Wallpaper - Greetings from Harwichport - Screenprint Postcard

Our Greetings from Harwichport wallpaper captures the charm of a classic mid-century souvenir postcard, created in the distinctive style of The Tichnor Brothers. Large, bold lettering spelling out "Greetings From Harwichport, Cape Cod, Mass." stretches across the wall, with each letter framed like a miniature window into seaside life. Inside the letterforms, you will find nostalgic coastal scenes featuring sailboats on calm water, sunny beaches, and waterfront houses. Rendered in soft pastel blues, warm yellows, and earthy pink tones, the screenprint-inspired design brings a relaxed retro character to any interior. Like all our wall murals, this design is made-to-measure to your exact wall dimensions, printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, and designed to be straightforward to hang.

In the room

Because the design centres around a single large graphic motif, we find it works best on a wider, uninterrupted wall where the full typography and coastal vignettes can be seen without tall furniture breaking up the lettering. In a living room, dining space, or open entryway, giving the mural wallpaper a dedicated feature wall creates an immediate visual anchor. It also feels completely at home in a holiday cottage, guest bedroom, or lake house setting where you want to lean into an easygoing maritime mood. If your room has good natural daylight, the gentle pastel tones and delicate print textures across the lettering become especially crisp and inviting.

Styling it

The Americana aesthetic and vintage print character give you plenty of direction when choosing surrounding pieces. We suggest pairing this design with relaxed, casual furnishings rather than anything overly formal:

• Choose painted furniture in muted off-whites, sea greens, or warm pale woods that complement the coastal theme without competing with the bold central lettering.
• Keep nearby textiles simple and textured, opting for plain cotton or washed fabrics in sandy, neutral shades to balance the illustrative detail in the print.
• Anchor the room with a plain woven flatweave rug in a soft oat or natural tone to let the colourful wall mural remain the clear focal point of the space.

Colour combinations

The design itself is built on a soft palette of ocean blue, pastel yellow, sandy cream, and subtle pinks. When decorating the rest of the room, we suggest drawing out the pale blue or sandy base tones for adjacent walls and painted trim. If you prefer a lighter, airier look, a warm chalky white keeps the space bright while allowing the pastel tones of the wallpaper to stand out clearly. For smaller accents and decorative pieces, warm ochre, muted navy, or soft terracotta tones tie in naturally with the vintage ink colours used throughout the illustration.
