room

Because of the bold, large-scale lettering and vibrant composition, this design works best when given an uninterrupted wall where the full graphic layout can be appreciated from a slight distance. In a living room, family lounge, or open hallway, it immediately establishes a playful, nostalgic focal point. We also love seeing this mural wallpaper in a holiday home, lake house, or guest bedroom, where its relaxed summer holiday feel sets an inviting, retro tone. To let the vintage graphics take centre stage, we suggest placing it on a wall without high bookcases or tall wardrobes blocking the central lettering.

Styling it

When decorating around a graphic vintage mural like this, we like balancing its playful mid-century mood with warm, grounded interior elements.

• Pair the artwork with warm wood furniture, such as mid-century teak or warm oak, which complements the nostalgic 1940s postcard aesthetic.
• Keep primary upholstery in neutral, tactile fabrics like off-white canvas, denim blue, or warm linen to let the colourful wall murals remain the visual centrepiece.
• Introduce understated vintage accents, such as retro metal desk lamps or simple ceramic vessels, echoing the classic Americana theme without cluttering the space.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper features a bright sky blue foundation paired with punchy orange, warm ochre, and leafy greens captured inside the scenic lettering. When choosing surrounding wall paints, an off-white or light warm grey allows the design to stand out crisply without competing. If you want to carry the palette further into the room, consider accents in muted rust, deep navy, or warm mustard yellow through cushions, throws, or painted woodwork.
